Since partitions provide start/size.
I've got some WIP that pulls the alt info from a GPT partition map on mmc.
Extraction the part of dfu_alt_info from GPT or $partitions env variable (as defined at e.g. Trats) is also a good idea.
The best solution would be to produce alt settings information as a mix of GPT layout information (extraction of part num, start offset, size... any more?) [*] and some predefined dfu_alt_info env variable. In this way we can reuse already available code (since GPT layout is already in place for most of targets).
But what about mtd parts (Nand/ UBI)? It shall be also doable to extract information [*] from it. Am I correct?
That alt settings in DFU can be strings or numbers was handy to allow the name to identify the partition.
