ubi: Fix race condition between ubi device creation and udev

2016-11-20T01:01:29Z

commit 714fb87e8bc05ff78255afc0dca981e8c5242785 upstream. Install the UBI device object before we arm sysfs. Otherwise udev tries to read sysfs attributes before UBI is ready and udev rules will not match.

UBI: fix autoresize handling in R/O mode

2012-10-17T02:48:18Z

commit abb3e01103eb4e2ea5c15e6fedbc74e08bd4cc2b upstream. Currently UBI fails in autoresize when it is in R/O mode (e.g., because the underlying MTD device is R/O). This patch fixes the issue - we just skip autoresize and print a warning. Reported-by: Pali Rohár Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings

UBI: fix oops in error path

2011-06-01T08:23:12Z

This patch fixes an oops in the error path of 'ubi_attach_mtd_dev()'. If anything after 'uif_init()' fails, we get an oops in 'cancel_pending()'. The reason is that 'uif_close()' drops the last reference count for 'ubi->dev' and whole 'struct ubi_device' is freed. And then 'ubi_wl_close()'->'cancel_pending()' tries to access the 'ubi' pointer and problems begin. Note, in 'ubi_detach_mtd_dev()' function we get a device reference to work-around this issue. Do the same in the error path of 'ubi_attach_mtd_dev()'. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy

UBI: use debugfs for the extra checks knobs

2011-06-01T08:21:47Z

This patch introduces debugfs support to UBI. All the UBI stuff is kept in the "ubi" debugfs directory, which contains per-UBI device "ubi/ubiX" sub-directories, containing debugging files. This file also creates "ubi/ubiX/chk_gen" and "ubi/ubiX/chk_io" knobs for switching general and I/O extra checks on and off. And it removes the 'debug_chks' UBI module parameters.

UBI: make tests modes dynamic

2011-03-16T11:50:17Z

Similarly to the debugging checks and message, make the test modes be dynamically selected via the "debug_tsts" module parameter or via the "/sys/module/ubi/parameters/debug_tsts" sysfs file. This is consistent with UBIFS as well. And now, since all the Kconfig knobs became dynamic, we can remove the Kconfig.debug file completely. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy

UBI: kill debugging buffer

2011-03-16T11:50:16Z

This patch kills the 'ubi->dbg_peb_buf' debugging buffer and the associated mutex, because all users of this buffer are now gone. We are killing this buffer because we are going to switch to dynamic debugging control, just like in UBIFS, which means that CONFIG_MTD_UBI_DEBUG_PARANOID will be removed. In this case we'd end up always allocating 'ubi->dbg_peb_buf', which is rather large (128KiB or more), and this would be wasteful. Thus, we are just killing it. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy

UBI: incorporate maximum write size

2011-03-08T08:12:48Z

Incorporate MTD write buffer size into UBI device information because UBIFS needs this field. UBI does not use it ATM, just provides to upper layers in 'struct ubi_device_info'. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy

UBI: add slab cache for ubi_scan_leb objects

2011-02-06T17:19:23Z

During scanning UBI allocates one struct ubi_scan_leb object for each PEB, so it can end up allocating thousands of them. Use slab cache to reduce memory consumption for these 48-byte objects, because currently used 'kmalloc()' ends up allocating 64 bytes per object, instead of 48. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy

UBI: cleanup LEB start calculations

2011-01-26T08:14:17Z

Wrong macro was used in calculating the data offset: UBI_EC_HDR_SIZE instead of UBI_VID_HDR_SIZE. The data offset should be VID header offset + VID header size (aligned to the minimum I/O unit). This was not a bug only because currently UBI_EC_HDR_SIZE and UBI_VID_HDR_SIZE have the same value of 64 bytes. Commit message was amended by Artem.
