Dear Stijn,
In message 405242335239DD41A819B4B5F37E07D618334340@xmb-rcd-x04.cisco.com you wrote:
I want to read files from an ext2 filesystem stored in a flash that is mapp ed to a physical address range. To be able to use the ext2 commands I think what I need is a block device (block_dev_desc_t) that treats an address ra nge as a block device.
Please restrict your line length to some 70 characters...
Does something like this already exist in u-boot or do I have to write one from scratch.
This does not exist yet, but will come more or less automatically when we introduce the device driver model. Unfortunately, the DM work is a bit behind schedule.
Best regards,
Wolfgang Denk
