Yes because, it should be a raw dump of the SFDP data (of whatever the flash vendor thinks is valid). You want to be able to debug non-compliant SFDP data. Otherwise, this doesn't make any sense to have it in the first place. >>> Also, we can make the saved sfdp >>> data table-agnostic so that we don't duplicate the reads in >>> parse_bfpt/smpt/4bait. >> >> This falls into the same category as above.

There are two use cases: (1) cache the data for the SFDP table parsing (2) provide a raw dump of the SFDP This patch targets (2). So first, you'd need to allocate multiple buffers, then you'd have to combine them again for the raw SFDP dump and finally you'd need to fill the gaps for the dump again. Because what I expect is to have a contiguous "sfdp" sysfs file. -michael
