STRUCT MTD_PART(9)

🎀 struct mtd_part(9) 🎀

okay bestie, welcome to the struct mtd_part(9) manual page — this is from the Kernel API Manual and it's literally all about the MTD partition specific fields 💅

---

✨ NAME ✨

struct mtd_part — the MTD partition specific fields, periodt 🫶

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

struct mtd_part {
    struct list_head node;
    u64 offset;
    u64 size;
    u32 flags;
 };

that's the whole vibe, no cap ✨

---

🦋 Members 🦋

• node — this is the list node that gets used to add an MTD partition to the parent partition list 🧚 it's giving "I know my place in the linked list" energy
• offset — the offset of the partition, relative to the parent offset 👑
• size — the partition size. ngl, this should be equal to mtd->size unless MTD_SLC_ON_MLC_EMULATION is set 😭
• flags — the original flags, like, before the mtdpart logic decided to tweak them based on flash constraints (things like eraseblock/pagesize alignment) 💀 so yeah, these are the pre-tweak ones

---

💖 Description 💖

so this struct is embedded in mtd_info and it contains all the partition-specific properties/fields 💅 lowkey iconic, fr fr 🍓
