u-boot.git/cmd/blk_common.c, branch v2017.09 Unnamed repository; edit this file 'description' to name the repository. dm: blk: Add a generic function for block device commands 2017-08-17T07:44:16+00:00 Simon Glass sjg@chromium.org 2017-07-29T17:34:54+00:00 4395f6673901196b58821e2e9e37fb8e93b25528 Most block devices provide a command (e.g. 'sata', 'scsi', 'ide') and these commands generally do the same thing. This makes it harder to maintain this code and keep it consistent. We now have a block device interface which is either implemented by driver model (when CONFIG_BLK is enabled) or with a legacy interface. Therefore it is possible to handle most of what these commands do with generic code. Add a new generic function to process block-device commands using the interface type and the current device number for that type. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass <sjg@chromium.org> 
Most block devices provide a command (e.g. 'sata', 'scsi', 'ide') and
these commands generally do the same thing. This makes it harder to
maintain this code and keep it consistent.

Add a new generic function to process block-device commands using the
interface type and the current device number for that type.
