[PATCH V5 0/4] mtd: add support for subpartitions

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 




From: Rafał Miłecki <rafal@xxxxxxxxxx>

This patchset adds support for subpartitions. This feature means support
for partitions that are containers with extra subpartitions / volumes.

Initially I wanted to keep my changes minimalistic but Brian pointed
that casting const to non-const is hacky and I should work with
add_mtd_partitions / allocate_partition instead.

Apart from trivial rename I needed to add 1 condition to the
allocate_partition and modify 3 lines of code. I hope this is
acceptable.

Please let me know if you can still see any problems with this.

Rafał Miłecki (4):
  mtd: partitions: rename allocate_partition master argument to the
    parent
  mtd: partitions: add support for allocating subpartition
  mtd: partitions: add support for partition parsers
  mtd: extract TRX parser out of bcm47xxpart into a separated module
