2012-01-09mtd: harmonize mtd_writev usageArtem Bityutskiy
This patch makes the 'mtd_writev()' function more usable and logical. We first teach it to fall-back to the 'default_mtd_writev()' function if the MTD driver does not define its own '->writev()' method. Then we make block2mtd and JFFS2 just 'mtd_writev()' instead of 'default_mtd_writev()' function. This means we can now stop exporting 'default_mtd_writev()' and instead, export 'mtd_writev()'. This is much cleaner and more logical, as well as allows us to get read of another direct 'mtd->writev' access in JFFS2.

2007-04-25[JFFS2] Tidy up licensing/copyright boilerplate.David Woodhouse
In particular, remove the bit in the LICENCE file about contacting Red Hat for alternative arrangements. Their errant IS department broke that arrangement a long time ago -- the policy of collecting copyright assignments from contributors came to an end when the plug was pulled on the servers hosting the project, without notice or reason. We do still dual-license it for use with eCos, with the GPL+exception licence approved by the FSF as being GPL-compatible. It's just that nobody has the right to license it differently.

2005-11-06[JFFS2] Call summary collector for all mtd devices with writev supportFerenc Havasi
Do the summary collection in the right place. If the device was not writebuffered but had c->mtd->writev function (e.g. blkmtd) the summary collector function was not called. Signed-off-by: Ferenc Havasi <havasi@inf.u-szeged.hu> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
2005-11-06[JFFS2] Add erase block summary support (mount time improvement)Ferenc Havasi
The goal of summary is to speed up the mount time. Erase block summary (EBS) stores summary information at the end of every (closed) erase block. It is no longer necessary to scan all nodes separetly (and read all pages of them) just read this "small" summary, where every information is stored which is needed at mount time. This summary information is stored in a JFFS2_FEATURE_RWCOMPAT_DELETE. During the mount process if there is no summary info the orignal scan process will be executed. EBS works with NAND and NOR flashes, too. There is a user space tool called sumtool to generate this summary information for a JFFS2 image.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
