Hi,

My usecase is enabling boot slot switching on Android A/B devices, where the
active LUN has to be changed in order to facilitate e.g. dual-booting Android
and mainline Linux. A similar interface is exposed by Android, albeit via ioctl. I've
tested this patch and confirmed it enabled the necessary functionality.

Hi,
Expands sysfs boot_lun attribute to be writable. Necessary to enable
proper support for LUN switching on some UFS devices.
Can you please elaborate why is it necessary?
What use case are you running?
NAK with prejudice.
Hi Avri,

Could you explain why the NAK here? Boot LUN switching is used on a lot of embedded devices to implement A/B updates, Android devices are just one such example.

Distributions like postmarketOS [1] aim to support upstream Linux on mobile devices, particularly those that are no longer supported by the vendor. Being able to make use of features like A/B updates is something that I expect more distributions to be considering in the future, as we start to see more Linux devices with support for features like this.

If safety is a concern, or if the values are device specific, we can look at protecting the write functionality and configuration behind DT properties, or coming up with another alternative.

Kind regards,
Caleb (they/he)


Thanks,
Avri

You need to verify that no one set bBootLunEn = 0x0 because the device won't
boot.
Better check explicitly that slot != bBootLunEn and its either 1 or 2.
