[U-Boot] [PATCH 1/2] env_mmc: make board configurable the partition for the environment

[U-Boot] [PATCH 1/2] env_mmc: make board configurable the partition for the environment

[Hector Palacios]

This complements commit 9404a5fc7cb58 "env_mmc: allow environment to be
in an eMMC partition" by allowing boards to accommodate the partition
to use for the environment in different scenarios (similarly to what is
done with the mmc dev number). Depending on the detected boot media,
boards may decide to store the environment in a different partition.

The __weak function also allows to remove some ifdefs from the code.
If CONFIG_SYS_MMC_ENV_PART is not defined, partition 0 is assumed
(default value for U-Boot when a partition is not provided).

[U-Boot] [PATCH 2/2] env_mmc: default to 0 if CONFIG_SYS_MMC_ENV_DEV not defined

[Hector Palacios]

Since function mmc_get_env_devno is __weak and can be overridden by
board code, boards do not necessarily need to define
CONFIG_SYS_MMC_ENV_DEV. If the constant is not defined, return 0 by
default.

Maybe:

#ifndef CONFIG_SYS_MMC_ENV_PART
#define CONFIG_SYS_MMC_ENV_PART 0
#endif

__weak int mmc_get_env_partno(void)
{
    return CONFIG_SYS_MMC_ENV_PART;
}

Maybe use same default define, if not set?

Much better. I'll do this for both patches. Thanks.

One advantage of the ifdefs is that it means zero code size bloat for
people who haven't defined CONFIG_SYS_MMC_ENV_PART. I'm not that
concerned about the issue for this amount of code, so don't take this as
a nak from me, but I'm sure others will be.

Also, it seems like a good idea to explicitly force people to think
about the partition ID they want the environment stored in, rather than
assume some potentially incorrect default for it?

With this implementation, you'd want that to be #else

... and the #endif here, so you don't end up with two return statements
back-to-back in the function in one case.

Ah, I see that's a better justification for allowing the define not to
be set.

Same comment here; need a #else here, and #endif below.

Re: Hector's comments: Perhaps the following in
include/config_fallbacks.h would be appropriate?

#ifndef CONFIG_SYS_MMC_ENV_DEV
#define CONFIG_SYS_MMC_ENV_DEV 0
#endif

?

This define is only used in common/env_mmc.c so I think the default definition should 
stay on that file, rather than in include/config_fallbacks.h.
