# GPT Partition table patterns.
# Author: Rogier Goossens (goossens.rogier@gmail.com)
# Note that a GPT-formatted disk must contain an MBR as well.
#

# The initial segment (up to >>>>>>>>422) was copied from the X86
# partition table code (aka MBR).
# This is kept separate, so that MBR partitions are not reported as well.
# (use -k if you do want them as well)

# First, detect the MBR partition table
# If more than one GPT protective MBR partition exists, don't print anything
# (the other MBR detection code will then just print the MBR partition table)

# The following code does GPT detection and processing, including
# sector size detection.
# It has to be duplicated above because the top-level pattern
# (i.e. not called using 'use') must print *something* for file
# to count it as a match. Text only printed in named patterns is
# not counted, and causes file to continue, and try and match
# other patterns.
#
# Unfortunately, when assuming sector sizes >=16k, if the sector size
# happens to be 512 instead, we may find confusing data after the GPT
# table...  If the GPT table has less than 128 entries, this may even
# happen for assumed sector sizes as small as 4k
# This could be solved by checking for the presence of the backup GPT
# header as well, but that makes the logic extremely complex
