Add a 'mbr' command to let users create or verify MBR partition layout based on the provided text description. The partition layout is alternatively read from the 'mbr_parts' environment variable. This can be used in scripts to help system image flashing tools to ensure proper partition layout. The syntax of the text description of the partition list is similar to the one used by the 'gpt' command. Supported parameters are: name (currently ignored), start (partition start offset in bytes), size (in bytes or '-' to expand it to the whole free area), bootable (boolean flag) and id (MBR partition type). If one wants to create more than 4 partitions, an 'Extended' primary partition (with 0x05 ID) has to be explicitely provided as a one of the first 4 entries. Here is an example how to create a 6 partitions (3 on the 'extended volume'), some of the predefined sizes: > setenv mbr_parts 'name=boot,start=4M,size=128M,bootable,id=0x0e; name=rootfs,size=3072M,id=0x83; name=system-data,size=512M,id=0x83; name=[ext],size=-,id=0x05; name=user,size=-,id=0x83; name=modules,size=100M,id=0x83; name=ramdisk,size=8M,id=0x83' > mbr write mmc 0 Signed-off-by: Marek Szyprowski <m.szyprowski@samsung.com>
This patch series adds support for ZFS listing and load to u-boot. To Enable zfs ls and load commands, modify the board specific config file with #define CONFIG_CMD_ZFS Steps to test: 1. After applying the patch, zfs specific commands can be seen in the boot loader prompt using UBOOT #help zfsload- load binary file from a ZFS file system zfsls - list files in a directory (default /) 2. To list the files in zfs pool, device or partition, execute zfsls <interface> <dev[:part]> [POOL/@/dir/file] For example: UBOOT #zfsls mmc 0:5 /rpool/@/usr/bin/ 3. To read and load a file from an ZFS formatted partition to RAM, execute zfsload <interface> <dev[:part]> [addr] [filename] [bytes] For example: UBOOT #zfsload mmc 2:2 0x30007fc0 /rpool/@/boot/uImage References : -- ZFS GRUB sources from Solaris GRUB-0.97 -- GRUB Bazaar repository Jorgen Lundman <lundman at lundman.net> 2012.
