[PATCH 0/6] mtd: improve block2mtd + airoha parser

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

 



This small series handle 2 problems.

It does try to ""standardize"" the usage of block2mtd module with
MTD OF nodes.

It is very easy to add support for MTD parser by just adding an
OF node to the mtd created for block2mtd.

This apply only if the root block is used for block2mtd to allow
scenario where the full eMMC or an NVME is used for MTD and it doesn't
have any partition table.

To also support NVME, similar to how it's done with eMMC, we introduce
a subnode to the NVME controller that needs to have the "nvme-card"
compatible where a dev can define fixed-paritions for MTD parser usage.

This series also add support for the Airoha partition table where
the last partition is always ART and is placed at the end of the flash.

This require dynamic calculation of the offset as some dedicated
driver for bad block management might be used that reserve some space
at the end of the flash for block accounting.

New aarch64 Airoha SoC make use of this partition table and use block2mtd
for eMMC to treat them as MTD with custom bad block management and block
tracking.

  dt-bindings: nvme: Document nvme-card compatible
  nvme: assign of_node to nvme device
  dt-bindings: mmc: add property for partitions node in mmc-card node
  block2mtd: attach device OF node to MTD device
  dt-bindings: mtd: Add Documentation for Airoha fixed-partitions
  mtd: parser: add support for Airoha parser
