2021-10-13mtd-tests: Read and write pages during speed testsMiquel Raynal
The speed test does reads and writes of different sizes: - eraseblock - page - two pages At least this is the theory because, as opposed to the legacy kernel module doing the same measurement, the userspace tool uses the subpage size (hence accessing the same page 4, 8 or 16 times depending on the subpage setting). Of course if the controller does not support subpages, this issue is not visible. Use mtd.min_io_size instead for non-NOR devices in order to get the right bandwidth (at least one that fits the logs).

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.

2016-11-17mtd-utils: Add flash speed test utilityDavid Oberhollenzer
Basically a user space port of the mtd speed test kernel module. In addition to the block offset and count module parameters, the utility supports a block stride and can restore the block contents after test. Furthermore, a flag can be used to disable destructive tests (i.e. only perform read speed tests).
