-Subject: [PATCH V10 1/3] mtd: partitions: add of_match_table parser matching
- for the "ofpart" type
-MIME-Version: 1.0
-Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
-Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
-
-In order to properly support compatibility strings as described in the
-bindings/mtd/partition.txt "ofpart" type should be treated as an
-indication for looking into OF. MTD should check "compatible" property
-and search for a matching parser rather than blindly trying the one
-supporting "fixed-partitions".
-
-It also means that existing "fixed-partitions" parser should get renamed
-to use a more meaningful name.
-
-This commit achievies that aim by introducing a new mtd_part_of_parse().
-It works by looking for a matching parser for every string in the
-"compatibility" property (starting with the most specific one).
-
-Please note that driver-specified parsers still take a precedence. It's
-assumed that driver providing a parser type has a good reason for that
-(e.g. having platform data with device-specific info). Also doing
-otherwise could break existing setups. The same applies to using default
-parsers (including "cmdlinepart") as some overwrite DT data with cmdline
-argument.
-
-Partition parsers can now provide an of_match_table to enable
-flash<-->parser matching via device tree as documented in the
-mtd/partition.txt.
-
-This support is currently limited to built-in parsers as it uses
-request_module() and friends. This should be sufficient for most cases
-though as compiling parsers as modules isn't a common choice.
