ubiattach: introduce need_resv_pool in UBI_IOCATT

2023-11-20T06:43:34+00:00

The ioctl UBI_IOCATT has been extended with need_resv_pool parameter in [1]. This parameter is used for deciding whether to reserve PEBs for filling pool/wl_pool for target ubi device. This parameter will be effective when fastmap is enabled, which will slow down the frequency of updating fastmap by filling more free PEBs in pool/wl_pool. See details in [2].

ubiattach: introduce disable_fm in UBI_IOCATT

2023-11-20T06:43:30+00:00

The ioctl UBI_IOCATT has been extended with disable_fm parameter after [1]. This parameter is used for disabling fastmap for target ubi device. If 'disable_fm' is set, ubi doesn't create new fastmap even the module param 'fm_autoconvert' is set, and existed old fastmap will be destroyed after attaching process. A simple test case in [2].

mtd-utils: Add new syntax to get devices by name

2023-05-30T09:12:12+00:00

This introduces a new feature to the MTD command line utilities that allows MTD devices to be referenced by name instead of device node. For example this looks like: > # Display info for the MTD device with name "data" > mtdinfo mtd:data > # Copy file to MTD device with name "data" > flashcp /my/file mtd:data This follows the syntax supported by the kernel which allows MTD device's to be mounted by name[1]. Add the function mtd_find_dev_node() that accepts an MTD "identifier" and returns the MTD's device node. The function accepts a string starting with "mtd:" which it treats as the MTD's name. It then attempts to search for the MTD, and if found maps it back to the /dev/mtdX device node. If the string does not start with "mtd:", then assume it's the old style and refers directly to a MTD device node. The function is then hooked into existing tools like flashcp, mtdinfo, flash_unlock, etc. To load in the new MTD parsing code in a consistent way across programs.

libmtd: Add function to get MTD info by device name

2023-05-30T09:12:12+00:00

This is a convenience function for end users. In some situations it's easier to reference MTD device's by their name then by MTD number, as the name may be more reliable if device partitioning is dynamic or for porting between systems.

mtd-utils: Add flash_otp_erase

2021-06-12T15:16:33+00:00

On some SPI NOR flashes you can actually erase the OTP region until its fully locked. Add a small utility for that. Signed-off-by: Michael Walle Signed-off-by: David Oberhollenzer

mtd-utils: flash_erase: Add flash erase chip

2021-05-05T06:29:50+00:00

Some flash types support full erase chip command which can reduce the flash erase time. Try first to erase the entire flash and fall back to the old method if the operation fails. Signed-off-by: Larisa Ileana Grigore Signed-off-by: David Oberhollenzer

mtd-utils: Use AC_SYS_LARGEFILE

2021-02-28T12:36:26+00:00

Currently mtd-utils on 32bit systems fail on devices >2GiB due to off_t being a signed 32bit type. Add AC_SYS_LARGEFILE to make off_t a 64bit type. Adding AC_SYS_LARGEFILE results in _FILE_OFFSET_BITS being defined to 64 in include/config.h. To let this have an effect we must make sure that include/config.h is included before all other includes which is archieved by adding its inclusion to CPPFLAGS.

libubi: remove private kernel header from includes

2020-01-30T10:23:02+00:00

libubi.h includes ubi-media.h which was made private in the kernel a long time ago. There are users of libubi.h, e.g. swupdate, which have to have ubi-media.h available at build time with this inclusion. However, libubi.h uses only one symbol from ubi-media.h. Define that symbol in the header to enable using libubi.h without installing ubi-media.h. Make up for the transitive symbol use in ubiformat.c by including ubi-media.h.

libubigen: remove unnecessary include

libubigen.h does not use any symbol from mtd/ubi-media.h, so remove it from includes. Signed-off-by: Bastian Germann Signed-off-by: David Oberhollenzer

ubifs-media: Update to Linux-5.3-rc3
