Subject: Patch to support (some?) flash chips from Samsung.
Date: Mon, 23 Oct 2006 21:48:07 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20061023194806.GA32351@red.fback.net> (raw)
Hello,
following patch brings back support to (some?) flash chips from Samsung.
This applies cleanly against linux-2.6.17, for 2.6.18 requires only
trivial change.
The bad news is, that mtd doesn't work for these chips. It was working
with 2.4.30, under 2.4.32 it doesn't anymore. I try to investigate why,
maybe that is because -Os switch with gcc-3.4.x. What's interesting,
programming single bytes (words?) seems to work perfectly, changes to
a filesystem on a flash are valid -- files have proper contents, there
are no problems with filesystem consistency, etc). I hope tomorrow I will
have JTAG cable to see what went wrong with programming with mtd util.
Regards,
BO
