Re: [PATCH 1/3] MdeModulePkg/PartitionDxe: Put the UDF check ahead of MBR


Ni, Ray
 

Zhichao,
Can you also add notes in the commit message describing that for some ISOs (better with more specific ISO info), the MBR information is not correct?

Thanks,
Ray

Subject: [PATCH 1/3] MdeModulePkg/PartitionDxe: Put the UDF check ahead of MBR

REF: https://bugzilla.tianocore.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2823

Refer to UEFI spec 2.8, Section 13.3.2, a block device should
be scanned as below order:
1. GPT
2. ISO 9660 (El Torito) (UDF should aslo be here)
3. MBR
4. no partition found
Note: UDF is using the same boot method as CD, so put it in
the same priority with ISO 9660.

This would also solve the issue that ISO image with MBR would
be treat as MBR device instead of CD/DVD. That would make the
behavior of the image boot different.
