Fix and add documentation/tests for selection by string for known
partition type GUID introduced by bcb41dcaefac ("uuid: add
selection by string for known partition type GUID"):
- split list_guid for short name (used also for partiton
description with type parameter) and full name to display
information
- as the function are uuid_str_to_bin() / uuid_guid_get_str()
are no more under CONFIG_PARTITION_TYPE_GUID, since commit
31ce367cd100 ("lib/uuid.c: change prototype of uuid_guid_get_str()")
and commit c1528f324c60 ("lib: compile uuid_guid_get_str if
CONFIG_LIB_UUID=y") move the content of array under EFI_PARTITION
and linker will remove it is not used it (in SPL)
- Add and fix documentation for gpt command
- Add test test_gpt_write_part_type to test "type=" parameters
This first patch solves an issue for the "system" shortcut for ESP,
removed by commit d54e1004b8b1 ("lib/uuid.c: use unique name
for PARTITION_SYSTEM_GUID") but used in 2 location (at least):
1- board/samsung/e850-96/e850-96.env:10:
partitions=name=esp,start=512K,size=128M,bootable,type=system;
partitions+=name=rootfs,size=-,bootable,type=linux
2- arch/arm/mach-stm32mp/cmd_stm32prog/stm32prog.c:1151
case PART_ESP:
/* EFI System Partition */
type_str = "system"
....
offset += snprintf(buf + offset,
buflen - offset,
",type=%s", type_str);
Changes in v2:
- change 'string' to 'type' in struct for list_guid[]
- clarify the usage of struct field 'type' and 'description' in
comment and in commit message
- use 'type' for EFI_XXX description as these string have
no space and size is lower than 36 characters.
