Hello,
thanks for the review.

I have taken in account your observations and I am applying the
suggested fixes (see comments).

> Can the FTL and partition parser be used separately ?

The parser needs the FTL to read.
The FTL could be used elsewhere but I only know about Sharp Zaurus using it.

I put the original 2.4 files here:
https://github.com/LinuxPDA/Sharp_FTL_2.4.20

Well, I needed a wrapper for the old mtd->read_oob() ...
this example comes straight from other sources (ntflcore.c, inftlcore.c,).
I do a check afterwards: if ((ret != 0) || (mtd->oobsize != retlen))..

About this, I am doing a personal battle with checkpatch.pl --strict.
I'll fix all the indentings, sorry for the eyesore.

Apparently not. This is necessary or you get wrong result.

Probably yes but I'll need help with the new implementation.

I'm open to suggestions: I started taking the old code.
Here the sources had a nice #if defined() and the oob was [16] or [64].
The right size is the oobsize.

I have just replaced that with UINT_MAX so one can imagine at least
the bit mask.
They mark the [i] with an out-of-range value, which will be always
bigger than the number of blocks.

This is another big change, I see the other parsers do use pr_err et

Well, yes, because it is an unsigned int, set to UINT_MAX.
If you cast it to int it becomes negative again afais.

I'll try to rewrite it so to check block boundaries.

Yes, ofc, but I thought it is better to let it simple.
The extra loop and code needed will not give much shorter file.

As said above, most parsers do use pr_err/pr_warn.
I am tempted to remove these messages as well: the parser should not need debug.

As above, taken straight from the other parsers.

I know there is still much work to do: I am working at a v2 of the
patch, much shorter.
https://github.com/LinuxPDA/linux/tree/sharpslpart_v2

I'll try to improve it more. Let's wait some more reviews.

Regards
Andrea.
