Description Oliver Herold 2008-02-23 11:50:02 UTC
This is a persistent problem since FreeBSD 6.x. DVD RAM formatted media
with FAT or UFS as filesystems aren't a problem at all, but UDF (diverent
versions) isn't readable in FreeBSD.

mount_udf /dev/acd0 /cdrom results in mount_udf: /dev/acd0: Invalid argument

I tried it with different version of UDF and different operating systems
(Debian Etch/Windows XP and Mac OS X Leopard) but to no avail in FreeBSD.

Maybe the udfdump output of such a media is of some use:

Fix: 

Not a real fix but an option:

I can mount UDF formatted DVD RAM media with sysutils/udfclient (option
fusefs):

udfclientfs /dev/cd0 /cdrom

and read/copy the content.
How-To-Repeat: mount_udf /dev/acd0 /cdrom results in mount_udf: /dev/acd0: Invalid argument

From-To: freebsd-i386->freebsd-bugs

This does not sound i386-specific. 

I wonder if it is related to kern/120967?
Comment 2 Andriy Gapon 2008-02-23 22:24:21 UTC
CC: Mark Linimon: no, it's not related.

As a maintainer of sysutils/udfclient port and a guy who spent a lot of
time on in-kernel UDF FS, I can tell that this problem is caused by
FreeBSD fs/udf supporting only older UDF standards. Newer UDF features
(>=2.00), like extended file entries, are not supported.

So, I am not sure how to qualify this PR: a bug, a feature request, or ...
One thing is for sure: FreeBSD UDF fs doesn't get attention that it
actually needs.

Comment 4 Andriy Gapon 2008-04-15 20:08:53 UTC
Oliver,

if you still have that disk around and have an opportunity to check it
with FreeBSD, could you please try the patch attached?
The patch is against RELENG_7 but it should apply cleanly to not so
distant releases/branches.
This patch contains larger fixes for various UDF problems and in
addition it also contains very basic support for UDF 2.X. Technically
speaking it adds support for Extended File Entry, but not anything else.

Just in case, to apply the patch you need the following:
1. FreeBSD sources :-)
2. cd /usr/src
3. patch -p1 < /path/to/the/patch
4. cd sys/modules/udf
5. make obj && make depend && make && make install
6. kldload udf

The above assumes that you use udf as module. If you have it built into
kernel you then instead of 5 and 6 you would need to build the kernel
and reboot.

Comment 5 alexbestms 2010-07-19 03:07:19 UTC
freebsd is still missing udf 2.x support. if wikipedia is correct the
latest revision is udf 2.60 from 2005.

reinoud zandijk has taken scotts udf 1.x work and extended it to
support udf 2.60. [1] the code is in the netbsd (and also openbsd)
tree. maybe somebody is willing to backport it to freebsd.

cheers.

Comment 7 mrT 2017-10-19 15:39:27 UTC
In the header of this bug report the tag: Importance
currently reads: Normal Affects Only Me
This is incorrect. 
This issue affects others. I am presently using PCBSD10.3 and this exact
issue is still present. I have also noted from google that it has affected several others. Anyone who wants to mount a modern UDF CD/DVD ROM will not be able to on FreeBSD (at least with version 10.3).

I suspect correcting this tag could have an impact on getting some attention to this problem.
Comment 8 SF 2018-05-15 23:43:58 UTC
mount_udf is clearly a problem, i cant mount or read any kind of new dvd. something like this seems to me important because it heavily impacts your workflow if things like this dont work. we now have bhyve and this requires using newer kinds of media, making iso-images and other stuff.
Comment 9 Frank Sapone 2018-10-11 00:47:45 UTC
This is still a problem.  I've been debating for years to switch to FreeBSD as I really enjoy the BSD license over GPL.  With XFCE4 FreeBSD works fairly well.  However, I installed virtualbox so I could install Windows 7 in a VM for things that I will not be able to use natively.  I am unable to mount my Windows 7 DVD because of this.
Comment 10 Scott Long freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2018-10-11 01:57:45 UTC
Hi.  mount_udf and the udf kernel code was originally my baby, but I did some very naive things in it that worked for mainstream DVD-ROM media but were not fully compliant with the spec.  I can work on this for a few evenings, but I don't have a way to easily create a DVD-RAM test case.  Would it work to do a 'dd' image of your test disk and make it available to me to download?  That might help to accelerate my efforts on this.
Comment 11 Frank Sapone 2018-10-11 02:02:10 UTC
Hi Scott,

Glad to see a response.  Was not expecting one!

The DVD is simply the Windows 7 install DVD, but you could achieve the same result with the freely downloadable Windows 10 DVD and burning it.  The Windows 10 ISO is unfortunately downloaded by a tool so I don't know how well it work on FreeBSD with Wine: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows10.

If it helps, I could make a stripped down Windows 7 ISO that removes the large WIM files and upload that somewhere or email you a link.

Thanks,
Frank
Comment 12 SF 2018-10-11 07:05:23 UTC
Is dd equal to illegal disk copy tools? You need to copy your disk exactly equal the way it is if you want to do any testing. This means i have to make an illegal copy for you, can we do this? Rights could be an problem, i could help you otherwise by testing it myself on my own machine. There is many things i can test, i will give you some information what protocol is required on those disks. You can work on this.
Comment 13 scineram 2020-03-06 17:19:45 UTC
Hi!

This would be nice to have. Wanted to create fat32 Windows 10 installer USB, but couldn't mount downloaded udf iso with these symptoms.
