1. 概述
在 GPT分区表 一文中,讲解了MBR分区表的一些概念。本文进一步给出了Windows系统上读取MBR的示例代码,以及MBR的具体数据,可进一步加深对MBR的理解。
在参考网上一些文章&代码的基础上,本文给出了下面的展示MBR的示例代码;同时最后针对几个典型问题,给出了一些解释和参考文档。
2. 代码
下面是代码:
/** * ref: http://noyesno.net/page/it/20100701-172 * */ #include <stdio.h> #include <windows.h> struct CHS { unsigned int header; unsigned int sector; unsigned int cylinder; }; struct partition_record { unsigned char boot_indicator; unsigned char os_type; struct CHS starting_chs; struct CHS ending_chs; unsigned int starting_LBA; unsigned int size_in_LBA; }; void dump_partition_record(const partition_record& record) { const double DISK_SECTOR_SIZE = 512.0; const size_t GB = 1024 * 1024 * 1024; printf( "\tboot indicator: 0x%02x\n" "\tOS Type: 0x%02x\n" "\tStarting CHS: (%d, %d, %d)\n" "\tEnding_CHS: (%d, %d, %d)\n" "\tSize in LBA: %d\n" "\tSize:%.2f\n\n", record.boot_indicator, record.os_type, record.starting_chs.cylinder, record.starting_chs.header, record.starting_chs.sector, record.ending_chs.cylinder, record.ending_chs.header, record.ending_chs.sector, record.size_in_LBA, record.size_in_LBA * DISK_SECTOR_SIZE / GB); } // transform the 16-bytes buffer to partition record void get_partition_record(unsigned char buffer[], partition_record& record) { record.boot_indicator = buffer[0]; record.starting_chs.header = buffer[1]; record.starting_chs.sector = buffer[2] & 0x3f; record.starting_chs.cylinder = (((buffer[2] & 0xff) >> 6) << 8) + buffer[3]; record.os_type = buffer[4]; record.ending_chs.header = buffer[5]; record.ending_chs.sector = buffer[6] & 0x3f; record.ending_chs.cylinder = (((buffer[6] & 0xff) >> 6) << 8) + buffer[7]; record.size_in_LBA = *(unsigned int*)(buffer + 12); } void read_mbr(const char *devname){ HANDLE hDevice = CreateFile(devname, GENERIC_READ, FILE_SHARE_WRITE, NULL, OPEN_EXISTING, 0, NULL); if (hDevice == INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE){ printf("Open %s failed, the error code is %d.\n", devname, GetLastError()); return; } DWORD dwRead = 0; const size_t DISK_SECTOR_SIZE = 512; unsigned char buffer[DISK_SECTOR_SIZE]; BOOL bSuccess = ReadFile(hDevice, buffer, DISK_SECTOR_SIZE, &dwRead, NULL); CloseHandle(hDevice); if ( !bSuccess || DISK_SECTOR_SIZE != dwRead) { printf("Error: read error! Read size = %d\n", dwRead); return; } size_t i, j; printf("%10s 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 A B C D E F \n", " "); for (i = 0; i < 32; i++) { printf("%.8XH: ", i); for (j = 0; j < 16; j++) { printf("%.2X ", buffer[i * 16 + j] & 0xFF); } printf("\n"); } printf("====MBR Partition Entries====\n"); partition_record record = {0}; for(i = 0x01be; i < 0x01FE; i += 16){ get_partition_record(buffer + i, record); dump_partition_record(record); } } int main(int argc, char *argv[]){ const char* LOG_FILE = "./log.txt"; freopen(LOG_FILE, "a", stdout); setbuf(stdout, NULL); read_mbr("\\\\.\\PhysicalDrive0"); return 0; }
运行结果如下:

3. 典型问题
3.1 Vista上返回错误码5
vista*问硬件时会有权限问题,比如上面代码CreateFile()在IDE中执行失败,返回错误码5. 规避的方法就是直接在资源管理器中运行exe程序,并选择“以管理员身份运行”。
3.2 超过8GB的CHS表示形式
在MBR的每个分区记录(partition record, partition entry)中,CHS(Cylinder Header Sector)部分是3个字节,如此最大表示8G的磁盘空间(粗略计算:8x3=24, 每个扇区512字节, 512 * 2^24 = 8GB)。但现在的磁盘空间最少都是几百G,因此CHS无法表示出正确的取值。为此,MBR通常规定0xfeffff表示非法的CHS,或无效的CHS;但UEFI规范规定的是0xffffff表示无效值,但如同上面代码运行结果显示的,在示例代码运行的系统上,却是0xefffff表示无效取值。
在这种情况下,都取Partition Entry中的起始LBA(StartingLBA)、以及LBA个数(SizeInLBA)两个字段来计算每个分区的起始位置、以及该分区的实际大小。
相关的两个链接提及了chs的特殊取值:

3.3 把打印重定向到文件
在上面的示例代码中,main()一开始把标准输出重定向到一个文件中。可以参考Android源码bootable/recovery/recovery.cpp的main()函数:
int main(int argc, char **argv) { time_t start = time(NULL); // If these fail, there‘s not really anywhere to complain... freopen(TEMPORARY_LOG_FILE, "a", stdout); setbuf(stdout, NULL); freopen(TEMPORARY_LOG_FILE, "a", stderr); setbuf(stderr, NULL);

3.4 磁盘管理相关的知识、以及MSDN相关的API

3.5 编码风格
Windows上面编码的风格和Linux及其他语言有相当大的差异,比如Windows的函数名是驼峰式、首字母大写;但Linux、以及STL等的命名均是小写字母、单词之间是下划线等风格。
为此,以上的示例代码主要侧重于Linux的编码习惯,如此会和Windows SDK API的风格存在差异。以此说明。
