Subject: [PATCH v2 2/3] mtd: cmdlinepart: fix the wrong partitions number when truncating occurs
Date: Tue, 4 Sep 2012 15:43:47 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1346744628-13840-2-git-send-email-b32955@freescale.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1346744628-13840-1-git-send-email-b32955@freescale.com>
This patch is based on the assumption that all the partitions are
in the right offset order.
Assume we have a 1GB(8Gb) nand chip, and we set the partitions
in the command line like this:
#gpmi-nand:100m(boot),100m(kernel),1g(rootfs)
In this case, the partition truncating occurs. The current code will
get the following result:
----------------------------------
root@freescale ~$ cat /proc/mtd
dev: size erasesize name
mtd0: 06400000 00040000 "boot"
mtd1: 06400000 00040000 "kernel"
----------------------------------
It is obvious that we lost the truncated partition `rootfs` which should
be 824M in this case.
Why? The old code sets the wrong partitions number when the truncating
occurs. This patch fixes it. Alao add a `break` to shortcut the code in this
case.
After apply this patch, the result becomes:
----------------------------------
root@freescale ~$ cat /proc/mtd
dev: size erasesize name
mtd0: 06400000 00040000 "boot"
mtd1: 06400000 00040000 "kernel"
mtd2: 33800000 00040000 "rootfs"
----------------------------------
We get the right result.
