Eric Auer 26f116a217 More secure FAT handling: Avoids risk of cross links for example if you reboot while files are open... Reported by Hardi Stengelin :-). Always test link_fat result. New function is_free_cluster. Extra checks in link_fat (bad r/w offset, i/o, write) and next_cluster (dangling chain: bad value in chain) with short messages (no msg for bad chain start). Shorter "Bad DPB" (FAT size) msg. More comments! Update FS INFO on disk only when needed. Check if chain EOF was at expected place when extending. Call link_fat before! setdstart when a FAT chain grows. [Q: Does 0 byte write always trunc? Why?] git-svn-id: https://svn.code.sf.net/p/freedos/svn/kernel/trunk@1358 6ac86273-5f31-0410-b378-82cca8765d1b		2008-03-08 20:31:37 +00:00
