Subject: [PATCH] udiskslinuxblock: Only permit ATA Secure Erase during
5a151b
 Format() on a whole block device
5a151b
5a151b
ATA Secure Erase requested as an option to the Format() method call used
5a151b
to perform the actual erase on a whole drive object it looked up. When
5a151b
Format() was called on a partition, this led to data loss on a whole drive.
5a151b
This commit adds a safeguard to check that the Format() is requested
5a151b
on a whole block device.
5a151b
5a151b
Severity of this issue was slightly lowered by a failure to submit
5a151b
the ATA Secure erase command in case some filesystem was mounted
5a151b
at that point.
