According to blockdev's manual:
--report
Print a report for the specified device. It is possible to give
multiple devices. If none is given, all devices which appear in
/proc/partitions are shown. Note that the partition StartSec is
in 512-byte sectors.
However, I'm running Ubuntu installed with wubi, so my root dev is on a loopback device. Here's my /proc/partitions:
major minor #blocks name
7 0 30457856 loop0
7 1 31457280 loop1
8 0 732574584 sda
8 1 26214400 sda1
8 2 307263488 sda2
8 3 1 sda3
8 5 399092736 sda5
So according to the manual, all these devices should be printed with blockdev --report. But they are not, the loop devices are excluded:
$ sudo blockdev --report
[sudo] password for user:
RO RA SSZ BSZ StartSec Size Device
rw 256 512 4096 0 750156374016 /dev/sda
rw 256 512 4096 2048 26843545600 /dev/sda1
rw 256 512 4096 52430848 314637811712 /dev/sda2

SRU Justification:
[Impact]
blockdev won't work correctly with loopback devices.
[Test Case]
1) Create and mount a loop back device on /dev/loop0
2) Run:
$ sudo blockdev --report /dev/loop0
This should work without an ioctl error.
[Regression Potential]
This patch is backported from an upstream release commit 569d1dac.
Its already in utopic, and the patch modifies the program to no longer use an invalid ioctl call.
