mtd-utils: Add new syntax to get devices by name

2023-05-30T09:12:12+00:00

This introduces a new feature to the MTD command line utilities that allows MTD devices to be referenced by name instead of device node. For example this looks like: > # Display info for the MTD device with name "data" > mtdinfo mtd:data > # Copy file to MTD device with name "data" > flashcp /my/file mtd:data This follows the syntax supported by the kernel which allows MTD device's to be mounted by name[1]. Add the function mtd_find_dev_node() that accepts an MTD "identifier" and returns the MTD's device node. The function accepts a string starting with "mtd:" which it treats as the MTD's name. It then attempts to search for the MTD, and if found maps it back to the /dev/mtdX device node. If the string does not start with "mtd:", then assume it's the old style and refers directly to a MTD device node. The function is then hooked into existing tools like flashcp, mtdinfo, flash_unlock, etc. To load in the new MTD parsing code in a consistent way across programs.

mtd-utils: Add flash_otp_erase

On some SPI NOR flashes you can actually erase the OTP region until its fully locked. Add a small utility for that. Signed-off-by: Michael Walle Signed-off-by: David Oberhollenzer

Cleanup: Automake: remove single use variables

2021-01-20T10:53:58+00:00

Throughout the Automake files, there is a consistent pattern somewhat like this: FOO_BINS = .... sbin_PROGRAMS += $(FOO_BINS) This commit all such patterns whenever the variable is not used anywhere else and appends to the target directly. Signed-off-by: David Oberhollenzer

Remove headers from EXTRA_DIST

2021-01-20T10:53:51+00:00

This commit removes the C header files from the EXTRA_DIST variables and instead assigns them to the SOURCE variable of the respective components they belong to. This takes care of having them distributed in the release tar ball and helps with dependency tracking a little. Signed-off-by: David Oberhollenzer

misc-utils: Add fectest to build system

Add lsmtd program

2018-06-18T10:22:26+00:00

This patch adds a program called "lsmtd". The program produces a pretty printed list of the hierarchy of UBI and MTD devices on a system. It tries to imitate the lsblk program from util-linux as closely as possible. A number of command line switches are available to fine tune what information should be exposed and in what output format. The goal is to have a simple way of displaying the complete MTD stack on a system in a human readable form instead of piecing details together from proc files and various UBI utilities.

Change build system to autotools

2016-11-17T10:36:55+00:00

This patch is largely based on Richards original RFC. The major differences to the RFC patch are: - Add missing sumtools & mtdpart targets - Fix name of mkfs.jffs2 target - Add missing subdir-objects option for non-recursive make - Move all automake options to configure.ac - Add manpages to install target - Make XATTR & LZO support configurable - Install binaries to sbin directory like in the old build system - Install flash_erase wrapper script - Add files missing from distribution target Signed-off-by: David Oberhollenzer Signed-off-by: Richard Weinberger
