From f6f5e263b1d7edfbb2faed57f4c54dcfd19e9423 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Artem Bityutskiy Date: Sun, 16 Dec 2007 16:59:31 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] UBI: add UBI control device This patch is a preparation to make UBI devices dynamic. It adds an UBI control device which has dynamically allocated major number and registers itself as "ubi_ctrl". It does not do anything so far. The idea is that this device will allow to attach/detach MTD devices from userspace. This is symilar to what the Linux device mapper has. The next things to do are: * Fix UBI, because it now assumes UBI devices cannot go away * Implement control device ioctls which will attach/detach MTD devices Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy --- Reading git-format-patch failed
