mtd: resync with Linux-3.7.1Can you please check if this patch is still needed with the updated MTD code posted by Heiko [1] - and if so, rebase your patch against Heiko's code base?
Thanks.
[1] http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.boot-loaders.u-boot/189358
Thank you very much for pointing this out. I have tested Heiko's code available here: repo: git://git.denx.de/u-boot-testing.git branch: update-v3-mtd+ubi-linux-v3.14
Please use the patches posted on the ML, not the branch in u-boot-testing.git for testing. Also you tested with an older version, please use the v5 version:
[U-Boot] [PATCH v5 0/5] mtd, ubi, ubifs: resync with Linux-3.14 http://lists.denx.de/pipermail/u-boot/2014-June/182501.html

Patchwork [U-Boot,v5,2/5] lib, list_sort: add list_sort from linux 3.14 http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/363335/

Patchwork [U-Boot,v5,5/5] mtd, ubi, ubifs: resync with Linux-3.14 waiting for administrator approval http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/363343/
The build error that was mentioned in this mail is still valid there:
LD drivers/pcmcia/built-in.o drivers/mtd/mtdcore.c: In function 'mtd_get_len_incl_bad': drivers/mtd/mtdcore.c:805:10: error: 'struct mtd_info' has no member named 'block_isbad' drivers/mtd/mtdcore.c:821:11: error: 'struct mtd_info' has no member named 'block_isbad' CC drivers/rtc/date.o make[1]: *** [drivers/mtd/mtdcore.o] Error 1 make: *** [drivers/mtd] Error 2 make: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....
Also re-created patch against this. Should I send it as a separate patch or would you suggest another branch for this fix ?
Looked in the v5 patches, yes it seems, there is the same problem, when enabling CONFIG_CMD_MTDPARTS_SPREAD
Please test against the above patches, and resend your patch, thanks for detecting this!
And if you test my v5 patches, feel free to send a "Tested-by" for them to the ML!
bye, Heiko
