Some hardware, such as the enhanced local bus controller used on some mpc83xx chips, does ecc transparently when reading and writing data, rather than providing a generic calculate/correct mechanism that can be exported to the nand subsystem. The subsystem should not BUG() when calculate, correct, or hwctl are missing, if the methods that call them have been overridden.

posix_acl_clone does a memory allocation and sets a reference count, so posix_acl_release is needed afterwards to free it. The problem was fixed using the following semantic patch.

"include/linux/mtd/mtd.h" declares "mtd_oob_ops.retlen" as size_t, which is 64 bits on targets with a 64 bit addressing. The MEMWRITEOOB ioctl calls copy_to_user() to write it back to "mtd_oob_buf.length", which is declared in "include/linux/mtd-abi.h" as uint32_t. Since powerpc is a big endian architecture, this only copies the upper 32 bits of the address, which is always 0.

When creating a new volume, do not forget to increment the vol_count variable. Also, users are not interested in internal volumes, so do not show them in the volumes_count sysfs file. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>

UBI allows to specify MTD device name or number when the module is being loaded. When parsing MTD device identity string, it first tries to treat it as device NAME, and if that fails, it treats it as device number. Make it vice-versa as this is more logical and makes less troubles when you have an MTD device named "1" and try to load mtd1 which has different name. This is especially easy to hit when gluebi is enabled. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>

Introduce a separate mutex which serializes volumes checking, because we cammot really use volumes_mutex - it cases reverse locking problems with mtd_tbl_mutex when gluebi is used - thanks to lockdep. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>

This is one more step on the way to "removable" UBI devices. It adds reference counting for UBI devices. Every time a volume on this device is opened - the device's refcount is increased. It is also increased if someone is reading any sysfs file of this UBI device or of one of its volumes. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>

This patch is a preparation to make UBI devices dynamic. It adds an UBI control device which has dynamically allocated major number and registers itself as "ubi_ctrl". It does not do anything so far. The idea is that this device will allow to attach/detach MTD devices from userspace. This is symilar to what the Linux device mapper has. The next things to do are: * Fix UBI, because it now assumes UBI devices cannot go away * Implement control device ioctls which will attach/detach MTD devices Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>

When the WL worker is moving an LEB, the volume might go away occasionally. UBI does not handle these situations correctly. This patch introduces a new mutex which serializes wear-levelling worker and the the 'ubi_wl_put_peb()' function. Now, if one puts an LEB, and its PEB is being moved, it will wait on the mutex. And because we unmap all LEBs when removing volumes, this will make the volume remove function to wait while the LEB movement finishes. Below is an example of an oops which should be fixed by this patch: Pid: 9167, comm: io_paral Not tainted (2.6.24-rc5-ubi-2.6.git #2) EIP: 0060:[<f884a379>] EFLAGS: 00010246 CPU: 0 EIP is at prot_tree_del+0x2a/0x63 [ubi] EAX: f39a90e0 EBX: 00000000 ECX: 00000000 EDX: 00000134 ESI: f39a90e0 EDI: f39a90e0 EBP: f2d55ddc ESP: f2d55dd4 DS: 007b ES: 007b FS: 00d8 GS: 0033 SS: 0068 Process io_paral (pid: 9167, ti=f2d54000 task=f72a8030 task.ti=f2d54000) Stack: f39a95f8 ef6aae50 f2d55e08 f884a511 f88538e1 f884ecea 00000134 00000000 f39a9604 f39a95f0 efea8280 00000000 f39a90e0 f2d55e40 f8847261 f8850c3c f884eaad 00000001 000000b9 00000134 00000172 000000b9 00000134 00000001 Call Trace: [<c0105227>] show_trace_log_lvl+0x1a/0x30 [<c01052e2>] show_stack_log_lvl+0xa5/0xca [<c01053d6>] show_registers+0xcf/0x21b [<c0105648>] die+0x126/0x224 [<c0119a62>] do_page_fault+0x27f/0x60d [<c037dd62>] error_code+0x72/0x78 [<f884a511>] ubi_wl_put_peb+0xf0/0x191 [ubi] [<f8847261>] ubi_eba_unmap_leb+0xaf/0xcc [ubi] [<f8843c21>] ubi_remove_volume+0x102/0x1e8 [ubi] [<f8846077>] ubi_cdev_ioctl+0x22a/0x383 [ubi] [<c017d768>] do_ioctl+0x68/0x71 [<c017d7c6>] vfs_ioctl+0x55/0x271 [<c017da15>] sys_ioctl+0x33/0x52 [<c0104152>] sysenter_past_esp+0x5f/0xa5 ======================= Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>

This patch silences the following warning : drivers/mtd/ubi/vmt.c:73: warning: 'ret' may be used uninitialized in this function gcc can't see that we always initialize ret in all situations where it is actually used. The one case where it's not initialized is when we BUG(), but gcc doesn't know that we won't then continue and use an uninitialized 'ret'. This patch results in code that does exactely the same as before, but it also makes gcc shut up, so we generate one less line of warning noise.

The idea of this interface belongs to Adrian Hunter. The interface is extremely useful when one has to have a guarantee that an LEB will contain all 0xFFs even in case of an unclean reboot. UBI does have an 'ubi_leb_erase()' call which may do this, but it is stupid and ineffecient, because it flushes whole queue. I should be re-worked to just be a pair of unmap, map calls. The user of the interfaci is UBIFS at the moment. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>
