mtd-utils: Restructure the mtd-utils source.

2015-11-11T22:38:40+00:00

* There is no code modification in this commit, only moving * the files to proper place. The user tools looks a little messy as we place almost the all tools in the root directory of mtd-utils. To make it more clear, I propose to introduce the following structure for our source code. mtd-utils/ |-- lib |-- include |-- misc-utils |-- jffsX-utils |-- nand-utils |-- nor-utils |-- ubi-utils |-- ubifs-utils `-- tests Signed-off-by: Dongsheng Yang Signed-off-by: Brian Norris

mkfs.ubifs: start using common code

2014-10-20T10:47:09+00:00

Several commonly used macros are now defined in 'common.h', let's start using them in mkfs.ubifs, instead of duplicating them. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy

mkfs.ubifs: correct and improve LEB size error prints

2014-03-31T09:49:39+00:00

The error message is incorrect for "too small LEB size" -- we were printing the minimum I/O size instead of the LEB size. At the same time, let's print the max LEB size along with the message for "too large LEB size", to be consistent and more helpful. Signed-off-by: Brian Norris Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy

use xstrdup in a few more places

2013-07-01T05:56:04+00:00

These call sites either assume there is no failure (they deref the pointer right away), or the exit themselves. Use xstrdup() instead. Signed-off-by: Mike Frysinger Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy

mkfs.ubifs: allow reformatting of devices

2013-07-01T05:56:00+00:00

Sometimes I want to re-initialize an existing ubifs, but the tool currently bails out if the volume is already formatted. Prompt the user instead so they can decide. Signed-off-by: Mike Frysinger Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy

mkfs.ubifs: Improve error handling of is_contained()

2012-10-26T13:55:57+00:00

The is_contained() function returns -1 if an error occurs when canonicalizing the output file path/root directory. This resulted in the confusing error message 'Error: The output file cannot be in the UBIFS root' when specifying a non-existent directory for the output. This patch changes the error handling to display a different error message for the case when is_contained() returns -1. Additionally it frees all memory allocated by is_contained().

mkfs.ubifs: rewrite path checking

2012-10-11T07:56:58+00:00

We use the 'in_path()' function to check whether the output image is withing the mkfs.ubifs root directory or not. However, this function is not correct and it fails for the following situation, as Marcus Prebble reports: 1. We have our root file-system mounted at / and want to build an image out of it. 2. We have tmpfs mounted at /tmp 3. We mount the root file-system under /tmp/newroot 4. We run mkfs.ubifs with -r /tmp/newroot -o /tmp/image And this fails. It fails because 'in_path()' misses this use-case. This patch re-implements the check completely. Now we use 'realpath()' to find canonical paths and just check that the output file is not under the root mkfs.ubifs directory.

consistency between u_int32_t / off_t / off64_t

2012-09-25T15:06:50+00:00

We should use the off_t type instead of off64_t or u_int32_t as its length is controlled by the WITHOUT_LARGEFILE flag. Signed-off-by: Richard Genoud Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy

UBI: sync ubi-user.h with kernel v3.6-rc1

2012-08-22T10:20:49+00:00

Also remove the eraseblock type support, because kernel commit a65a0eb6d198e058687a9214683bd1c418f20d39 set the dtype parameter as obsolete. Also adjust to some renames: * 'UBI_PROP_DIRECT_WRITE' -> 'UBI_VOL_PROP_DIRECT_WRITE' * 'struct ubi_set_prop_req' -> 'struct ubi_set_vol_prop_req'. * 'UBI_IOCSETPROP' -> 'UBI_IOCSETVOLPROP' Signed-off-by: Richard Genoud Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy

mkfs.ubifs: do not ignore --max-leb-cnt when formatting an UBI volume

2012-03-07T14:08:30+00:00

When the output file is an UBI volume - mkfs.ubifs just sets --max-leb-cnt to the volume size and ignores the user-supplied --max-leb-cnt value, which is wrong. Let's set it to the volume size only if the user did not supply --max-leb-cnt. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy
