[U-Boot] [PATCH v2 2/7] disk: part: Extend API to get partition info

Wed Dec 12 17:12:29 UTC 2018


This patch adds part_get_info_by_dev_and_name_or_num() function which
allows us to get partition info from its number or name. Partition of
interest is specified by string like "device_num:partition_number" or
"device_num#partition_name".

The patch was extracted from [1].
