@Itxaka what would you think about leaving only
Partition.Label
field and simply looking upID_PART_ENTRY_NAME
first and then usingID_FS_LABEL
if and only ifID_PART_ENTRY_NAME
is empty?There was a problem hiding this comment.

@jaypipes I don't really have strong feelings here, but I do have a feeble feeling ( :) ) that conflating these two different labels in the same field feels a bit funky. OTOH avoiding to expand the API surface also makes sense.

I would not do that as they are different values and can be set by different things, so it doesnt make sense to mix them together, that can lead to mistakes happening. i.e. If I format a partition with a label X and then search for the partition label I would get X which is not necessarily the label of the partition.
Agreed, they are different things and should be separated. They can be different and should be reported as different IMHO, as one is a partition label and the other a FS label.
Note that if your FS is formatted, the label will be erased but not the partition label, so its very helpful to have both.
I understand not wanting to expand the API surface, but this is a valuable information to add, especially with it already reporting the partition type, its a nice thing to also have the FS label and partition as you can identify partitions by any of those values.

@Itxaka yes, I'm now pretty much convinced we should have two separate fields for these labels.
