Navigating to metadata zone in detail block gets moved back to non-metadata #37

Closed dankamongmen closed 4 years ago

dankamongmen commented 4 years ago

If I have a blcok device with metadata followed by partitioned space (like any GPT device), and I navigate to the metadata area, within a second I'm moved back to the next non-metadata zone. Not sure when this started.

It looks like b->zone is getting unset in update_blockobj(). This presumably started when we added diskstats, casuing devices to be updated regularly.

I've got it working on the right side now for GPT devices, but not on the left side. It all has to do with zoneno == 0 being interpreted differently, probably for initial placement of selectors?

Fixed in the dankamongmen/ui-fixes-1.1.1 branch.
