+ The GPT partition is normally defined only for block device with

+ This option activate the GPT partition support over RAW device
+ using the MTD framework
+ - manage partition over MTD devices (as flash: NOR and NAND)
+ - extract MTD information
+ - update command gpt, mtdparts and part

+- GPT (GUID Partition Table) - it is the EFI standard part
+- MTD (Memory Technology Device) - abstraction layer for RAW flah device
+
+Introduction:
+=============
+This document describes the GPT support on MTD and usage of
+the associated command in U-Boot.
+
+The GPT is normally defined only for block device with built-in controller
+which manage flash translation layer (FTL) as MMC, SD, USB or ATA.
+
+For raw flash device, the MTD partionning are usally defined in U-Boot
+environment and provided to kernel (see mtdparts command).
+
+U-Boot support GPT for MTD device to save the partition informations of
+raw flash device directly in this device (usefull for CONFIG_ENV_IS_NOWHERE)
+and to use these informations to support MTD devices in DISTRO without
+hardcoded MTD partitioning in U-Boot environment
+
+The GPT support on top of MTD is defined under CONFIG_EFI_PARTITION_MTD.
+
+PS: DISTRO boot cmd is no yet updated
+
+GPT on MTD brief explanation:
+=============================
+
+The GPT standard is respected (header and field meaning).
+
+The GPT header and each partition need to be eraseblock-align to allow
+individual udpate for header or partiton.
+
+The primary and the backup GPT header are located in the first and
+the last -not bad- eraseblock.
+
+We assume that one eraseblock is enought for MBR and GPT header
+(size = 17 KB for 128 entry)
+
+So it not compatible with the feature CONFIG_SPI_FLASH_USE_4K_SECTORS
+
+ Layout:
+ -------
+
+ ----------------------------------------------------------
+ LBA 0-33 |Protective MBR + Primary GPT | 1rst eraseblock
+ --------------------------------------------------
+ LBA 34 | (not used) |
+ LBA N-1 | |
+ ----------------------------------------------------------
+ LBA N |Partition 1 | 2nd eraseblock
+ | | = first usable
+ -----------------------------------
+ |Partition 2 |
+ | |
+ ----------------------------------- last-1 eraseblock
+ LBA M |Partition n | = last usable
+ ----------------------------------------------------------
+ LBA M+1 | (not used) | last eraseblock
+ LBA -35 | |
+ --------------------------------------------------
+ LBA -1 to -34 |Backup GPT Header |
+ ----------------------------------------------------------
+
+ NB: this layout change (LBA0 and LBA-1) if bad block are present
+
+ GPT header:
+ -----------
+
+ for details of GPT header, see README.gpt
+
+ "Current LBA" and "Backup LBA" give the location of the primary and
+ secondary GPT header.
+
+ All the bad block are detected and skipped when the GPT header is build.
+
+ For Primary GPT:
+
+ - Current LBA = 2nd LBA of the first good eraseblock
+
+ - Backup LBA = Last LBA of the last good block
+
+ - First usable LBA = First LBA of the first usable eraseblock
+ i.e. the block after primary GPT one
+ Current LBA - 1 + erase block size
+
+ - Last usable LBA = Last LBA of the last usable eraseblock
+ i.e. the block before backup GPT one
+ Backup LBA - erase block size
+
+ Bad Block management (NAND):
+ ---------------------------
+ As the bad blocks are skipped, Current LBA and Backup LBA give the real
+ location of primary and backup GPT header
+
+ warning: the first and the last usable LBA are not guarantee
+ to be in a good block
+
+
+ Typically, the last 4 erase blocks for NAND are used for the bad block
+ table (BBT, see bbt_options and NAND_BBT_USE_FLASH).
+ They are indicated bad by MTD framework and they are also skipped.
+ So the layout for NAND with bad :
+
+ NAND layout with bad blocks:
+ ----------------------------------------------------------
+ N * BAD (*) | | skipped bad
+ -----------------------------------------------------------
+ |Protective MBR | 1rst good eraseblock
+ |Primary GPT Header |
+ | |
+ -------------------------------------------
+ | | = first usable
+ | |
+ | Partitions |
+ | |
+ | | = last usable
+ -------------------------------------------
+ | |
+ |Backup GPT Header | last good eraseblock
+ ----------------------------------------------------------
+ M * BAD (*) | | skipped bad
+ ----------------------------------------------------------
+ BBT => BAD (*) | | skipped 4 blocks
+ ----------------------------------------------------------
+ (*) BBT and block marked bad are skipped
+
+
+Drawbacks:
+==========
+1. 2 eraseblocks are used in the device just to save the GPT headers
+ (primary and backup)
+
+2. for device with back block (NAND), any read request can disturb the device
+ so the GPT header should be refreshed when one fixable bit-flip ECC error is
+ detected...
+ but it is not the case today
+
+3. for gpt write the eraseblock for the primary or backup GPT header
+ (expected good) can become bad for the erase request
+
+ And then U-Boot will mark this block bad
+
+ In this case the first / last usable LBA need to change and to skip the new
+ bad block, so header need to be recomputed
+ => the requested gpt write command failed to force new request
+ PS: the next request will work (skip the new bad block)
+
+ And as the first / last usable LBA can change the same partionning after
+ the block is marked bad
+
+GPT on MTD commands:
+====================
+some command are modified to support GPT on MTD devices under CONFIG_EFI_PARTITION_MTD
+
+ Creating GPT on MTD partitions:
+ -------------------------------
+
+ 1. Define partition layout in the environment.
+ "partitions=uuid_disk=...;name=u-boot,size=60MiB,uuid=...;
+ name=kernel,size=60MiB,uuid=...;"
+
+ 2. From U-Boot prompt type:
+ gpt write nand 0 $partitions
+ gpt write nor 0 $partitions
+
+ List GPT partition on MTD:
+ ---------------------------------
+ part list nand 0
+ part list nor 0
+
+ to find bootable partition (used for distro):
+
+ part list nand 0 -bootable nand_boot_part
+ part list nor 0 -bootable nor_boot_part
+
+ NB: bootable partition can be used with UBIFS
+
+ Generate MTD partitions from GPT:
+ ---------------------------------
+ mtdparts gpt nand0
+ mtdparts gpt nor0
+
+ Then to check mtd partition created with:
+ mtdparts
