[edk2-devel] [PATCH] Ext4Pkg: Fix CRC16 checksumming on block groups

[edk2-devel] [PATCH] Ext4Pkg: Fix CRC16 checksumming on block groups

[Pedro Falcato]

Old filesystems (around 2008 and older) do not use CRC32c
but rather CRC16-ANSI. Previously, the CalculateCrc16Ansi function was
broken and gave us wrong checksums. Adapt to the new interface.

And while we're at it, fix the checksum algorithm itself - the crc16
algorithm just skips over the bg_checksum, and does not checksum it.

This problem was found out-of-list when older ext4 filesystems
(that use crc16 checksums) failed to mount with "corruption".
