Subject: [RFC PATCH] disk: Don't loop over MAX_SEARCH_PARTITIONS in part_create_block_devices()
Date: Tue, 10 Jan 2023 09:00:38 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230110080038.180628-1-sr@denx.de> (raw)
I've noticed that the first ext4 file loading from a MMC partition for
ZynqMP takes quite some time (~ 1 second). Debugging showed, that the
MMC driver reads the partition info 128 time (MAX_SEARCH_PARTITIONS)
resulting in this boot delay. To fix this, let's just end creating the
block drives in part_create_block_devices() when no more valid partition
is found. This reduces the first file reading from ~0.9s to ~0.3s.

Reasoning for RFC:
I did not dig into the current disk / partition stuff too deeply, so I'm
not 100% sure that this patch does not break anything.
