I've made some changes to the fastboot handlers to meet my needs. If there is interest, I can prepare patches and submit them upstream. The changes are:
BUGFIX: Currently the 'fastboot format [partition]' command (run from PC) formats the partition smaller than expected. Change getvar_partition_size() to return partition size in # of bytes instead of the current behavior of # of blocks. The 'fastboot format [partition]' command expect u-boot to return the size in number of bytes in order to format the partition correctly. Make the a fastboot oem command handler with a dynamic lookup like the base fastboot command handler currently is. This would allow easily adding new oem commands in the baseline software (such as below). It would also allow for board files to extend the oem handler to handle OEM specific cases. I would use a weakly defined default oem command handler (empty function) which a board file can optionally override to handle board specific commands. Currently the 'fastboot oem format' command (gpt write mmc # $partitions) is supported. I'd like to add a 'fastboot oem verify' (gpt verify mmc # $partitions) to help the flashing PC detect when a board needs to be re-formatted. -Doug -- This email and any attachments are for the exclusive use of the intended recipient(s) and may contain confidential and/or privileged information.
