Both MEMGETOOBSEL and ECCGETLAYOUT have been declared obsolete. Plus, the code that uses any of these is somewhat complicated and duplicated, so I agree that new code probably should use some form of the internal MTD_OOB_AUTO. Perhaps this can just be integrated into the new ioctl I'm writing as a "mode" choice? See the thread: http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-mtd/2011-August/037316.html Brian

Add new member into struct mtd_info: struct mtd_info { ...... enum { MTD_OOB_PLACE, MTD_OOB_AUTO, MTD_OOB_RAW, } oob_mode; } In function mtd_do_writeoob() (in drivers/mtd/mtdchar.c) : - ops.mode = MTD_OOB_PLACE; + ops.mode = mtd->oob_mode; Could we do it like this ?

I think the OOB mode should not be a global MTD device state. Each ioctl invocation should just specify the mode. Brian's idea of having a completely new ioctl or a set of new ioctls for OOB which would copletely deprecate the old ones is a good idea. Let's wait for his patch. May be we should even start physically removing depricated ioctls by first adding a printk with a warning and then removing completely. But first mtdutils should be updated to not use them.

I agree. This brings up some questions, though. See below. > Brian's idea of having a completely new ioctl or a set of new ioctls for > OOB which would copletely deprecate the old ones is a good idea. Let's > wait for his patch. I sent a patch series (RFC) to the MTD mailing list. You can see the cover description, which describes my proposed changes and asks some questions, at the following link, but for some reason the patches are being held up by the mailing list software - for now, you'll only receive them if you were CC'd directly: http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-mtd/2011-August/037522.html Follow that thread for more information. > May be we should even start physically removing depricated ioctls by > first adding a printk with a warning and then removing completely.

Yes, this sounds fine, although I'm not too familiar with the MTD_OOB_AUTO stuff, so I'm not sure how well it will replace all the uses of MEMGETOOBSEL. I don't actually see any users of ECCGETLAYOUT; I think I've asked about this ioctl before, but I can't seem to find any response...perhaps it can be killed with no work? Brian
