rewrite build system to avoid recursion

2011-06-27T06:07:07+00:00

The ubi-utils/src/ subdir is tossed as it just complicates things for no real gain. The dictionary.h header is relocated to the ubi-utils/include/ since other headers in there need it. The top level clean is replaced with a `find -delete` on objects, so it might prune more than necessary, but many projects now do this sort of thing and no one complained there. A "mkdep" helper generates the actual rule, and the variables are used with "foreach" to expand these automatically. The tests subdir is updated only to reflect the ubi-utils source move. Otherwise, it is left untouched as making that non-recursive isn't really worth the effort. While we're gutting things, also through in kbuild style output while building to make things more legible.

ubi-utils: send help/version info to stdout

2011-06-08T11:20:28+00:00

Usage/version information should go to stdout when it is expected behavior (i.e. the user requested it explicitly). This info should go to stderr only when the usage info is being shown as a result of incorrect options. Signed-off-by: Mike Frysinger Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy

mtd-utils: switch ubi and ubifs tools to use common strtoX funcs

2011-04-09T14:49:22+00:00

Instead of using strtol and Co directly, use our share simple_strtoX() helpers. This is just a cleanup. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy

ubi-utils: tweak const strings decls

2010-09-27T06:33:43+00:00

Shrink the data size a little by declaring addresses of constant strings instead of pointers to it. Also slip in static & const on long_options missing them. Signed-off-by: Mike Frysinger Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy

mtd-utils: standardize PROGRAM_NAME

2010-09-27T06:31:10+00:00

Make sure all the utils define PROGRAM_NAME and do so at the start of the file so that sub-headers may assume it exists. Signed-off-by: Mike Frysinger 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

libmtd: support MEMERASE64

2010-07-26T05:37:00+00:00

This patch is base on Kevin Cernekee's patch posted to the MTD mailing list. It adds MEMERASE64 support to the 'mtd_erase()' call. Now it first tries to use MEMERASE64, and if that is not supported, falls back to the old MEMERASE ioctl. This patch also introduces an 'offs64_ioctl' flag to the libmtd descriptor. However, we cannot initialize it in 'libmtd_open()', because we need an MTD device node, which we do not have in 'libmtd_open()'. Thus, we firs mark this flag as "uninitialized", and at the first invocation of 'mtd_erase()' we initialize it. This also means that we have to pass the limbtd descriptor to 'mtd_erase()', to save the flag value. This, in turn, requires tweaking 'mtd_erase()' users. This is not very nice, but good enough so far. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy

libs: remove ubiutils-specific stuff from common.h

2010-07-17T07:04:56+00:00

Now include/common.h contains things that really everyone can use. And all the stuff specific to ubi-utils is in ubi-utils/include/ubiutils-common.h Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy

mtd-utils: move libmtd source files to lib/ subdirectory

2010-07-13T10:33:20+00:00

Source files for libmtd, crc32, and fec are scattered throughout the tree. Move them to a central location so they can be built into a common "libmtd.a" library used by all mtd-utils programs. This patch only renames/deletes files and does not change the content. Also modify the build system and source code so that libmtd.a can be built from a "common" location (lib/). Statically link all utilities at the top level with libmtd.a . Minor changes to mkfs.ubifs to allow using the common crc32 implementation.

ubi-utils: harmonize libmtd interface a bit

2010-06-15T09:55:34+00:00

Let's consistently use 'mtd_num' name for MTD device number. At the moment some code uses 'mtd_num', other 'dev_num'. Harmonize that. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy
