[U-Boot] [PATCH v4 2/2] fastboot: handle flash write to GPT partitions

Steve Rae srae at broadcom.com
Sat Dec 13 00:51:54 CET 2014


Implement a feature to allow fastboot to write the downloaded image
to the space reserved for the Protective MBR and the Primary GUID
Partition Table.
Additionally, prepare and write the Backup GUID Partition Table.

Signed-off-by: Steve Rae <srae at broadcom.com>
---

Changes in v4:
fix bug with partition_entry_lba in Backup GPT
use common static functions

Changes in v3:
- prefer leXX_to_cpu() over cpu_to_leXX()
- enhance calculation of pointer to GPT Entries
- prepare and write the Backup GPT
   (requested by: Lukasz Majewski <l.majewski at samsung.com>)

Changes in v2:
add validation of the GPT before writing to flash
(suggested by: Lukasz Majewski <l.majewski at samsung.com>)
