Subject: state: eMMC boot0-partitions backend for Linux
Date: Sun, 03 Nov 2019 16:45:19 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1572795919.10526.27.camel@googlemail.com> (raw)

Hi,

 I would like to use emmc-hardware-partition boot1 as a state backend,
this has the charm of keeping the big hw-partition clean while using SLC
for e.g. serial numbers.

Within barebox using an emmc-hardware-partition boot1 as a state backend
just works!

But trying to hand over this backend to Linux fails right before
starting the kernel:

  WARNING: Failed to fixup node in of_state_fixup+0x1/0x288: No such device

I guess dt-utils also has no support for using /dev/mmcblk1boot0 as a
backend (by default Linux doesn't allow to write to boot0/1) ?

What would be the best way to add this feature?

Any ideas?

 -- Christoph
