28 * UBI device creation (the same as MTD device attachment)
29 * ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
30 *
31 * MTD devices may be attached using %UBI_IOCATT ioctl command of the UBI
32 * control device. The caller has to properly fill and pass
33 * &struct ubi_attach_req object - UBI will attach the MTD device specified in
34 * the request and return the newly created UBI device number as the ioctl
35 * return value.
36 *
37 * UBI device deletion (the same as MTD device detachment)
38 * ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
39 *
40 * An UBI device maybe deleted with %UBI_IOCDET ioctl command of the UBI
41 * control device.
42 *
801c135c
AB
43 * UBI volume creation
44 * ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
45 *
f7fc6f3f 46 * UBI volumes are created via the %UBI_IOCMKVOL ioctl command of UBI character
801c135c 47 * device. A &struct ubi_mkvol_req object has to be properly filled and a
f7fc6f3f 48 * pointer to it has to be passed to the ioctl.
801c135c
AB
49 *
50 * UBI volume deletion
51 * ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
52 *
f7fc6f3f 53 * To delete a volume, the %UBI_IOCRMVOL ioctl command of the UBI character
801c135c 54 * device should be used. A pointer to the 32-bit volume ID hast to be passed
f7fc6f3f 55 * to the ioctl.
801c135c
AB
56 *
57 * UBI volume re-size
58 * ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
59 *
f7fc6f3f 60 * To re-size a volume, the %UBI_IOCRSVOL ioctl command of the UBI character
801c135c 61 * device should be used. A &struct ubi_rsvol_req object has to be properly
f7fc6f3f 62 * filled and a pointer to it has to be passed to the ioctl.
801c135c 63 *
f40ac9cd
AB
64 * UBI volumes re-name
65 * ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
66 *
67 * To re-name several volumes atomically at one go, the %UBI_IOCRNVOL command
68 * of the UBI character device should be used. A &struct ubi_rnvol_req object
f7fc6f3f 69 * has to be properly filled and a pointer to it has to be passed to the ioctl.
f40ac9cd 70 *
801c135c
AB
71 * UBI volume update
72 * ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
73 *
f7fc6f3f 74 * Volume update should be done via the %UBI_IOCVOLUP ioctl command of the
801c135c 75 * corresponding UBI volume character device. A pointer to a 64-bit update
f7fc6f3f 76 * size should be passed to the ioctl. After this, UBI expects user to write
801c135c
AB
77 * this number of bytes to the volume character device. The update is finished
78 * when the claimed number of bytes is passed. So, the volume update sequence
79 * is something like:
80 *
81 * fd = open("/dev/my_volume");
82 * ioctl(fd, UBI_IOCVOLUP, &image_size);
83 * write(fd, buf, image_size);
84 * close(fd);
86613682 85 *
f7fc6f3f 86 * Logical eraseblock erase
86613682
AB
87 * ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
88 *
f7fc6f3f
AB
89 * To erase a logical eraseblock, the %UBI_IOCEBER ioctl command of the
90 * corresponding UBI volume character device should be used. This command
91 * unmaps the requested logical eraseblock, makes sure the corresponding
92 * physical eraseblock is successfully erased, and returns.
93 *
94 * Atomic logical eraseblock change
95 * ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
96 *
97 * Atomic logical eraseblock change operation is called using the %UBI_IOCEBCH
98 * ioctl command of the corresponding UBI volume character device. A pointer to
99 * a &struct ubi_leb_change_req object has to be passed to the ioctl. Then the
100 * user is expected to write the requested amount of bytes (similarly to what
101 * should be done in case of the "volume update" ioctl).
102 *
103 * Logical eraseblock map
104 * ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
105 *
106 * To map a logical eraseblock to a physical eraseblock, the %UBI_IOCEBMAP
107 * ioctl command should be used. A pointer to a &struct ubi_map_req object is
108 * expected to be passed. The ioctl maps the requested logical eraseblock to
109 * a physical eraseblock and returns. Only non-mapped logical eraseblocks can
110 * be mapped. If the logical eraseblock specified in the request is already
111 * mapped to a physical eraseblock, the ioctl fails and returns error.
112 *
113 * Logical eraseblock unmap
114 * ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
115 *
116 * To unmap a logical eraseblock to a physical eraseblock, the %UBI_IOCEBUNMAP
117 * ioctl command should be used. The ioctl unmaps the logical eraseblocks,
118 * schedules corresponding physical eraseblock for erasure, and returns. Unlike
119 * the "LEB erase" command, it does not wait for the physical eraseblock being
120 * erased. Note, the side effect of this is that if an unclean reboot happens
121 * after the unmap ioctl returns, you may find the LEB mapped again to the same
122 * physical eraseblock after the UBI is run again.
123 *
124 * Check if logical eraseblock is mapped
125 * ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
126 *
127 * To check if a logical eraseblock is mapped to a physical eraseblock, the
128 * %UBI_IOCEBISMAP ioctl command should be used. It returns %0 if the LEB is
129 * not mapped, and %1 if it is mapped.
766fb95b
SA
130 *
131 * Set an UBI volume property
132 * ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
133 *
134 * To set an UBI volume property the %UBI_IOCSETPROP ioctl command should be
6748482f 135 * used. A pointer to a &struct ubi_set_vol_prop_req object is expected to be
766fb95b
SA
136 * passed. The object describes which property should be set, and to which value
137 * it should be set.
9d54c8a3
EG
138 *
139 * Block devices on UBI volumes
140 * ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
141 *
463c5eed
EG
142 * To create a R/O block device on top of an UBI volume the %UBI_IOCVOLCRBLK
143 * should be used. A pointer to a &struct ubi_blkcreate_req object is expected
144 * to be passed, which is not used and reserved for future usage.
145 *
146 * Conversely, to remove a block device the %UBI_IOCVOLRMBLK should be used,
147 * which takes no arguments.

