Based on this post: http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-mtd/2009-March/025060.html I am inferring that the following attributes are wanted in the MTD sysfs interface: 1) mtd_info_user fields - type, flags, size, erasesize, writesize, oobsize. So far we have "type," but it should be easy to add the rest. 2) region_info_user fields? Not really sure how this would work. Maybe a separate subdirectory for each region? -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
