Subject: mtd_info/mtd_info_user>size wrong type
Date: Sat, 7 Apr 2007 08:49:37 +1200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <200704070849.38048.manningc2@actrix.gen.nz> (raw)

Folks
As people are starting to use larger NAND partitions (4GB+), an inconsistency 
in the size field has become apparent.

This is a unint32_t which is clearly too small for modern NAND arrays.

The read/write funcions use loff_t which is correct.

It would seem that size needs to be increated to loff_t too.
