The implemented cloning mechanism should be sound:
- If a PartitionTable is passed a File with
ShouldCloseFileDescriptor::Yes, then it will keep it alive until the
PartitionTable is destroyed.
- If a PartitionTable is passed a File with
ShouldCloseFileDescriptor::No, then the caller has to ensure that the
file descriptor remains alive.
If the caller is EBRPartitionTable, the same consideration holds.
If the caller is PartitionEditor::PartitionModel, this is satisfied by
keeping an OwnPtr<Core::File> around which is the originally opened
file.
Therefore, we never leak any fds, and never access a Core::File or fd
after destroying it.
Otherwise, we end up propagating those dependencies into targets that
link against that library, which creates unnecessary link-time
dependencies.
Also included are changes to readd now missing dependencies to tools
that actually need them.
Previously, PartitionTable was constructed using a Kernel::StorageDevice
making it only usable in the kernel. This commit adds a new constructor
that takes a Core::File instead, making it usable in userland as well.
This also adds the m_block_size field which stores the block size of the
underlying device obtained by calling StorageDevice::block_size() in the
kernel or by using the STORAGE_DEVICE_GET_BLOCK_SIZE ioctl in userland.
This avoids the need for an #ifdef every time block size is needed.
This commit creates a new library LibPartition which will contain
partition related code sharable between Kernel and Userland and
includes DiskPartitionMetadata as the first shared class.
