* kernel: drop unused arch_split_mtd_part()Rafał Miłecki2018-11-241-1/+1
| | | | | | | No single target/arch uses it and most likely there is no need to make such a potential code target/arch specific. Signed-off-by: Rafał Miłecki <rafal@milecki.pl>
* kernel: don't auto-split "firmware" if it has "compatible" DT propertyRafał Miłecki2018-11-241-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | If "compatible" is being used that should trigger a proper parser directly. It's more reliable thanks to not trying parsers one by one. In such case partition shouldn't be split automatically to avoid parsing it twice. Signed-off-by: Rafał Miłecki <rafal@milecki.pl>
* kernel: move diff adding run_parsers_by_type() between mtd patchesRafał Miłecki2018-11-201-1/+38
| | | | | | | | It makes more sense to add run_parsers_by_type() in a patch that introduces parser types. That makes the other one just add a code using it. Signed-off-by: Rafał Miłecki <rafal@milecki.pl>
* kernel: don't export parse_mtd_partitions_by_type() in 4.9 and 4.14Rafał Miłecki2018-11-201-23/+18
| | | | | | That function isn't used anywhere out of the mtdpart.c & can be static. Signed-off-by: Rafał Miłecki <rafal@milecki.pl>
* kernel: backport mtd support for subpartitions in DTRafał Miłecki2018-07-271-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is a new & warm feature that allows nesting partiitons in DT and mixing their types (e.g. static vs. dynamic). It's very useful for boards that have most partitions static but some of them require extra parsing (e.g. a "firmware" partition). It's required to successfully backport support for new devices using that new syntax in their DT files. Since brcm63xx has a custom alternative patch the upstream one is being reverted for it. The plan is to make brcm63xx use the upstream implementation. Signed-off-by: Rafał Miłecki <rafal@milecki.pl>
* kernel: backport mtd patch for minor partitioning cleanupRafał Miłecki2018-05-121-1/+1

* kernel: use V10 of mtd patchset adding support for "compatible" stringRafał Miłecki2018-03-141-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | In the commit bde5e7a632ef0 ("kernel: backport mtd implementation for "compatible" in "partitions" subnode") patches that got accepted into l2-mtd.git were backported to the kernels 4.9 and 4.14. Unfortunately there was a regression report, patches were dropped and never reached 4.16. This commit replaces these pseudo-backports with the latest version that includes regression fix and futher changes that were requested. Signed-off-by: Rafał Miłecki <rafal@milecki.pl>
* kernel: backport mtd implementation for "compatible" in "partitions" subnodeRafał Miłecki2018-01-111-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | This backports upstream support for "compatible" DT property set for the "partitions" subnode of flash node. It allows specifying how partitions should be created/parsed. Right now only "fixed-partitions" is supported. It should eventually replace our downstream "linux,part-probe" solution. Signed-off-by: Rafał Miłecki <rafal@milecki.pl>
