34653fd8c4 ubi: fastmap: Check each mapping only once
Maintain a bitmap to keep track of which LEB->PEB mapping
was checked already.
That way we have to read back VID headers only once.

3291b52f9f UBI: introduce the VID buffer concept
Currently, all VID headers are allocated and freed using the
ubi_zalloc_vid_hdr() and ubi_free_vid_hdr() function. These functions
make sure to align allocation on ubi->vid_hdr_alsize and adjust the
vid_hdr pointer to match the ubi->vid_hdr_shift requirements.
This works fine, but is a bit convoluted.
Moreover, the future introduction of LEB consolidation (needed to support
MLC/TLC NANDs) will allows a VID buffer to contain more than one VID
header.

Hence the creation of a ubi_vid_io_buf struct to attach extra information
to the VID header.

We currently only store the actual pointer of the underlying buffer, but
will soon add the number of VID headers contained in the buffer.

799dca34ac UBI: hide EBA internals
Create a private ubi_eba_table struct to hide EBA internals and provide
helpers to allocate, destroy, copy and assing an EBA table to a volume.

Now that external EBA users are using helpers to query/modify the EBA
state we can safely change the internal representation, which will be
needed to support the LEB consolidation concept.

7b6b749b12 UBI: move the global ech and vidh variables into struct ubi_attach_info
Even if it works fine with those global variables, attaching the
temporary ech and vidh objects used during UBI scan to the
ubi_attach_info object sounds like a more future-proof option.

For example, attaching several UBI devices in parallel is prevented by
this use of global variable. And also because global variables should
be avoided in general.

74f2c6e9a4 ubi: Be more paranoid while seaching for the most recent Fastmap
Since PEB erasure is asynchornous it can happen that there is
more than one Fastmap on the MTD. This is fine because the attach logic
will pick the Fastmap data structure with the highest sequence number.

On a not so well configured MTD stack spurious ECC errors are common.
Causes can be different, bad hardware, wrong operating modes, etc...
If the most current Fastmap renders bad due to ECC errors UBI might
pick an older Fastmap to attach from.
While this can only happen on an anyway broken setup it will show
completely different sympthoms and makes finding the root cause much
more difficult.
So, be debug friendly and fall back to scanning mode of we're facing
an ECC error while scanning for Fastmap.

1900149c83 UBI: Fix static volume checks when Fastmap is used

UBI checks static volumes for data consistency and reads the
whole volume upon first open. If the volume is found erroneous
users of UBI cannot read from it, but another volume update is
possible to fix it. The check is performed by running
ubi_eba_read_leb() on every allocated LEB of the volume.
For static volumes ubi_eba_read_leb() computes the checksum of all
data stored in a LEB. To verify the computed checksum it has to read
the LEB's volume header which stores the original checksum.
If the volume header is not found UBI treats this as fatal internal
error and switches to RO mode. If the UBI device was attached via a
full scan the assumption is correct, the volume header has to be
present as it had to be there while scanning to get known as mapped.
If the attach operation happened via Fastmap the assumption is no
longer correct. When attaching via Fastmap UBI learns the mapping
table from Fastmap's snapshot of the system state and not via a full
scan. It can happen that a LEB got unmapped after a Fastmap was
written to the flash. Then UBI can learn the LEB still as mapped and
accessing it returns only 0xFF bytes. As UBI is not a FTL it is
allowed to have mappings to empty PEBs, it assumes that the layer
above takes care of LEB accounting and referencing.
UBIFS does so using the LEB property tree (LPT).
For static volumes UBI blindly assumes that all LEBs are present and
therefore special actions have to be taken.

