Function find_partitions_by_type

pub fn find_partitions_by_type(
    mbr: &Mbr,
    partition_type: PartitionKind,
) -> Vec<(usize, &PartitionEntry)>

Find partitions of a specific type within an MBR.

This function searches through all partitions in an MBR and returns references to those that match the specified partition type. This is useful for locating specific types of partitions (e.g., FAT32, Linux, etc.) without creating partition devices.

Arguments

• Mbr - The MBR structure to search through
• Partition_type - The specific partition type to find

Returns

A vector of tuples containing the partition index and reference to the partition entry for each matching partition.

Examples

extern crate alloc;
use file_system::*;

let device = create_device!(Memory_device_type::<512>::new(4 * 1024 * 1024));
// Create an MBR with FAT32 partition
let mut mbr = MBR_type::New_with_signature(0x12345678);
mbr.Add_partition(Partition_type_type::Fat32_lba, 2048, 1024, true).unwrap();
mbr.Write_to_device(&device).unwrap();

// Read it back and find FAT32 partitions
let mbr = MBR_type::Read_from_device(&device).unwrap();
let fat32_partitions = mbr.Find_partitions_by_type(Partition_type_type::Fat32_lba);
println!("Found {} FAT32 partitions", fat32_partitions.len());
