ubi: Fix race condition between ubi volume creation and udev

2018-03-18T10:18:54Z

commit a51a0c8d213594bc094cb8e54aad0cb6d7f7b9a6 upstream. Similar to commit 714fb87e8bc0 ("ubi: Fix race condition between ubi device creation and udev"), we should make the volume active before registering it.

UBI: hide EBA internals

2016-10-02T20:48:14Z

Create a private ubi_eba_table struct to hide EBA internals and provide helpers to allocate, destroy, copy and assing an EBA table to a volume. Now that external EBA users are using helpers to query/modify the EBA state we can safely change the internal representation, which will be needed to support the LEB consolidation concept.

ubi: Make volume resize power cut aware

2016-07-29T21:32:01Z

When the volume resize operation shrinks a volume, LEBs will be unmapped. Since unmapping will not erase these LEBs immediately we have to wait for that operation to finish. Otherwise in case of a power cut right after writing the new volume table the UBI attach process can find more LEBs than the volume table knows. This will render the UBI image unattachable. Fix this issue by waiting for erase to complete and write the new volume table afterward. Cc: Reported-by: Boris Brezillon Reviewed-by: Boris Brezillon Signed-off-by: Richard Weinberger

UBI: Clean up return in ubi_remove_volume()

2016-05-24T13:24:26Z

My static checker says that "err" can be uninitialized if "vol->reserved_pebs" is <= 0. I don't think that can happen but returning a literal is cleaner anyway. Signed-off-by: Dan Carpenter Signed-off-by: Richard Weinberger

UBI: Use static class and attribute groups

2015-06-02T11:16:25Z

This patch cleans up the manual device_create_file() or class_create_file() calls by replacing with static attribute groups. It simplifies the code and also avoids the possible races between the device/class registration and sysfs creations. For the simplification, also make ubi_class a static instance with initializers, too. Amend a bit by Hujianyang.

UBI: Init vol->reserved_pebs by assignment

2015-06-02T09:44:43Z

`vol' is a newly allocated value by kzalloc. Initialize it by assignment instead of `+='. Signed-off-by: Sheng Yong Signed-off-by: Richard Weinberger

UBI: Extend UBI layer debug/messaging capabilities

2014-11-07T10:08:51Z

If there is more then one UBI device mounted, there is no way to distinguish between messages from different UBI devices. Add device number to all ubi layer message types. The R/O block driver messages were replaced by pr_* since ubi_device structure is not used by it. Amended a bit by Artem. Signed-off-by: Tanya Brokhman Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy

UBI: introduce helpers dbg_chk_{io, gen}

2012-12-10T11:38:59Z

With this patch code is a bit more readable and there's no generated code or functionality impact. Furthermore, this abstracts implementation details and will allow to change ubi_debug_info in a less invasive way. Signed-off-by: Ezequiel Garcia Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy

UBI: replace memcpy with struct assignment

2012-12-03T11:54:14Z

This kind of memcpy() is error-prone. Its replacement with a struct assignment is prefered because it's type-safe and much easier to read. Found by coccinelle. Hand patched and reviewed. Tested by compilation only. A simplified version of the semantic match that finds this problem is as follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/) // @@ identifier struct_name; struct struct_name to; struct struct_name from; expression E; @@ -memcpy(&(to), &(from), E); +to = from; // Signed-off-by: Peter Senna Tschudin Signed-off-by: Ezequiel Garcia Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy

UBI: harmonize the update of ubi->beb_rsvd_pebs

2012-07-18T11:30:34Z

Currently, there are several locations where an attempt to reserve more PEBs for bad PEB handling is made, with the same code being duplicated. Harmonize it by introducing 'ubi_update_reserved()'. Also, improve the debug message issued, making it more descriptive. Artem: amended the patch a little. Signed-off-by: Shmulik Ladkani Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy
