[PATCH v2 1/2] part: detect EFI system partition

Heinrich Schuchardt xypron.glpk at gmx.de
Sun Apr 5 11:28:17 CEST 2020


Up to now for MBR and GPT partitions the info field 'bootable' was set to 1
if either the partition was an EFI system partition or the bootable flag
was set.

Turn info field 'bootable' into a bit mask with separate bits for bootable
and EFI system partition.

This will allow us to identify the EFI system partition in the UEFI
sub-system.
