nanddump: rename --nobad to --noskipbad

2010-09-18T17:15:34+00:00

"nobad" might lead to the assumption that bad blocks are skipped, but this option does exactly the opposite. Use a more descriptive name. Reported-by: Jon Povey Signed-off-by: Wolfram Sang Cc: Mike Frysinger Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy

nanddump: add --nobad to read bad blocks

2010-09-12T08:10:55+00:00

Sometimes dumping bad blocks is useful, like when the data isn't actually bad but the OOB layout isn't what the kernel is expecting or is otherwise screwed up. The --nobad option allows just that. Signed-off-by: Mike Frysinger Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy

nanddump: drop unused --ignoreerrors option

2010-09-12T08:07:39+00:00

Nowhere in the nanddump code is the "ignoreerrors" variable used. So drop the option completely. Signed-off-by: Mike Frysinger Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy

ubi-utils: drop -Werror in old utils

2010-09-12T08:07:15+00:00

Considering this is marked as "old" which is synonymous with "dead", having the dir cause build failures because of warnings makes no sense. So drop the -Werror usage. Signed-off-by: Mike Frysinger Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy

ubi-utils: reformat help text to fit in 80 columns

2010-09-02T10:24:26+00:00

Reformat the help text of ubiattach and ubidetach to display nicely on 80 column terminals, also fix a couple of bits that did not make sense. Signed-off-by: Jon Povey Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy

ubi-utils: provide default value for /dev/ubi_ctrl

2010-09-02T10:22:50+00:00

Modify ubiattach and ubidetach to default to /dev/ubi_ctrl if not supplied rather than requiring the user to type it in every time. Also bump version from 1.0 to 1.1 Signed-off-by: Jon Povey Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy

lib: fix libcrc32 generation

2010-09-01T11:35:19+00:00

libcrc32.a was generated without external symbols: nm -g libcrc32.a shoed nothing. This patch fixes it to make libcrc32.a build to be the same as libmtd.a. Frankly, I do not know why this happened and why this patch fixes the issue, sorry for my ignorance. But this works. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy

rename crc32 to mtd_crc32

2010-09-01T11:31:52+00:00

Because of namespace collisions mkfs.ubifs uses crc32() implementation from /lib/libz.so.1, which generates incompatible CRC and later on the kernel reports many CRC errors. Fix this by re-naming mtd-utils' crc32 function to mtd_crc32. Reported-by: Jon Povey Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy

flash_eraseall: tweaks to make binary size smaller

nanddump: Fix hexdump nybble ordering

2010-08-30T10:38:59+00:00
