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].

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].

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.

the name may be more reliable if device partitioning is dynamic or for

In 54d68799, mtd->eb_cnt was enforced to be '1' if MTD_NO_ERASE is set.
This was done with the aim of preventing divisions by zero.
However, even if MTD_NO_ERASE is set, mtd->eb_size (eraseblock size) can
still be set to a non-zero value which would not cause a division by
zero.
Instead, enforcing an eraseblock count of '1' here even leads to
inconsistent eraseblock counting in mtd-utils and lets for example a
'flash_erase' on an mtdnand device fail:
| # flash_erase /dev/mtd0 0 0
| Erasing 32768 Kibyte @ 0 -- 0 % complete libmtd: error!: bad eraseblock number 255, mtd0 has 1 eraseblocks
| flash_erase: error!: /dev/mtd0: MTD Erase entire chip failureTrying one by one each sector.
| error 22 (Invalid argument)
| Erasing 128 Kibyte @ 0 -- 0 % complete libmtd: error!: bad eraseblock number 1, mtd0 has 1 eraseblocks
| flash_erase: error!: /dev/mtd0: MTD get bad block failed
| error 22 (Invalid argument)
Also mtdinfo would look inconsistent (eraseblock size vs amount):
| # mtdinfo /dev/mtd0
| mtd0
| Name: mtdram test device
| Type: ram
| Eraseblock size: 131072 bytes, 128.0 KiB
| Amount of eraseblocks: 1 (33554432 bytes, 32.0 MiB)
| Minimum input/output unit size: 1 byte
| Sub-page size: 1 byte
| Character device major/minor: 90:0
| Bad blocks are allowed: false
| Device is writable: true
Fix this by enforcing mtd->eb_cnt to be '1' only when mtd->eb_size is
actually zero and would lead to a division by zero otherwise.

The function reads file data into a buffer and then checks if we
actually are at the end-of-file by trying to read one more byte.
For whatever reason, the code uses an int instead of a char. It's
not pretty but works. But again, this is something that every
static analysis tool barks at.
Further more, the error messages are inverted. "We aren't at EOF yet"
is printed on failure and something like "read error %m" is printed
on success.
This patch fixes all of the above.

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).

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" )

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.

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

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".

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.
