This patch implements memory accessor interface in the MTD layer which enables the kernel to access flash data. This patch adds two new members to the mtd_partition structure, a function handler which will be called during setup of the partition and an argument to be passed to this setup function. Example: +static struct mtd_partition spi_flash_partitions[] = { + [0] = { + .name = "U-Boot", + .offset = 0, + .size = SZ_256K, + .mask_flags = MTD_WRITEABLE, + }, + [1] = { + .name = "U-Boot Environment", + .offset = MTDPART_OFS_NXTBLK, + .size = SZ_64K, + .mask_flags = MTD_WRITEABLE, + }, + [2] = { + .name = "Linux", + .offset = MTDPART_OFS_NXTBLK, + .size = SZ_7M, + .mask_flags = 0, + }, + [3] = { + .name = "MAC Address", + .offset = MTDPART_OFS_NXTBLK, + .size = SZ_64K, + .mask_flags = 0, + .setup = davinci_get_mac_addr, + .context = (void *)0, + }, +}; The davinci_get_mac_addr function reads the MAC address from offset ZERO of last MTD partition.
