vvfat creates a virtual VFAT filesystem with a certain logical
geometry that depends on its options. It sets the "geometry hint" to
this geometry. It is the only block driver to do this.
The geometry hint is about about *physical* geometry, and used only by
certain hard disk device models.
vvfat's hint is normally invisible for device models, because
bdrv_open() puts a raw format on top of vvfat's fat protocol. That
raw format is where drive_init() puts the user's geometry (if any),
and where the device model gets it from.
Nobody complained, because the default physical geometry is the same
as vvfat's logical geometry:
opts LCHS def. PCHS
1024,16,63 same
:32: 1024,16,63 same
:16: 1024,16,63 same
:12: 64,16,63 same
Except when you specify :floppy:
opts LCHS def. PCHS
:floppy: 80, 2,36 5,16,63
:32:floppy: 80, 2,36 5,16,63
:16:floppy: 80, 2,36 5,16,63
:12:floppy: 80, 2,18 2,16,63
Silly thing to do for use with a hard disk.
However, the "raw" format can be suppressed by adding an
redundant-looking "format=vvfat" to "file=fat:FOO". Then, vvfat's
hint clobbers the user's geometry, i.e. -drive options cyls, heads,
secs get silently ignored. Don't do that.
No change without format=vvfat. With it, the user's hard disk
geometry (-drive options cyls, heads, secs) is now obeyed, and the
default hard disk geometry with :floppy: now matches the one without
format=vvfat.
