[PATCH v2 0/8] Introduce NVIDIA Tegra Partition Tablex

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

 



Some NVIDIA Tegra devices have GPT entry at a wrong location and others may
even not have it at all. So either a custom workaround for GPT parsing or
TegraPT support is needed for those devices if we want to support them in
upstream kernel. The former solution was already rejected [1], let's try
the latter.

Big thanks to everyone who helped with figuring out the TegraPT format!

Changelog:

v2: - Addressed v1 review comments from Stephen Warren by using BIT for
      locating BCT position in IRAM.

    - Added more validations to the TegraPT parser: partition type is
      verified, eMMC instance ID is verified.

    - TegraPT parser now doesn't touch any devices other than eMMC.

    - EKS (encrypted keys) partition is blacklisted now.

    - Implemented eMMC boot partitions scanning. These new patches are
      added in a result:

        mmc: block: Add mmc_bdev_to_part_type() helper
        mmc: block: Add mmc_bdev_to_area_type() helper
        mmc: block: Add MMC_QUIRK_RESCAN_MAIN_BLKDEV
        mmc: block: Enable partition-table scanning for boot partitions
        partitions/tegra: Implement eMMC boot partitions scanning

  mmc: core: Add raw_boot_mult field to mmc_ext_csd
  mmc: block: Add mmc_bdev_to_card() helper
  partitions: Introduce NVIDIA Tegra Partition Table
