Update GPT partition types from the Discoverable Partitions Spec
The old list at freedesktop got replaced by the an updated list that includes new types for all architectures and common mount points from http://systemd.io/DISCOVERABLE_PARTITIONS/
Hmm, good point. This has been off our radar for a while.
@vojtechtrefny, looking at this crazy list, is there a way to source this from libfdisk?
I've checked that all are present with systemd-id128 show -u | awk '{print $2}' | tail -n +2 | xargs -I '{}' sh -c "grep -i '{}' udisks/udisksclient.c || echo failure: '{}'"
The problem with sourcing is that the names may need some patching, e.g., instead of (32-bit MIPS LittleEndian (mipsel)) I went with (32-bit MIPS LittleEndian/mipsel).
Actually, https://github.com/util-linux/util-linux/blob/master/include/pt-gpt-partnames.h uses even different names.
@bluca said that systemd v252 will export them in sd-library headers and we could consume them from there - question is whether that works with translations.
UDisks is systemd-independent and has to stay this way. These definitions should ideally be provided by util-linux. One can argue however that it's the task for higher levels...
This looks good for now, but we really should get rid of the definitions if possible. The libfdisk list looks like a good candidate -- the names are different but not that much different and using same "terminology" as libfdisk might be good for users too.