246 * This data structure is used to specify MTD device UBI has to attach and the
247 * parameters it has to use. The number which should be assigned to the new UBI
86613682 248 * device is passed in @ubi_num. UBI may automatically assign the number if
9b79cc0f
AB
249 * @UBI_DEV_NUM_AUTO is passed. In this case, the device number is returned in
250 * @ubi_num.
251 *
252 * Most applications should pass %0 in @vid_hdr_offset to make UBI use default
253 * offset of the VID header within physical eraseblocks. The default offset is
254 * the next min. I/O unit after the EC header. For example, it will be offset
255 * 512 in case of a 512 bytes page NAND flash with no sub-page support. Or
256 * it will be 512 in case of a 2KiB page NAND flash with 4 512-byte sub-pages.
257 *
258 * But in rare cases, if this optimizes things, the VID header may be placed to
9c9ec147
AB
259 * a different offset. For example, the boot-loader might do things faster if
260 * the VID header sits at the end of the first 2KiB NAND page with 4 sub-pages.
261 * As the boot-loader would not normally need to read EC headers (unless it
262 * needs UBI in RW mode), it might be faster to calculate ECC. This is weird
263 * example, but it real-life example. So, in this example, @vid_hdr_offer would
264 * be 2KiB-64 bytes = 1984. Note, that this position is not even 512-bytes
265 * aligned, which is OK, as UBI is clever enough to realize this is 4th
266 * sub-page of the first page and add needed padding.

267 *
268 * The @max_beb_per1024 is the maximum amount of bad PEBs UBI expects on the

271 * maximum expected bad eraseblocks per 1024 is then:
272 * 1024 * (1 - MinNVB / MaxNVB)
273 * Which gives 20 for most NAND devices. This limit is used in order to derive
274 * amount of eraseblock UBI reserves for handling new bad blocks. If the device
275 * has more bad eraseblocks than this limit, UBI does not reserve any physical
276 * eraseblocks for new bad eraseblocks, but attempts to use available
277 * eraseblocks (if any). The accepted range is 0-768. If 0 is given, the
278 * default kernel value of %CONFIG_MTD_UBI_BEB_LIMIT will be used.

410 * The @dtype field used to inform UBI about what kind of data will be written
411 * to the LEB: long term (value 1), short term (value 2), unknown (value 3).
412 * UBI tried to pick a PEB with lower erase counter for short term data and a
413 * PEB with higher erase counter for long term data. But this was not really
414 * used because users usually do not know this and could easily mislead UBI. We
415 * removed this feature in May 2012. UBI currently just ignores the @dtype
416 * field. But for better compatibility with older kernels it is recommended to
417 * set @dtype to 3 (unknown).
