MTD(memory technology device內(nèi)存技術(shù)設(shè)備) 在硬件和文件系統(tǒng)層之間的提供了一個(gè)抽象的接口，MTD是用來訪問內(nèi)存設(shè)備（如：ROM、flash）的中間層，它將內(nèi)存設(shè)備的共有特性抽取出來，從而使增加新的內(nèi)存設(shè)備驅(qū)動(dòng)程序變得更簡(jiǎn)單。MTD的源代碼都在/drivers/mtd目錄中。

MTD中間層細(xì)分為四層，按從上到下依次為：設(shè)備節(jié)點(diǎn)、MTD設(shè)備層、MTD原始設(shè)備層和硬件驅(qū)動(dòng)層。MTD中間層層次結(jié)構(gòu)圖如下：

從上圖可以看出，原始設(shè)備是MTD字符設(shè)備和MTD塊設(shè)備的抽象。

MTD設(shè)備層、MTD原始設(shè)備層和Flash硬件驅(qū)動(dòng)層之間的接口關(guān)系如下圖：

下面首先分析下MTD原始層設(shè)備
