I didn't check the internals of treating domain logfiles, so maybe the answer to the following will be strict no. I'm wondering is it possible not to have any restrictions on the domain logfile? In my mind domain logfile is simply a file which defines domains which should be rescued *separately*. In this sense randomly positioned or even overlapping ranges are possible, since ddrescue would simply walk through the domains and would try to copy yet uncopied parts. If some parts are present is multiple domains, no problem. If these parts are already copied, nothing to do. If they are not copied, let's try. Treating domain logfile like this would make it unnecessary to create a valid logfile from a file like mine defining separate domains.Florian Sedivy wrote:Or the syntax check could have a "loose mode" used only for rescue-domain log files (and maybe also in fill mode?). It would be enough to only check the lines that will actually be used, and those by the rule, that they "must be strictly ascending and non-overlapping".This is an interesting idea. I'll see how to implement it.
