/**
 * SECTION: partitions
 * @title: Partitions probing
 * @short_description: partitions tables detection and parsing
 *
 * This chain supports binary and NAME=value interfaces, but complete PT
 * description is provided by binary interface only. The libblkid prober is
 * compatible with kernel partition tables parser. The parser does not return
 * empty (size=0) partitions or special hidden partitions.
 *
 * NAME=value interface, supported tags:
 *
 * @PTTYPE: partition table type (dos, gpt, etc.).
 *
 * @PTUUID: partition table id (uuid for gpt, hex for dos).

 * @PART_ENTRY_SCHEME: partition table type
 *
 * @PART_ENTRY_NAME: partition name (gpt and mac only)
 *
 * @PART_ENTRY_UUID: partition UUID (gpt, or pseudo IDs for MBR)
 *
 * @PART_ENTRY_TYPE: partition type, 0xNN (e.g 0x82) or type UUID (gpt only) or type string (mac)
 *
 * @PART_ENTRY_FLAGS: partition flags (e.g. boot_ind) or  attributes (e.g. gpt attributes)
 *
 * @PART_ENTRY_NUMBER: partition number
 *
 * @PART_ENTRY_OFFSET: the begin of the partition
 *
 * @PART_ENTRY_SIZE: size of the partition
 *
 * @PART_ENTRY_DISK: whole-disk maj:min
 *
 * Example:
 *
 * <informalexample>
 *  <programlisting>
 * blkid_probe pr;
 * const char *ptname;
 *
 * pr = blkid_new_probe_from_filename(devname);
 * if (!pr)
 *	err("%s: failed to open device", devname);
 *
 * blkid_probe_enable_partitions(pr, TRUE);
 * blkid_do_fullprobe(pr);
 *
 * blkid_probe_lookup_value(pr, "PTTYPE", &ptname, NULL);
 * printf("%s partition type detected\n", pttype);
 *
 * blkid_free_probe(pr);
 *
 * // don't forget to check return codes in your code!
 *  </programlisting>
 * </informalexample>
 *
 * Binary interface:
 *
 * <informalexample>
 *  <programlisting>
 * blkid_probe pr;
 * blkid_partlist ls;
 * int nparts, i;
 *
 * pr = blkid_new_probe_from_filename(devname);
 * if (!pr)
 *	err("%s: failed to open device", devname);
 *
 * ls = blkid_probe_get_partitions(pr);
 * nparts = blkid_partlist_numof_partitions(ls);
 *
 * for (i = 0; i < nparts; i++) {
 *      blkid_partition par = blkid_partlist_get_partition(ls, i);
 *      printf("#%d: %llu %llu  0x%x",
 *               blkid_partition_get_partno(par),
 *               blkid_partition_get_start(par),
 *               blkid_partition_get_size(par),
 *               blkid_partition_get_type(par));
 * }
 *
 * blkid_free_probe(pr);
 *
 * // don't forget to check return codes in your code!
 *  </programlisting>
 * </informalexample>
