kernel: backport mtd support for subpartitions in DT
[openwrt/staging/chunkeey.git] / target / linux / generic / pending-4.9 / 161-mtd-part-add-generic-parsing-of-linux-part-probe.patch
1 From: Hauke Mehrtens <hauke@hauke-m.de>
2 Subject: mtd: part: add generic parsing of linux,part-probe
3
4 This moves the linux,part-probe device tree parsing code from
5 physmap_of.c to mtdpart.c. Now all drivers can use this feature by just
6 providing a reference to their device tree node in struct
7 mtd_part_parser_data.

22 +- linux,part-probe: list of name as strings of the partition parser
23 + which should be used to parse the partition table.
24 + They will be tried in the specified ordering and
25 + the next one will be used if the previous one
26 + failed.
27 +
28 + Example: linux,part-probe = "cmdlinepart", "ofpart";
29 +
30 + This is also the default value, which will be used
31 + if this attribute is not specified. It could be
32 + that the flash driver in use overwrote the default
33 + value and uses some other default.
34 +
35 + Possible values are: bcm47xxpart, afs, ar7part,
36 + ofoldpart, ofpart, bcm63xxpart, RedBoot, cmdlinepart
37 +
38 The ECC strength and ECC step size properties define the correction capability
39 of a controller. Together, they say a controller can correct "{strength} bit
40 errors per {size} bytes".
