This patchserie add the popssibility to define mtd partitions on spi nor flash, and use this settings with the sf commands.
steps: - add MTD layer driver for spi, original patch from: http://git.denx.de/?p=u-boot/u-boot-mips.git;a=commitdiff;h=bb246819cdc90493dd7089eaa51b9e639765cced and addapted it to current mainline. - move common functions to get offset and size from cmdline nand command to extract offset and size from a mtd partition to common place "drivers/mtd/mtd_uboot.c" maybe another place is better? - add to the sf command the possibility to use offset and size from the settings in mtdparts With this patchset, the sf command looks now: => sf sf - SPI flash sub-system Usage: sf probe [[bus:]cs] [hz] [mode] - init flash device on given SPI bus and chip select sf read addr offset|partition len - read `len' bytes starting at `offset' to memory at `addr' sf write addr offset|partition len - write `len' bytes from memory at `addr' to flash at `offset' sf erase offset|partition [+]len - erase `len' bytes from `offset' `+len' round up `len' to block size sf update addr offset|partition len - erase and write `len' bytes from memory at `addr' to flash at `offset' => for example "env" is defined in mtdparts: => sf read 13000000 env device 0 offset 0xd0000, size 0x10000 SF: 65536 bytes @ 0xd0000 Read: OK => There are the followings checkpatch warnings: CHECK: Alignment should match open parenthesis + if (arg_off(argv[2], &idx, &addr, &maxsize, &maxsize, + MTD_DEV_TYPE_NAND, nand_info[idx].size)) { CHECK: Alignment should match open parenthesis + if (arg_off(argv[3], &dev, &off, &size, &maxsize, + MTD_DEV_TYPE_NAND, nand_info[dev].size)) CHECK: Alignment should match open parenthesis + if (arg_off_size(argc - 3, argv + 3, &dev, &off, &size, + &maxsize, MTD_DEV_TYPE_NAND, total: 0 errors, 0 warnings, 3 checks, 361 lines checked NOTE: Ignored message types: COMPLEX_MACRO CONSIDER_KSTRTO MINMAX MULTISTATEMENT_MACRO_USE_DO_WHILE NETWORKING_BLOCK_COMMENT_STYLE USLEEP_RANGE 20140714_ml_mtdparts/0002-mtd-nand-move-common-functions-from-cmd_nand.c-to-co.patch has style problems, please review. I see not, why this warning pops up ... resend rebased version of this series, as v3 is pending since September 2014... Changes in v6: - add comments from Jagan Teki: new patch in this patchserie, extract this piece of code into a new patch. Changes in v2: - add comment from Daniel Schwierzeck: fix compile error from original patch with "static inline" rather than "static __maybe_unused" Changes in v3: - rebase with d6c1ffc7d23f4fe4ae8c91101861055b8e1501b6 - add comments from scott wood: - align MTD_DEV_TYPE_NAND correct - remove unnecessary inline - rework "jffs2 header" problem later Changes in v4: - rebased against 385a08a60f042061b004642d6b9bb6cfb794ad5a Changes in v5: - add comment from Scott Wood: keep the continuation line aligned with the arguments Changes in v6: - add comments from Jagan Teki: move code, which checks if flash pointer is used into a new patch. - use #ifdef in Code - call mtd register before the spi_release_bus - add Reviewed-by: Jagannadha Sutradharudu Teki <jagannadh.t...@gmail.com> - fix Tom Rinis mail addr - add comment from Scott Wood: - fix indentation level - add mtd_ prefix - move str2off and str2long into common place, as they are no mtd specific functions and change return value from int to bool - add comment from Jagan Teki: - append help text - add Reviewed-by from Jagannadha Sutradharudu Teki Daniel Schwierzeck (1): mtd, spi: add MTD layer driver Heiko Schocher (3): mtd, nand: move common functions from cmd_nand.c to common place spi, sf: use offset and size in sf cmd from mtdpartition mtd, spi: check if flash pointer is used README | 3 + common/cmd_nand.c | 148 +++++++++--------------------------------- common/cmd_onenand.c | 19 ++---- common/cmd_sf.c | 61 +++++++++-------- common/cmd_test.c | 12 +--- drivers/mtd/Makefile | 4 +- drivers/mtd/mtd_uboot.c | 99 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ drivers/mtd/spi/Makefile | 1 + drivers/mtd/spi/sf_internal.h | 5 ++ drivers/mtd/spi/sf_mtd.c | 104 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ drivers/mtd/spi/sf_probe.c | 10 +-- include/linux/mtd/mtd.h | 5 ++ include/vsprintf.h | 2 + lib/vsprintf.c | 16 +++++ 14 files changed, 317 insertions(+), 172 deletions(-) create mode 100644 drivers/mtd/mtd_uboot.c create mode 100644 drivers/mtd/spi/sf_mtd.c -- 2.1.0 _______________________________________________ U-Boot mailing list U-Boot@lists.denx.de http://lists.denx.de/mailman/listinfo/u-boot
