111ab0b26f UBI: Fastmap: Locking updates
a) Rename ubi->fm_sem to ubi->fm_eba_sem as this semaphore
protects EBA changes.
b) Turn ubi->fm_mutex into a rw semaphore. It will still serialize
fastmap writes but also ensures that ubi_wl_put_peb() is not
interrupted by a fastmap write. We use a rw semaphore to allow
ubi_wl_put_peb() still to be executed in parallel if no fastmap

9d54c8a33e UBI: R/O block driver on top of UBI volumes
This commit introduces read-only block device emulation on top of UBI volumes.

Given UBI takes care of wear leveling and bad block management it's possible
to add a thin layer to enable block device access to UBI volumes.
This allows to use a block-oriented filesystem on a flash device.

The UBI block devices are meant to be used in conjunction with any
regular, block-oriented file system (e.g. ext4), although it's primarily
targeted at read-only file systems, such as squashfs.

Block devices are created upon user request through new ioctls:
UBI_IOCVOLATTBLK to attach and UBI_IOCVOLDETBLK to detach.
Also, a new UBI module parameter is added 'ubi.block'. This parameter is
needed in order to attach a block device on boot-up time, allowing to
mount the rootfs on a ubiblock device.
For instance, you could have these kernel parameters:

  ubi.mtd=5 ubi.block=0,0 root=/dev/ubiblock0_0

Or, if you compile ubi as a module:

  $ modprobe ubi mtd=/dev/mtd5 block=/dev/ubi0_0

1557b9e1cb UBI: do not abort init when ubi.mtd devices cannot be found
The current ubi.mtd parsing logic will warn & continue on when attaching
the specified mtd device fails (for any reason).  It doesn't however skip
things when the specified mtd device can't be opened.

This scenario can be hit in a couple of different ways such as:
 - build NAND controller driver as a module
 - build UBI into the kernel
 - include ubi.mtd on the kernel command line
 - boot the system
 - MTD devices don't exist, so UBI init fails

This is problematic because failing init means the entire UBI layer is
unavailable until you reboot and modify the kernel command line.  If
we just warn and continue on, /dev/ubi_ctrl is available for userland
to add UBI volumes on the fly once it loads the NAND driver.

ba4087e956 UBI: use the whole MTD device size to get bad_peb_limit
On NAND flash devices, UBI reserves some physical erase blocks (PEB) for
bad block handling. Today, the number of reserved PEB can only be set as a
percentage of the total number of PEB in each MTD partition. For example, for a
NAND flash with 128KiB PEB, 2 MTD partition of 20MiB (mtd0) and 100MiB (mtd1)
and 2% reserved PEB:
 - the UBI device on mtd0 will have 2 PEB reserved
 - the UBI device on mtd1 will have 16 PEB reserved

The problem with this behaviour is that NAND flash manufacturers give a
minimum number of valid block (NVB) during the endurance life of the
device, e.g.:

Parameter             Symbol    Min    Max    Unit      Notes
--------------------------------------------------------------
Valid block number     NVB     1004    1024   Blocks     1

From this number we can deduce the maximum number of bad PEB that a device will
contain during its endurance life: a 128MiB NAND flash (1024 PEB) will not have
less than 20 bad blocks during the flash endurance life.

But the manufacturer doesn't tell where those bad block will appear. He doesn't
say either if they will be equally disposed on the whole device (and I'm pretty
sure they won't). So, according to the datasheets, we should reserve the
maximum number of bad PEB for each UBI device (worst case scenario: 20 bad
blocks appears on the smallest MTD partition).

So this patch make UBI use the whole MTD device size to calculate the maximum
bad expected eraseblocks.

The Kconfig option is in per1024 blocks, thus it can have a default value of 20
which is *very* common for NAND devices.

UBI expects to go bad.  Currently, it is initialized to a fixed percentage
of total PEBs in the UBI device (configurable via CONFIG_MTD_UBI_BEB_LIMIT).

The 'bad_peb_limit' is intended to be used for calculating the amount of PEBs
UBI needs to reserve for bad eraseblock handling.

0ca39d74de UBI: rename peb_buf1 to peb_buf
Now we have only one buffer so let's rename it to just 'peb_buf1'.

43b043e78b UBI: reduce memory consumption
Remove the pre-allocated 'peb_buf2' buffer because we do not really need it.
The only reason UBI has it is to check that the data were written correctly.
But we do not have to have 2 buffers for this and waste RAM - we can just
compare CRC checksums instead. This reduces UBI memory consumption.

8f461a7302 mtd: introduce mtd_can_have_bb helper
This patch introduces new 'mtd_can_have_bb()' helper function which checks
whether the flash can have bad eraseblocks. Then it changes all the
direct 'mtd->block_isbad' use cases with 'mtd_can_have_bb()'.

01a4110d2b UBI: fix oops in error path
This patch fixes an oops in the error path of 'ubi_attach_mtd_dev()'. If
anything after 'uif_init()' fails, we get an oops in 'cancel_pending()'. The
reason is that 'uif_close()' drops the last reference count for 'ubi->dev' and
whole 'struct ubi_device' is freed. And then
'ubi_wl_close()'->'cancel_pending()' tries to access the 'ubi' pointer and
problems begin.

Note, in 'ubi_detach_mtd_dev()' function we get a device reference to
work-around this issue. Do the same in the error path of
'ubi_attach_mtd_dev()'.

2a734bb8d5 UBI: use debugfs for the extra checks knobs
This patch introduces debugfs support to UBI. All the UBI stuff is kept in the
"ubi" debugfs directory, which contains per-UBI device "ubi/ubiX"
sub-directories, containing debugging files. This file also creates
"ubi/ubiX/chk_gen" and "ubi/ubiX/chk_io" knobs for switching general and I/O
extra checks on and off. And it removes the 'debug_chks' UBI module parameters.

28237e4583 UBI: make tests modes dynamic
Similarly to the debugging checks and message, make the test modes
be dynamically selected via the "debug_tsts" module parameter or
via the "/sys/module/ubi/parameters/debug_tsts" sysfs file. This
is consistent with UBIFS as well.

And now, since all the Kconfig knobs became dynamic, we can remove
the Kconfig.debug file completely.

6edb979395 UBI: kill debugging buffer
This patch kills the 'ubi->dbg_peb_buf' debugging buffer and the
associated mutex, because all users of this buffer are now gone.
We are killing this buffer because we are going to switch to
dynamic debugging control, just like in UBIFS, which means that
CONFIG_MTD_UBI_DEBUG_PARANOID will be removed. In this case we'd
end up always allocating 'ubi->dbg_peb_buf', which is rather large
(128KiB or more), and this would be wasteful. Thus, we are just
killing it.
