[apologies for the cross post] Is anyone working on ubi/ubifs support in u-boot?
I am not aware of anyone actively working on porting UBI to upstream U-Boot at this exact moment.
Is it even a good idea? The UBI (version 1 :-) initial scan is not fast for large flash, and if the bootloader does it too, that's twice as much time to boot.
However, if there was a protocol for bootloader to pass the scan results to the booted kernel, that would be very nice.
