From 426991418796c28f2a212676c7d46c8ec59530a6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Adrian Schmutzler Date: Mon, 18 Mar 2019 00:07:31 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] ramips: Speed up eeprom read/write Reading and writing to and from flash storage is slowed down enormously by some functions which use a block size of 1. This patch reworks the extraction scripts to be much faster and efficient by reading and writing in possibly one big block. This is based on the initial commit a69e101 for ipq40xx by Christian Lamparter .
