[Artem: re-worked the patch: made it release resources when the module is unloaded, made it do module referencing, made it really independent on UBI, tested it with the UBI test-suite which can be found in ubi-2.6.git/tests/ubi-tests, re-named most of the funcs/variables to get rid of the "ubi" word and make names consistent.] Signed-off-by: Dmitry Pervushin <dpervushin@embeddedalley.com> Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>

UBI is a software layer above MTD layer which admits of LVM-like
|
|
logical volumes on top of MTD devices, hides some complexities of
|
|
flash chips like wear and bad blocks and provides some other useful
|
|
capabilities. Please, consult the MTD web site for more details
|
|
(www.linux-mtd.infradead.org).

help
|
|
This parameter defines the maximum difference between the highest
|
|
erase counter value and the lowest erase counter value of eraseblocks
|
|
of UBI devices. When this threshold is exceeded, UBI starts performing
|
|
wear leveling by means of moving data from eraseblock with low erase
|
|
counter to eraseblocks with high erase counter.
|
|
|
|
The default value should be OK for SLC NAND flashes, NOR flashes and
|
|
other flashes which have eraseblock life-cycle 100000 or more.
|
|
However, in case of MLC NAND flashes which typically have eraseblock
|
|
life-cycle less then 10000, the threshold should be lessened (e.g.,
|
|
to 128 or 256, although it does not have to be power of 2).

help
|
|
If the MTD device admits of bad eraseblocks (e.g. NAND flash), UBI
|
|
reserves some amount of physical eraseblocks to handle new bad
|
|
eraseblocks. For example, if a flash physical eraseblock becomes bad,
|
|
UBI uses these reserved physical eraseblocks to relocate the bad one.
|
|
This option specifies how many physical eraseblocks will be reserved
|
|
for bad eraseblock handling (percents of total number of good flash
|
|
eraseblocks). If the underlying flash does not admit of bad
|
|
eraseblocks (e.g. NOR flash), this value is ignored and nothing is
|
|
reserved. Leave the default value if unsure.

help
|
|
This option enables gluebi - an additional driver which emulates MTD
|
|
devices on top of UBI volumes: for each UBI volumes an MTD device is
|
|
created, and all I/O to this MTD device is redirected to the UBI
|
|
volume. This is handy to make MTD-oriented software (like JFFS2)
|
|
work on top of UBI. Do not enable this unless you use legacy
|
|
software.
