Some flash device partitions can be containers with extra subpartitions
|
||||
(volumes). All callbacks are already capable of this additional level of
|
||||
indirection.
|
||||
|
||||
This patch makes sure we always display subpartitions using a tree
|
||||
structure and takes care of deleting subpartitions when parent gets
|
||||
removed.

Subject: [PATCH] mtd: partitions: add support for partition parsers
|
||||
MIME-Version: 1.0
|
||||
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
|
||||
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
|
||||
|
||||
Some devices have partitions that are kind of containers with extra
|
||||
subpartitions / volumes instead of e.g. a simple filesystem data. To
|
||||
support such cases we need to first create normal flash device
|
||||
partitions and then take care of these special ones.
|
||||
|
||||
It's very common case for home routers. Depending on the vendor there
|
||||
are formats like TRX, Seama, TP-Link, WRGG & more. All of them are used
|
||||
to embed few partitions into a single one / single firmware file.
|
||||
|
||||
Ideally all vendors would use some well documented / standardized format
|
||||
like UBI (and some probably start doing so), but there are still
|
||||
countless devices on the market using these poor vendor specific
|
||||
formats.
|
||||
|
||||
This patch extends MTD subsystem by allowing to specify list of parsers
|
||||
that should be tried for a given partition. Supporting such poor formats
|
||||
is highly unlikely to be the top priority so these changes try to
|
||||
minimize maintenance cost to the minimum. It reuses existing code for
|
||||
these new parsers and just adds a one property and one new function.
|
||||
|
||||
This implementation requires setting partition parsers in a flash
|
||||
parser. A proper change of bcm47xxpart will follow and in the future we
|
||||
will hopefully also find a solution for doing it with ofpart
|
||||
("fixed-partitions").
