Dear Mike Dunn, > This adds a userspace linux utility that writes the u-boot image to an mtd > partition on the docg4 nand flash. > > A special utility is required to do this because u-boot is partially loaded > by an initial program loader (IPL) that is permanently programmed to the > boot region of the flash.

The characteristics of this format can be summarized as > follows: - Flash blocks to be loaded must have a magic number in the oob > bytes of the first page of the block. > - Each page must be written redundantly in the subsequent page. > - The integrated flash controller's "reliable mode" is used, requiring > that alternate 2k regions (4 pages) are skipped when writing. > For these reasons, a u-boot image can not be written using nandwrite from > mtd-utils.
I fixed the calloc() semantics and applied, thanks. Please repost whatever is still missing in u-boot-pxa/master and I'll then roll pullRQ for mainline.
