+ * ubi_leb_map - map logical eraseblock to a physical eraseblock.
+ * @fd: volume character device file descriptor
+ * @lnum: logical eraseblock number
+ *
+ * This function maps an un-mapped logical eraseblock @lnum to a physical
+ * eraseblock. This means, that after a successful invocation of this
+ * function the logical eraseblock @lnum will be empty (contain only %0xFF
+ * bytes) and be mapped to a physical eraseblock, even if an unclean reboot
+ * happens.
+ *
+ * This function returns zero in case of success, %-1 in case of failures.
