From: Pali RohÃr
Date: Fri Jun 02 2017 - 11:44:05 EST
This patch series extends block2mtd and ubi drivers to better handle
read-only devices and allow to load UBI image from local file which was
created for nand device.
Tested for Nokia N900 with Maemo 5 rootfs ubifs image
(rootfs_RX-51_2009SE_21.2011.38-1_PR_MR0) which has erase size 128k,
write size 2k and nand subpage shift 2.
$ losetup -r /dev/loop0 rootfs_RX-51_2009SE_21.2011.38-1_PR_MR0.ubifs
$ echo -n /dev/loop0,131072,2048,2 > /sys/module/block2mtd/parameters/block2mtd
$ ubiattach -p /dev/mtd0
$ mount /dev/ubi0_0 /mnt/ubi -t ubifs
...
$ umount /dev/ubi0_0
$ ubidetach -p /dev/mtd0
$ echo -n del=/dev/loop0 > /sys/module/block2mtd/parameters/block2mtd
$ losetup -d /dev/loop0
Pali RohÃr (5):

mtd: block2mtd: Add support for specifying MTD write size and subpage
shift
mtd: block2mtd: Fallback to read-only mode
