the value for partition_entry_lba of secondary GPT (last usable lba + 1) is not correct with MTD support as last usable LBA need to be erase size aligned
The correct location of partition entry is always recomputed with the formula : partition_entry_lba = alternate_lba - num_pte * sizeof_partition_entry / lba_size
Signed-off-by: Patrick Delaunay patrick.delaunay@st.com Reviewed-by: Christophe KERELLO christophe.kerello@st.com --- the device mapping is
1/ for block case:
last_usable_lba -> partition_entry_lba - 1 partition_entry_lba -> PTE table (num * sizeof(PTE)) alternate_lba -> secondary GPT -> end of device
2/ for MTD case : end of the last good block
-------------
last_usable_lba -> last good erase block - 1 -------------erase BLOCK aligned XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX -> skipped LBA for MTD case partition_entry_lba -> PTE table (num * sizeof(PTE)) alternate_lba -> secondary GPT -------------erase BLOCK aligned xxxxx skipping bad block ->end of device
