blkid_devno_to_devname ()

char *
blkid_devno_to_devname (dev_t devno);

This function finds the pathname to a block device with a given device number.

blkid_devno_to_wholedisk ()

int
blkid_devno_to_wholedisk (dev_t dev,
                          char *diskname,
                          size_t len,
                          dev_t *diskdevno);

This function uses sysfs to convert the devno device number to the *name* of the whole disk. The function DOES NOT return full device name. The dev argument could be partition or whole disk -- both is converted.

For example: sda1, 0x0801 --> sda, 0x0800

For conversion to the full disk *path* use blkid_devno_to_devname(), for example:

1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
9
10
11

dev_t dev = 0x0801, disk;		// sda1 = 8:1
char *diskpath, diskname[32];

blkid_devno_to_wholedisk(dev, diskname, sizeof(diskname), &disk);
diskpath = blkid_devno_to_devname(disk);

// print "0x0801: sda, /dev/sda, 8:0
printf("0x%x: %s, %s, %d:%d\n",
	dev, diskname, diskpath, major(disk), minor(disk));

free(diskpath);
