The libmtd library tries to obtain the available OOB size via the sysfs
with a fallback to the ECCGETLAYOUT ioctl. For some devices (e.g. plat-ram),
the fallback path is always taken and prints an error message to stderr
since the ioctl fails.
This patch fixes the fallback path by suppressing the error message if
errno is set to EOPNOTSUPP (i.e. the device simply doesn't support that).
Fixes: a10353584f93 ("libmtd: Add support to access OOB available size")

Now that we have per-UBI volume flags (for instance for skipping CRC
check when opening it) from the Linux header, let's add it to the
ubi_mkvol_request in libubi and assign the flags to ubi_mkvol_req from
the Linux header from ubi_mkvol.

This reverts commit dede98ffb706676309488d7cc660f569548d5930.
The original commit tried to fix a descrepancy between the implementation
and the documentation by making the implementation comply.
When making the change, it was overlooked, that ubinfo and ubirename were
written against the implementation instead of the behaviour specified by
the documentation. So were further internal functions like
ubi_get_vol_info1_nm which further breaks ubirmvol.
A report with an outline of a resulting problem can be read on
the mailing list:
http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-mtd/2018-June/081562.html
From the report:
steps to reproduce: have mtd-utils 2.0.1 or 2.0.2
0. make a bunch of ubi volumes in sequential order
ubimkvol /dev/ubi0 -s 64KiB -N test1

ubimkvol /dev/ubi0 -s 64KiB -N test3
ubimkvol /dev/ubi0 -s 64KiB -N test4
..
1. delete the test1 volume, making a hole in the volume table
ubirmvol /dev/ubi0 -N test1
2. try an affected tool (i.e. "ubirmvol /dev/ubi0 -N test4" )

This patch exposes OOB available size to user. Then user can use
OOB free area according to OOB available size.
Steps to get OOB available size:
First, access /sys/class/mtd/mtdX/oobavail. If not exist, then
try to get ecc layout by ioctl "ECCGETLAYOUT". If none of them
work, set OOB available size to 0.

If the specified UBI device or volume does not exist, the function
is supposed to set errno to ENODEV.
This patch adds a check to ubi_get_vol_info1 to change the errno
to ENODEV if vol_get_major cannot access the underlying sysfs file,
so the function propperly returns that the device or volume does
not exist, instead of failing with errno set to ENOENT.

The documentation of libmtd_open says, if it returns NULL and errno is
zero, MTD is not present. However, the current version always returns
a libmtd_t object. The function internally checks, if it can access the
MTD sysfs files and, if not, sets a flag to use the procfs fallback.
This patch adds an additional check to libmtd_open, to test if the
MTD procfs file can be read and fails with errno cleared if it does
not exist.
Furhtermore, mtd_get_info is documented to fail with errno set to ENODEV
if MTD is not present. First of all, this was broken in the original
version. It was implemented to specification for the sysfs code path,
but if MTD is not present, that won't be executed, because of the flag
set by libmtd_open. This makes the check not only redundant, but masks
an actual error (the sysfs paths suddenly not being readable anymore).
The legacy path that was used if the sysfs files are not avaible fails
with ENOENT if it cannot read the procfs file. With the above changes
in addition, we don't have a libmtd_t object if neither sysfs nor
procfs is readable, so this error status no longer makes sense.
This patch removes the documentation on the ENODEV errno, and
makes sure that mtd_get_info always returns with apropriate errno
on failure.

These days we have devtmpfs. New devices will automatically created on
the kernel side and user space has no longer to wait for udev.
As udev has a hard dependency on devtmpfs we can depend on it too.
People which don't use udev nor plain devtmpfs are anyways on their own.

Historically, the mtd-utils and ubi-utils were seperate packages. The
ubi-utils were at some point merged into the mtd-utils. They first
appeared in the release tar-ball in version 1.1.0 in their own
sub-hirarchy with their own buildsystem, readme, documentation, etc.
A lot of the duplicated stuff got centralized/removed over time.
This patch further cleans up the directory hirarchy duplication by
moving common libraries from the ubi-utils/ into the central lib/
and include/ directories in the top directory of the mtd-utils package.
This includes:
- libuib.a & libubigen.a used by the ubi utilities
- libscan.a currently only used by ubiformat
- libiniparser.a used by ubinize

This patch moves the remaining 3 functions from ubiutils-common.{c,h}
into libmtd common.{c,h}.
The functions are only generic utility functions that other mtd-utils
programs may also find usefull and every program that uses libubi links
against libmtd anyway so there is no real reason for keeping around a
seperate ubiutils-common with only generic helper functions.

