How to setup or change partitions of NAND?

[x10]

Hi, All

uboot_ivt.sb can be programmed into imx28EVK through MfgTool, and NAND command can run without error after booting. But I don't know what's size of each partition in NAND, and how to change the partion. As I understand, the UTP driver in updater_ivt.sb will charge those issue, but I can not even find where the driver's code is. Please give me some hits if any body know something about these issues, thanks!

Hello, you can read the partion size with:

root@freescale-evk /home/user$ cat /proc/mtd
dev: size erasesize name
mtd0: 01400000 00020000 "gpmi-nfc-0-boot"
mtd1: 3ec00000 00020000 "gpmi-nfc-general-use"

The boot area size on mtd0 will be defined inside: linux/arch/arm/mach-mx28/device.c

static struct gpmi_nfc_platform_data gpmi_nfc_platform_data = {
  .nfc_version = 1,
  .boot_rom_version = 1,
  .clock_name = "gpmi",
  .platform_init = gpmi_nfc_platform_init,
  .platform_exit = gpmi_nfc_platform_exit,
  .min_prop_delay_in_ns = 5,
  .max_prop_delay_in_ns = 9,
  .max_chip_count = 2,
  .boot_area_size_in_bytes = 20 * SZ_1M,
  .partition_source_types = gpmi_nfc_partition_source_types,
  .partitions = 0,
  .partition_count = 0,
};

On my side the partition on mtd1 will be devided later in more logical ubifs partitions using flash utilities.

echo "*** Erasing MTD Device 1 ***"
#flash_erase /dev/mtd1 0 0
ubiformat /dev/mtd1 -y
echo "*** Attaching UBI partition ***"
ubiattach /dev/ubi_ctrl -m 1
echo "*** Creating UBI volumes ***"
ubimkvol /dev/ubi0 -n 0 -N rootfs0 -s 40MiB
ubimkvol /dev/ubi0 -n 1 -N firmware -s 40MiB
ubimkvol /dev/ubi0 -n 2 -N data -m
echo "*** Mounting ***"
mkdir /mnt/ubifs
mount -t ubifs ubi0:rootfs0 /mnt/ubifs
mkdir /mnt/firmware
mount -t ubifs ubi0:firmware /mnt/firmware
mkdir /mnt/data
mount -t ubifs ubi0:data /mnt/data
