+ * @lnum: logical eraseblock number

+ * @used_ebs: total number of used logical eraseblocks in this volume
+ * @data_pad: how many bytes at the end of this eraseblock are not used
+ * @data_crc: CRC checksum of data containing in this eraseblock
+ * @padding1: reserved for future, zeroes
+ * @ivol_data: private data of internal volumes
+ * @hdr_crc: volume identifier header CRC checksum
+ *
+ * The @leb_ver and the @copy_flag fields are used to distinguish between older
+ * and newer copies of logical eraseblocks, as well as to guarantee robustness
+ * to unclean reboots. As UBI erases logical eraseblocks asynchronously, it has
+ * to distinguish between older and newer copies of eraseblocks. This is done
+ * using the @version field. On the other hand, when UBI moves an eraseblock,
+ * its version is also increased and the @copy_flag is set to 1. Additionally,
+ * when moving eraseblocks, UBI calculates data CRC and stores it in the
+ * @data_crc field, even for dynamic volumes.
+ *
+ * Thus, if there are 2 eraseblocks of the same volume and logical number, UBI
+ * uses the following algorithm to pick one of them. It first picks the one
+ * with larger version (say, A). If @copy_flag is not set, then A is picked. If
+ * @copy_flag is set, UBI checks the CRC of the eraseblock (@data_crc). This is
+ * needed to ensure that copying was finished. If the CRC is all right, A is
+ * picked. If not, the older eraseblock is picked.
+ *
+ * Note, the @leb_ver field may overflow. Thus, if you have 2 versions A and B,
+ * then A > B if abs(A-B) < 0x7FFFFFFF, and A < B otherwise.
+ *
+ * There are 2 sorts of volumes in UBI: user volumes and internal volumes.
+ * Internal volumes are not seen from outside and are used for different
+ * internal UBI purposes. In this implementation there are only two internal
+ * volumes: the layout volume and the update volume. Internal volumes are the
+ * main mechanism of UBI extensions. For example, in future one may introduce a
+ * journal internal volume.
+ *
+ * The @compat field is only used for internal volumes and contains the degree
+ * of their compatibility. This field is always zero for user volumes. This
+ * field provides a mechanism to introduce UBI extensions and to be still
+ * compatible with older UBI binaries. For example, if someone introduced an
+ * journal internal volume in future, he would probably use %UBI_COMPAT_DELETE
+ * compatibility. And in this case, older UBI binaries, which know nothing
+ * about the journal volume, would just delete this and work perfectly fine.
+ * This is somewhat similar to what Ext2fs does when it is fed by an Ext3fs
+ * image - it just ignores the Ext3fs journal.
+ *
+ * The @data_crc field contains the CRC checksum of the contents of the logical
+ * eraseblock if this is a static volume. In case of dynamic volumes, it does
+ * not contain the CRC checksum as a rule. The only exception is when the
+ * logical eraseblock was moved by the wear-leveling unit, then the
+ * wear-leveling unit calculates the eraseblocks' CRC and stores it at
+ * @data_crc.
+ *
+ * The @data_size field is always used for static volumes because we want to
+ * know about how many bytes of data are stored in this eraseblock. For
+ * dynamic eraseblocks, this field usually contains zero. The only exception is
+ * when the logical eraseblock is moved to another physical eraseblock due to
+ * wear-leveling reasons. In this case, UBI calculates CRC checksum of the
+ * contents and uses both @data_crc and @data_size fields. In this case, the
+ * @data_size field contains the size of logical eraseblock of this volume
+ * (which may vary owing to @alignment).
+ *
+ * The @used_ebs field is used only for static volumes and indicates how many
+ * eraseblocks the data of the volume takes. For dynamic volumes this field is
+ * not used and always contains zero.
+ *
+ * The @data_pad is calculated when volumes are created using the alignment
+ * parameter. So, effectively, the @data_pad field reduces the size of logical
+ * eraseblocks of this volume. This is very handy when one uses block-oriented
+ * software (say, cramfs) on top of the UBI volume.
+ *
+ * The @ivol_data contains private data of internal volumes. This might be very
+ * handy to store data in the VID header, not in the eraseblock's contents. For
+ * example it may make life of simple boot-loaders easier. The @ivol_data field
+ * contains zeroes for user volumes.
