    Question on existence of device driver routine...

    I am attempting to accomplish the following goal: Generate list of all block devices so that I may be able to traverse them for specific drive labels.

    Is there a clean routine, or proposed method of being able to (within my device driver), generate a list of all block devices? I do not want any user interaction outside of the insertion of the module.

    Thanks in advance.

    I can be found either 40 miles west of Chicago, or in a galaxy far, far away.
