27 * UBI device creation (the same as MTD device attachment)
28 * ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
29 *
30 * MTD devices may be attached using %UBI_IOCATT ioctl command of the UBI
31 * control device. The caller has to properly fill and pass
32 * &struct ubi_attach_req object - UBI will attach the MTD device specified in
33 * the request and return the newly created UBI device number as the ioctl
34 * return value.
35 *
36 * UBI device deletion (the same as MTD device detachment)
37 * ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
38 *
39 * An UBI device maybe deleted with %UBI_IOCDET ioctl command of the UBI
40 * control device.
41 *
801c135c
AB
42 * UBI volume creation
43 * ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
44 *
f7fc6f3f 45 * UBI volumes are created via the %UBI_IOCMKVOL ioctl command of UBI character
801c135c 46 * device. A &struct ubi_mkvol_req object has to be properly filled and a
f7fc6f3f 47 * pointer to it has to be passed to the ioctl.
801c135c
AB
48 *
49 * UBI volume deletion
50 * ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
51 *
f7fc6f3f 52 * To delete a volume, the %UBI_IOCRMVOL ioctl command of the UBI character
801c135c 53 * device should be used. A pointer to the 32-bit volume ID hast to be passed
f7fc6f3f 54 * to the ioctl.
801c135c
AB
55 *
56 * UBI volume re-size
57 * ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
58 *
f7fc6f3f 59 * To re-size a volume, the %UBI_IOCRSVOL ioctl command of the UBI character
801c135c 60 * device should be used. A &struct ubi_rsvol_req object has to be properly
f7fc6f3f 61 * filled and a pointer to it has to be passed to the ioctl.
801c135c 62 *
f40ac9cd
AB
63 * UBI volumes re-name
64 * ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
65 *
66 * To re-name several volumes atomically at one go, the %UBI_IOCRNVOL command
67 * of the UBI character device should be used. A &struct ubi_rnvol_req object
f7fc6f3f 68 * has to be properly filled and a pointer to it has to be passed to the ioctl.
f40ac9cd 69 *
801c135c
AB
70 * UBI volume update
71 * ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
72 *
f7fc6f3f 73 * Volume update should be done via the %UBI_IOCVOLUP ioctl command of the
801c135c 74 * corresponding UBI volume character device. A pointer to a 64-bit update
f7fc6f3f 75 * size should be passed to the ioctl. After this, UBI expects user to write
801c135c
AB
76 * this number of bytes to the volume character device. The update is finished
77 * when the claimed number of bytes is passed. So, the volume update sequence
78 * is something like:
79 *
80 * fd = open("/dev/my_volume");
81 * ioctl(fd, UBI_IOCVOLUP, &image_size);
82 * write(fd, buf, image_size);
83 * close(fd);
86613682 84 *
f7fc6f3f 85 * Logical eraseblock erase
86613682
AB
86 * ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
87 *
f7fc6f3f
AB
88 * To erase a logical eraseblock, the %UBI_IOCEBER ioctl command of the
89 * corresponding UBI volume character device should be used. This command
90 * unmaps the requested logical eraseblock, makes sure the corresponding
91 * physical eraseblock is successfully erased, and returns.
92 *
93 * Atomic logical eraseblock change
94 * ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
95 *
96 * Atomic logical eraseblock change operation is called using the %UBI_IOCEBCH
97 * ioctl command of the corresponding UBI volume character device. A pointer to
98 * a &struct ubi_leb_change_req object has to be passed to the ioctl. Then the
99 * user is expected to write the requested amount of bytes (similarly to what
100 * should be done in case of the "volume update" ioctl).
101 *
102 * Logical eraseblock map
103 * ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
104 *
105 * To map a logical eraseblock to a physical eraseblock, the %UBI_IOCEBMAP
106 * ioctl command should be used. A pointer to a &struct ubi_map_req object is
107 * expected to be passed. The ioctl maps the requested logical eraseblock to
108 * a physical eraseblock and returns. Only non-mapped logical eraseblocks can
109 * be mapped. If the logical eraseblock specified in the request is already
110 * mapped to a physical eraseblock, the ioctl fails and returns error.
111 *
112 * Logical eraseblock unmap
113 * ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
114 *
115 * To unmap a logical eraseblock to a physical eraseblock, the %UBI_IOCEBUNMAP
116 * ioctl command should be used. The ioctl unmaps the logical eraseblocks,
117 * schedules corresponding physical eraseblock for erasure, and returns. Unlike
118 * the "LEB erase" command, it does not wait for the physical eraseblock being
119 * erased. Note, the side effect of this is that if an unclean reboot happens
120 * after the unmap ioctl returns, you may find the LEB mapped again to the same
121 * physical eraseblock after the UBI is run again.
122 *
123 * Check if logical eraseblock is mapped
124 * ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
125 *
126 * To check if a logical eraseblock is mapped to a physical eraseblock, the
127 * %UBI_IOCEBISMAP ioctl command should be used. It returns %0 if the LEB is
128 * not mapped, and %1 if it is mapped.
766fb95b
SA
129 *
130 * Set an UBI volume property
131 * ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
132 *
133 * To set an UBI volume property the %UBI_IOCSETPROP ioctl command should be
6748482f 134 * used. A pointer to a &struct ubi_set_vol_prop_req object is expected to be
766fb95b
SA
135 * passed. The object describes which property should be set, and to which value
136 * it should be set.

224 * @vid_hdr_offset: VID header offset (use defaults if %0)
225 * @padding: reserved for future, not used, has to be zeroed
226 *
227 * This data structure is used to specify MTD device UBI has to attach and the
228 * parameters it has to use. The number which should be assigned to the new UBI
86613682 229 * device is passed in @ubi_num. UBI may automatically assign the number if
9b79cc0f
AB
230 * @UBI_DEV_NUM_AUTO is passed. In this case, the device number is returned in
231 * @ubi_num.
232 *
233 * Most applications should pass %0 in @vid_hdr_offset to make UBI use default
234 * offset of the VID header within physical eraseblocks. The default offset is
235 * the next min. I/O unit after the EC header. For example, it will be offset
236 * 512 in case of a 512 bytes page NAND flash with no sub-page support. Or
237 * it will be 512 in case of a 2KiB page NAND flash with 4 512-byte sub-pages.
238 *
239 * But in rare cases, if this optimizes things, the VID header may be placed to
9c9ec147
AB
240 * a different offset. For example, the boot-loader might do things faster if
241 * the VID header sits at the end of the first 2KiB NAND page with 4 sub-pages.
242 * As the boot-loader would not normally need to read EC headers (unless it
243 * needs UBI in RW mode), it might be faster to calculate ECC. This is weird
244 * example, but it real-life example. So, in this example, @vid_hdr_offer would
245 * be 2KiB-64 bytes = 1984. Note, that this position is not even 512-bytes
246 * aligned, which is OK, as UBI is clever enough to realize this is 4th
247 * sub-page of the first page and add needed padding.
