Hello ubooters and yaffsers
Hi Charles,
I was commissioned to refresh yaffs2 in u-boot and add a mechanism to support dynamic yaffs partition set up (way simpler than screwing around with mtd part) and manual configuration.
Rather than do this as a once off, I set this scripting up so that this can be done at any time (painlessly I hope) to bring in the fresh code (as per Linux patching).
Just to put this out there, if you're not submitting patches to get the code into git, should the current support in-tree be removed?
I think it is worth having yaffs in the main code base, but not the old stuff.
The primary reason to have a "patch-in" script is to allow people to refresh the yaffs they are using in a pretty painless way.
Well, why do not push your patches directly to ML ? This increases surely the number of testers, and after ypur patches will be merged thare is not need for external scripts.
I have sent a pull request to the list. https://github.com/cdhmanning/u-boot-yaffs2
