As mtd_peb_write checks for alignment, it fails writing to dataflash: barebox$ state -s ERROR: state: Failed to write PEB 0, -22 ERROR: state: Failed to write circular to 0 length 48, -22 WARNING: state: Failed to write state backend bucket, -22 ERROR: state: Failed to write PEB 1, -22 ERROR: state: Failed to write circular to 0 length 48, -22 WARNING: state: Failed to write state backend bucket, -22 ERROR: state: Failed to write PEB 2, -22 ERROR: state: Failed to write circular to 0 length 48, -22 WARNING: state: Failed to write state backend bucket, -22 ERROR: state: Failed to write state to at least 1 buckets. Successfully written to 0 buckets ERROR: state: Failed to write packed state, -5 state: I/O error Patch bellow is a naive fix just to show where problem is. There's also problem erasing dataflash: barebox$ erase /dev/dataflash0.barebox-state erase: Invalid argument I guess we'll run into similar issue for MTD_RAM, so question is whenever we want such a strict check here at all. Opinions?
