Subject: MMC/eMMC partitioning support.
Date: Sat, 19 Mar 2011 06:18:10 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1300533491-2378-1-git-send-email-andreiw@motorola.com> (raw)
MMC devices can have boot partitions, as well as a non-replayable
memory block and some general purpose partitions present. As of the moment,
these are not accessible from Linux. I'm sending a patch for comments and review to enable
the boot partitions.
The MMC partitions are effectively separate devices from the default-accessible user area
partition, hence, the extra partitions are exposed as separate block devices.

[RFC] MMC: MMC boot partitions support.
Thanks,
A
