Hi Babic,

	Thanks for reviewing the patch.

	I will send out a new patch to fix the problems you point out.

	For setting block numbers for MMC offset, I just don't want env mmc to be different. I want users to use it as similiar as other env devices.

	For the initalization for ARM and PPC, It will be added for all architectures.

	Thanks a lot ~~

Yours
Terry

This seems not correct. If not explicitely set, we get a compiler error.
Assuming you has taken this check from env_nand.c, this should be:

#if defined(CONFIG_CMD_SAVEENV) && defined(CONFIG_CMD_MMC)

Line too long.

Ditto.

Line too long.

The alignment to block size is repeated here and in the read function.
Should not better to set a macro (something like BLOCK_ALIGN) providing the required alignment ?

Why is the MMC device hard-coded ? At least should be configurable with a CONFIG_ option. There are boards with more than one MMC controller and you constraint to use always the first one.

Already said, a macro is much more readable to perform alignment.

You missed Wolfgang's comment. I think also that there is no reason to set offset for the MMC and block numbers makes more sense.

I am quite confused. You add the initialization only for ARM and PPC.
What about the other architectures ?

I tested your patch on mx51evk, environment is correctly read/written on the SD situated on the back.

Stefano
