  • PartialVolume (15 Feb 24)

    Merge pull request #546 from PartialVolume/Determine_block_sizes_before_hidden_sector_detection Populates device block size before hidden sector

  • PartialVolume (15 Feb 24)

    Populates device block size before hidden sector Now populates the block size (physical) before the hidden sector determination function runs. The naming of block/sector can be very confusing in nwipe. So I have created a device_phy_sector_size in the drive context, so we have ->device_sector_size // logical sector size ->device_phys_sector_size // physical sector size ->device_block_size // Usually the same as logical size but could be increased by nwipe to encompass multiple logical sectors, i.e a block of sectors

  • PartialVolume (15 Feb 24)

    Update version.c Bump minor version from 0.35.6 to 0.35.7

  • PartialVolume (03 Feb 24)

    Merge pull request #543 from PartialVolume/Fix_incorrect_HS_status_for_4096_sectors_as_reported_by_libata Fix hidden sector detection for logical 4096 size
