2017-11-02Add no-return attribute to usage() style functionsDavid Oberhollenzer
A common pattern in command line processing is having a usage() function that prints out how to use the command line options and then terminates. The function is typically used inside a switch block for command line options like `-h' or unknown options. In a lot of places, the break keyword is omitted, because the function exits anyway. However, this triggers gcc warnings about implicit fall-through. Rather than adding a phony "/* fall-through */" this patch flags the usage() style function with a gcc attribute, indicating that they do not return and removes further superfluous break statements.

2017-06-28Eliminate warnings about missing prototypesDavid Oberhollenzer
This patch eliminates warnings generated by the -Wmissing-prototypes option. With this flag set, we are now forced to have prototypes for all global, exported functions, that have to be made visible to the definitions and we are forced to mark all local functions as static.

2016-08-25mtd-utils: mtd_debug: check amount of data read.Michal Suchanek
The kernel refuses to read more data from a MTD device than the device size. However, mtd_debug does not check the amount of data read as returned by read(2) and assumes the requested amount is always read when there is no error. Reading 8M data from a 4M flash chip results in 8M file containing the flash data at the start. Signed-off-by: Michal Suchanek <hramrach@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Richard Weinberger <richard@nod.at>
2015-11-11mtd-utils: Restructure the mtd-utils source.Dongsheng Yang
* There is no code modification in this commit, only moving * the files to proper place. The user tools looks a little messy as we place almost the all tools in the root directory of mtd-utils. To make it more clear, I propose to introduce the following structure for our source code. mtd-utils/ |-- lib |-- include |-- misc-utils |-- jffsX-utils |-- nand-utils |-- nor-utils |-- ubi-utils |-- ubifs-utils `-- tests Signed-off-by: Dongsheng Yang <yangds.fnst@cn.fujitsu.com> Signed-off-by: Brian Norris <computersforpeace@gmail.com>
