| 13 | Description: | |
| 14 | The /sys/class/mtd/mtd{0,1,2,3,...} directories correspond | |
| 15 | to each /dev/mtdX character device. These may represent | |
| 16 | physical/simulated flash devices, partitions on a flash | |
| 17 | device, or concatenated flash devices. They exist regardless | |
| 18 | of whether CONFIG_MTD_CHAR is actually enabled. | |

| 24 | Description: | |
| 25 | These directories provide the corresponding read-only device | |
| 26 | nodes for /sys/class/mtd/mtdX/ . They are only created | |
| 27 | (for the benefit of udev) if CONFIG_MTD_CHAR is enabled. | |

| 33 | Description: | |
| 34 | Major and minor numbers of the character device corresponding | |
| 35 | to this MTD device (in <major>:<minor> format). This is the | |
| 36 | read-write device so <minor> will be even. | |

| 42 | Description: | |
| 43 | Major and minor numbers of the character device corresponding | |
| 44 | to the read-only variant of thie MTD device (in | |
| 45 | <major>:<minor> format). In this case <minor> will be odd. | |

| 47 | What: /sys/class/mtd/mtdX/erasesize | |
| 48 | Date: April 2009 | |
| 49 | KernelVersion: 2.6.29 | |
| 50 | Contact: linux-mtd@lists.infradead.org | |
| 51 | Description: | |
| 52 | "Major" erase size for the device. If numeraseregions is | |
| 53 | zero, this is the eraseblock size for the entire device. | |
| 54 | Otherwise, the MEMGETREGIONCOUNT/MEMGETREGIONINFO ioctls | |
| 55 | can be used to determine the actual eraseblock layout. | |

| 61 | Description: | |
| 62 | A hexadecimal value representing the device flags, ORed | |
| 63 | together: | |
| 64 | ||
| 65 | 0x0400: MTD_WRITEABLE - device is writable | |
| 66 | 0x0800: MTD_BIT_WRITEABLE - single bits can be flipped | |
| 67 | 0x1000: MTD_NO_ERASE - no erase necessary | |
| 68 | 0x2000: MTD_POWERUP_LOCK - always locked after reset | |

| 82 | Description: | |
| 83 | For devices that have variable eraseblock sizes, this | |
| 84 | provides the total number of erase regions. Otherwise, | |
| 85 | it will read back as zero. | |

| 115 | Description: | |
| 116 | Minimal writable flash unit size. This will always be | |
| 117 | a positive integer. | |
| 118 | ||
| 119 | In the case of NOR flash it is 1 (even though individual | |
| 120 | bits can be cleared). | |
| 121 | ||
| 122 | In the case of NAND flash it is one NAND page (or a | |
| 123 | half page, or a quarter page). | |
| 124 | ||
| 125 | In the case of ECC NOR, it is the ECC block size. |
