Hi Nitin,
Thanks for the information. I just wanted to have a feedback, whether having a use-case of writing env variables from Linux User space is a good idea or is not recommended?
You found tools/env/fw_env.c showing that this functionality is indeed foreseen and used.
It is rather common to write to the U-Boot environment in projects for example to switch to a new set of kernel+file system after an update from within linux for the next boot.
Is this feedback enough?
Cheers Detlev