The function _tries_ to support short reads but doesn't adjust the
pointer into the buffer. If a short read happens, we scrambles the
flash contents. Interrupted reads aren't handled. Short or
interrupted writes aren't handled at all. Either a write succeeds
writing the entire buffer or the function gives up.
During an attempt at fixing it, it was discovered, that no mtd-utils
program uses this function. Furthermore, its highly specific nature
makes it more of a "feature looking for use case".

This patch fixes the return status of the mtd_torture function
in libmtd.
The torture test function is currently only used by the ubiformat

marked bad if the function returns an error status). However, the
way the function was written, it ALWAYS returns an error value
regardless of whether it failed or not.

ioctl(MEMGETREGIONINFO) has one input parameter (regionindex) and three
output parameters (info about the erase region). There are two problems
in mtdinfo/libmtd here:
1. mtdinfo.c doesn't initialize its region_info_user struct, instead
passing uninitialized data to mtd_regioninfo()
2. mtd_regioninfo() fails to utilize the 'regidx' parameter to fill out
the regionindex parameter properly, so the garbage from mtdinfo.c is
propagated to the ioctl()
This means that mtdinfo will continuously probe the same (possibly
out-of-range) erase region, instead of looping over the valid regions.
Let's fix this in the mtd_regioninfo() helper, and at the same time,
let's zero out the mtdinfo.c buffer, as an additional precaution to keep
from using uninitialized data.

On legacy systems, if "/proc/mtd" doesn't exist or gives a read error,
mtd_dev_present returns -1 (since it calls legacy_dev_present), contrary

This causes checks like

to give false positives. Fix this by comparing the return value to 1.

ioctl(MEMWRITE) is implemented with memdup_user(), and so it allocates

libmtd: error!: MEMWRITE ioctl failed for eraseblock 12 (mtd0)

This error can be mitigated for now by only using ioctl(MEMWRITE) when we
need to write OOB data, since we can only do this in small transactions
anyway. Then, data-only transactions (like those originating from
ubiformat) can be carried out with write() calls.
This issue can also be solved within the kernel ioctl(), but either way,
this patch is still useful, since write() is more straightforward (and
efficient?) than ioctl() for data-only writes.

MEMWRITE is a recently introduced write interface for MTD; however, it

don't have a mtd->write_oob interface (and thus don't support MEMWRITE):

With the addition of the the new ioctl(MEMWRITE), we can use the
kernel's internal OOB autoplacement option. It's a cleaner interface and
avoids too much duplication of coding effort.
This patch moves any legacy code (using MEMGETOOBSEL) into a legacy
function in libmtd.c. It's not exactly a "pre-2.6.30" feature, so I'm not
moving it to libmtd_legacy.c.
Now, autoplacement features are only activated if we call mtd_write with
mode == MTD_OPS_AUTO_OOB. This should fix some discrepancies for
nandwrite, where we weren't handling OOB consistently (i.e., we had
different functionality when the kernel did/didn't support MEMWRITE).
But that also means that we now default to using MTD_OPS_PLACE_OOB
instead of AUTO layout. To re-enable autoplacement, we can re-implement
the `--autoplace' option that had previously rotted.
This patch also cleans up a need for an extra OOB buffer in nandwrite.
This has been tested a little in nandsim as well as on SLC NAND flash.

`mtd_write()' now will first attempt to use MEMWRITE. Then, if that
doesn't exist, it will attempt to fall back to old methods for writing
OOB and/or page data.

To support the MEMWRITE ioctl, we will need a different sort of libmtd
interface for writing to flash. We will expand mtd_write to include more
functionality; for now, we just change the function definition and
description as we begin to add the actual functionality.
