2 * findsuper --- quick hacked up program to find ext2 superblocks.
3 *
4 * This is a hack, and really shouldn't be installed anywhere.  If you
5 * need a program which does this sort of functionality, please try
6 * using gpart program.
7 *

10 * Well, here's my linux version of findsuper.
11 * I'm sure you coulda done it faster.  :)
12 * IMHO there isn't as much interesting data to print in the
13 * linux superblock as there is in the SunOS superblock--disk geometry is
14 * not there...and linux seems to update the dates in all the superblocks.
15 * SunOS doesn't ever touch the backup superblocks after the fs is created,
16 * as far as I can tell, so the date is more interesting IMHO and certainly
17 * marks which superblocks are backup ones.
18 *
19 * I wanted to add msdos support, but I couldn't make heads or tails
20 * of the kernel include files to find anything I could look for in msdos.
21 *
22 * Reading every block of a Sun partition is fairly quick.  Doing the
23 * same under linux (slower hardware I suppose) just isn't the same.
24 * It might be more useful to default to reading the first (second?) block
25 * on each cyl; however, if the disk geometry is wrong, this is useless.
26 * But ya could still get the cyl size to print the numbers as cyls instead
27 * of blocks...
28 *
29 * run this as (for example)
30 *   findsuper /dev/hda
31 *   findsuper /dev/hda 437760 1024   (my disk has cyls of 855*512)
32 *
33 * I suppose the next step is to figgure out a way to determine if
34 * the block found is the first superblock somehow, and if so, build
35 * a partition table from the superblocks found... but this is still
36 * useful as is.

42 * Additional notes by Andreas Dilger <adilger@turbolinux.com>:
43 * - fixed to support > 2G devices by using lseek64
44 * - add reliability checking for the superblock to avoid random garbage
45 * - add adaptive progress meter
46 *
47 * It _should_ also handle signals and tell you the ending block, so
48 * that you can resume at a later time, but it doesn't yet...
49 *
50 * Note that gpart does not appear to find all superblocks that aren't aligned
51 * with the start of a possible partition, so it is not useful in systems
52 * with LVM or similar setups which don't use fat partition alignment.

61 * Documentation addendum added by Andreas dwguest@win.tue.nl/aeb@cwi.nl
62 *
63 * The program findsuper is a utility that scans a disk and finds
64 * copies of ext2 superblocks (by checking for the ext2 signature).
65 *
66 * For each superblock found, it prints the offset in bytes, the
67 * offset in 1024-byte blocks, the size of the ext2 partition in fs
68 * blocks, the filesystem blocksize (in bytes), the block group number
69 * (always 0 for older ext2 systems), and a timestamp (s_mtime).
70 *
71 * This program can be used to retrieve partitions that have been
72 * lost.  The superblock for block group 0 is found 1 block (2
73 * sectors) after the partition start.
74 *
75 * For new systems that have a block group number in the superblock it
76 * is immediately clear which superblock is the first of a partition.
77 * For old systems where no group numbers are given, the first
78 * superblock can be recognised by the timestamp: all superblock
79 * copies have the creation time in s_mtime, except the first, which
80 * has the last time e2fsck or tune2fs wrote to the filesystem.
