2016-11-17Remove unused ubiutils_print_text from ubi-utils commonDavid Oberhollenzer
The function ubiutils_print_text was previously used by ubinize to pretty-print parts of the help text. Since the help text has been moved to a man page, the function is no longer used/needed. Signed-off-by: David Oberhollenzer <david.oberhollenzer@sigma-star.at>

2016-11-17Change build system to autotoolsRichard Weinberger
This patch is largely based on Richards original RFC. The major differences to the RFC patch are: - Add missing sumtools & mtdpart targets - Fix name of mkfs.jffs2 target - Add missing subdir-objects option for non-recursive make - Move all automake options to configure.ac - Add manpages to install target - Make XATTR & LZO support configurable - Install binaries to sbin directory like in the old build system - Install flash_erase wrapper script - Add files missing from distribution target Signed-off-by: David Oberhollenzer <david.oberhollenzer@sigma-star.at> Signed-off-by: Richard Weinberger <richard@nod.at>

2014-11-04libmtd: don't ignore "region index" parameter in mtd_regioninfo()Brian Norris
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. Initial error report from Yang, when running "mtdinfo /dev/mtd0" on a Cavium 6100 board: root@CN61XX:~# mtdinfo /dev/mtd0 mtd0 Name: phys_mapped_flash Type: nor Eraseblock size: 65536 bytes, 64.0 KiB Amount of eraseblocks: 128 (8388608 bytes, 8.0 MiB) Minimum input/output unit size: 1 byte Sub-page size: 1 byte Additional erase regions: 0 Character device major/minor: 90:0 Bad blocks are allowed: false Device is writable: true libmtd: error!: MEMGETREGIONINFO ioctl failed for erase region 0 error 22 (Invalid argument) Eraseblock region 0: info is unavailable libmtd: error!: MEMGETREGIONINFO ioctl failed for erase region 1 error 22 (Invalid argument) Eraseblock region 1: info is unavailable Reported-by: Yang Wei <Wei.Yang@windriver.com> Signed-off-by: Brian Norris <computersforpeace@gmail.com>

2012-09-25ubiformat: fix failure on big partitions (>4Gio)Richard Genoud
The offset (which is 64bits when mtd-utils are not compile with WITHOUT_LARGEFILE) is calculated like that: offset = nb * size; But nb and size are int, so on 32bits platforms, there's a possible overflow. So, it should be replace with: offset = (off_t)nb * size; If WITHOUT_LARGEFILE is defined, there still be an overflow, but it's what we want, right ?

If the kernel doesn't know the max_beb_per1024 parameter in the attach ioctl, but the call still succeeded ubi_attach and ubi_attach_mtd will return 1 instead of 0.

2012-08-23ubiattach: introduce max_beb_per1024 in UBI_IOCATTRichard Genoud
The ioctl UBI_IOCATT has been extended with max_beb_per1024 parameter. This parameter is used for adjusting the "maximum expected number of bad blocks per 1024 blocks" for each mtd device. The number of physical erase blocks (PEB) that UBI will reserve for bad block handling is now: whole_flash_chipset__PEB_number * max_beb_per1024 / 1024 This means that for a 4096 PEB NAND device with 3 MTD partitions: mtd0: 512 PEB mtd1: 1536 PEB mtd2: 2048 PEB the commands: ubiattach -m 0 -d 0 -b 20 /dev/ubi_ctrl ubiattach -m 1 -d 1 -b 20 /dev/ubi_ctrl ubiattach -m 2 -d 2 -b 20 /dev/ubi_ctrl will attach mtdx to UBIx and reserve: 80 PEB for bad block handling on UBI0 80 PEB for bad block handling on UBI1 80 PEB for bad block handling on UBI2 => for the whole device, 240 PEB will be reserved for bad block handling. This may seems a waste of space, but as far as the bad blocks can appear every where on a flash device, in the worst case scenario they can all appear in one MTD partition. So the maximum number of expected erase blocks given by the NAND manufacturer should be reserve on each MTD partition.

When we have assigned non-consecutive device numbers to our MTD devices, then we run `mtdinfo --all', we get errors once mtdinfo tries to process the devices in the "hole". For instance, suppose that at boot time, we have one MTD (/dev/mtd0) then perform a sequence like the following: # modprobe mtdram # modprobe nandsim # rmmod mtdram Then at this point, we have should have devices 0 and 2 without 1. Then: # mtdinfo --all ... mtdinfo: error!: mtd1 does not correspond to any existing MTD device We add a check to first see if device is present, then continue to the next ID if it doesn't exist.

2011-09-19ubiformat: handle write errors correctlyArtem Bityutskiy
This issue was reported and analyzed by Anton Olofsson <anol.martinsson@gmail.com>: when ubiformat encounters a write error while flashing the UBI image (which may come from a file of from stdout), it correctly marks the faulty eraseblock as bad and skips it. However, it also incorrectly drops the data buffer which was supposed to be written, and reads next block of data. This patch fixes this issue - in case of a write error, we preserve the current data and write it to the next eraseblock, instead of dropping it.

2011-08-16mtdinfo: don't open NULL pointer when getting region_info with `-a'Brian Norris
This "fixes" a regression found in: commit 266061ebd5d72391f0a0e831b018e8fc7fea68a1 mtdinfo: add regioninfo/eraseblock map display On certain flash (NOR flash that have eraseblock region info), `mtdinfo -a' tries to open the MTD node file, for use with the ioctl MEMGETREGIONINFO; however, we didn't supply a device node path to `mtdinfo -a', so it's using NULL, resulting in errors like: mtdinfo: error!: couldn't open MTD dev: (null) error 14 (Bad address) For now, we can just skip dumping region_info with the `-a' flag. If we find a better way to do this (e.g., export via sysfs, find device nodes via automatic routines, etc.), then we can kill the workaround and this FIXME should be removed. The regression was first reported at: http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-mtd/2011-July/037232.html The result of recent changes is that we cannot get region_info for devices via the `--all' option.

2011-06-27rewrite build system to avoid recursionMike Frysinger
The ubi-utils/src/ subdir is tossed as it just complicates things for no real gain. The dictionary.h header is relocated to the ubi-utils/include/ since other headers in there need it. The top level clean is replaced with a `find -delete` on objects, so it might prune more than necessary, but many projects now do this sort of thing and no one complained there. A "mkdep" helper generates the actual rule, and the variables are used with "foreach" to expand these automatically. The tests subdir is updated only to reflect the ubi-utils source move. Otherwise, it is left untouched as making that non-recursive isn't really worth the effort. While we're gutting things, also through in kbuild style output while building to make things more legible.