The described situation can happen when updating a static volume is
interrupted, either by a user or a power cut.
The volume update code first unmaps all LEBs of a volume and then
writes LEB by LEB. If the sequence of operations is interrupted UBI
detects this either by the absence of LEBs, no volume header present
at scan time, or corrupted payload, detected via checksum.
In the Fastmap case the former method won't trigger as no scan
happened and UBI automatically thinks all LEBs are present.
Only by reading data from a LEB it detects that the volume header is
missing and incorrectly treats this as fatal error.
To deal with the situation ubi_eba_read_leb() from now on checks
whether we attached via Fastmap and handles the absence of a
volume header like a data corruption error.
This way interrupted static volume updates will correctly get detected
also when Fastmap is used.

ubi_wl_get_peb() has two problems, it reads the pool
size and usage counters without any protection.
While reading one value would be perfectly fine it reads multiple

pool handling.
Furthermore ubi_update_fastmap() is called without wl_lock held,
before incrementing the used counter it needs to be checked again.
It could happen that another thread consumed all PEBs from the
pool and the counter goes beyond ->size.

In order to have a way of distinguishing an invalid ioctl from a
not supported (but otherwise valid) ioctl, this commit changes the
return value of the ioctl stubs from ENOTTY to ENOSYS.

This will be useful to report more accurate error messages from
userspace tools.

4d283ee251 UBI: block: do not use term "attach"
We already use term attach/detach for UBI->MTD relations, let's not use this
for UBI->ubiblock relations to avoid confusion. Just use 'create' and 'remove'
instead. E.g., "create a R/O block device on top of a UBI volume".

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

Artem: amend commentaries and massage the patch a little bit.

8beeb3bb9d UBI: introduce new bad PEB limit
Introduce 'ubi->bad_peb_limit', which specifies an upper limit of PEBs
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.

Artem: minor amendments.

62f384552b UBI: modify ubi_wl_flush function to clear work queue for a lnum
This patch modifies ubi_wl_flush to force the erasure of
particular volume id / logical eraseblock number pairs. Previous functionality
is preserved when passing UBI_ALL for both values. The locations where ubi_wl_flush
were called are appropriately changed: ubi_leb_erase only flushes for the
erased LEB, and ubi_create_volume forces only flushing for its volume id.
External code can call this new feature via the new function ubi_flush() added
to kapi.c, which simply passes through to ubi_wl_flush().

This was tested by disabling the call to do_work in ubi thread, which results
in the work queue remaining unless explicitly called to remove. UBIFS was
changed to call ubifs_leb_change 50 times for four different LEBs. Then the
new function was called to clear the queue: passing wrong volume ids / lnum,
correct ones, and finally UBI_ALL for both to ensure it was finally all
cleard. The work queue was dumped each time and the selective removal
of the particular LEB numbers was observed. Extra checks were enabled and
ubifs's integck was also run. Finally, the drive was repeatedly filled and
emptied to ensure that the queue was cleared normally.

Artem: amended the patch.

d36e59e69b UBI: add lnum and vol_id to struct ubi_work
This is part of a multipart patch to allow UBI to force the erasure of
particular logical eraseblock numbers. In this patch, the volume id and LEB
number are added to ubi_work data structure, and both are also passed as a
parameter to schedule erase to set it appropriately. Whenever ubi_wl_put_peb
is called, the lnum is also passed to be forwarded to schedule erase. Later,
a new ubi_sync_lnum will be added to execute immediately all work related to
that lnum.

This was tested by outputting the vol_id and lnum during the schedule of
erasure. The ubi thread was disabled and two ubifs drives on separate
partitions repeated changed a small number of LEBs. The ubi module was readded,
and all the erased LEBs, corresponding to the volumes, were added to the
schedule erase queue.

Artem: minor tweaks

6dd3bc7e60 UBI: add volume id struct ubi_ainf_peb
This patch adds the volume id to struct ubi_ainf_peb when scanning the LEBs at
startup. PEBs now added to the erase queue will know their original LEB number
and volume id, if available, and will be -1 otherwise (for instance, if the VID
header is unreadable).

This was tested by creating an ubi device with 3 volumes and disabiling the
ubi_thread's do_work functionality. The different ubi volumes were formatted
to ubifs and had files created and erased.  The ubi modules was reloaded and
the list of LEB's added to the erased list was outputted, confirming the
volume ids and LEB numbers were appropriate.
