/proc/mtd 各参数的含义 -- linux内核

经/proc虚拟文件系统读取MTD分区表：cat /proc/mtd

mtd .name = raspi, .size = 0x00400000 (4M) .erasesize = 0x00010000 (64K) .numeraseregions = 0

Creating 6 MTD partitions on "raspi":

0x00000000-0x00400000 : "ALL"

0x00000000-0x00030000 : "Bootloader"

0x00030000-0x00040000 : "Config"

0x00040000-0x00050000 : "Factory"

0x00050000-0x00360000 : "Kernel"

0x00360000-0x003b0000 : "DATA"

通过这个结构体可知size是本mtd分区的最大字节数空间
，erasesize是本分区的最小擦除字节数空间（块大小，linux的flash是以块为擦除单位的） 。

以下是别人的文章：

详细由linux/drivers/mtd下的mtdcore.c文件里的mtd_read_proc函数来实现：

static inline int mtd_proc_info (char *buf, int i)

{

struct mtd_info *this = mtd_table[i];

if (!this)

return 0;

return sprintf(buf, "mtd%d: %8.8x %8.8x \"%s\"\n", i, this->size,

this->erasesize, this->name);

}

static int mtd_read_proc (char *page, char **start, off_t off, int count,

int *eof, void *data_unused)

{

int len, l, i;

off_t begin = 0;

mutex_lock(&mtd_table_mutex);

len = sprintf(page, "dev: size erasesize name\n");

for (i=0; i< MAX_MTD_DEVICES; i++) {

l = mtd_proc_info(page + len, i);

len += l;

if (len+begin > off+count)

goto done;

if (len+begin < off) {

begin += len;

len = 0;

}

}

*eof = 1;

done:

mutex_unlock(&mtd_table_mutex);

if (off >= len+begin)

return 0;

*start = page + (off-begin);

return ((count < begin+len-off) ? count : begin+len-off);

}

读出来的结果例如以下：

dev: size erasesize name

mtd0: 01000000 00020000 "boot"

mtd1: 01000000 00020000 "setting"

mtd2: 02000000 00020000 "rootfs"

mtd3: 0be00000 00020000 "home"

mtd4: 00200000 00020000 "storage"

mtd5: 00040000 00010000 "u-boot"

mtd6: 00040000 00010000 "others"



当中size和erasesize的定义在linux/include/linux/mtd下mtd.h文件里的struct mtd_info结构体定义：

struct mtd_info {

u_char type;

u_int32_t flags;

u_int32_t size; // Total size of the MTD

/* "Major" erase size for the device. users may take this

* to be the only erase size available, or may use the more detailed

* information below if they desire

*/

u_int32_t erasesize;

/* Minimal writable flash unit size. In case of NOR flash it is 1 (even

* though individual bits can be cleared), in case of NAND flash it is

* one NAND page (or half, or one-fourths of it), in case of ECC-ed NOR

* it is of ECC block size, etc. It is illegal to have writesize = 0.
