The "struct nand_oobinfo" is able to record only 32 ECC code positions,which
is not enough for many big NAND chips. Therefore, this structure is replaced
by "struct nand_ecclayout" in linux kernel from the version 2.6.17.
Consequently, the ioctl command changed from MEMGETOOBSEL to ECCGETLAYOUT.

Now update flash_eraseall to use the new ioctl command ECCGETLAYOUT. In order
to keep compatible with the old linux kernel, a linux version detection
function is added.

The fopen could fail and if it does, I think you should default to "assume latest kernel"
Same goes for fscanf, you should at least test the return value.

Forgot, use uname(2) instead of /proc/version

Does the above scanf work on "2.6.31-gentoo-r6"?

I am not sure what kernel version the proc file "version" began to exist.
If the fopen failed, it must be a old kernel, so I set the default to 
the old kernel.
It is the same with the current mtd-utils.

Why ?

I didn't do the test on all the platforms. Is there any reason that 
cause it not to work ?

Forgot to say: Hi
:)

But the proc FS might not be mounted.

I think that behaviour is wrong, one should assume current kernel should
one fail to retrive the exact version since it is much more likly that
the user is running someting new enough.

Cleaner, faster, shorter, more portable, less likely to fail.

I don't remeber how picky scanf is, will it parse the numbers correctly
when you have non WS trailing chars? In any case you need to check the
return value so you know if it failed.

Here is a quick example of uname(2):

#include <stdio.h>
#include <sys/utsname.h>

int main()
{
	int a, b, c , ret;
	struct utsname buf;

	ret = uname (&buf);
	if (ret < 0)
		return -1;
	ret = sscanf(buf.release, "%d.%d.%d", &a, &b, &c);
	if (ret != 3)
		return -1;
	printf("a:%d, b:%d, c:%d, ret:%d\n", a, b, c, ret);
	return 0;
}
