The global sequence counter is incremented each time + * UBI writes a new VID header to the flash, i.e. when it maps a logical + * eraseblock to a new physical eraseblock. The global sequence counter is an + * unsigned 64-bit integer and we assume it never overflows. The @sqnum + * (sequence number) is used to distinguish between older and newer versions of + * logical eraseblocks. + * + * There are 2 situations when there may be more then one physical eraseblock + * corresponding to the same logical eraseblock, i.e., having the same @vol_id + * and @lnum values in the volume identifier header. Suppose we have a logical + * eraseblock L and it is mapped to the physical eraseblock P. + * + * 1. Because UBI may erase physical eraseblocks asynchronously, the following + * situation is possible: L is asynchronously erased, so P is scheduled for + * erasure, then L is written to,i.e. mapped to another physical eraseblock P1, + * so P1 is written to, then an unclean reboot happens. Result - there are 2 + * physical eraseblocks P and P1 corresponding to the same logical eraseblock + * L. But P1 has greater sequence number, so UBI picks P1 when it attaches the + * flash. + * + * 2. From time to time UBI moves logical eraseblocks to other physical + * eraseblocks for wear-leveling reasons. If, for example, UBI moves L from P + * to P1, and an unclean reboot happens before P is physically erased, there + * are two physical eraseblocks P and P1 corresponding to L and UBI has to + * select one of them when the flash is attached. The @sqnum field says which + * PEB is the original (obviously P will have lower @sqnum) and the copy. But + * it is not enough to select the physical eraseblock with the higher sequence + * number, because the unclean reboot could have happen in the middle of the + * copying process, so the data in P is corrupted. It is also not enough to + * just select the physical eraseblock with lower sequence number, because the + * data there may be old (consider a case if more data was added to P1 after + * the copying). Moreover, the unclean reboot may happen when the erasure of P + * was just started, so it result in unstable P, which is "mostly" OK, but + * still has unstable bits. + * + * UBI uses the @copy_flag field to indicate that this logical eraseblock is a + * copy. UBI also calculates data CRC when the data is moved and stores it at + * the @data_crc field of the copy (P1). So when UBI needs to pick one physical + * eraseblock of two (P or P1), the @copy_flag of the newer one (P1) is + * examined. If it is cleared, the situation* is simple and the newer one is + * picked. If it is set, the data CRC of the copy (P1) is examined. If the CRC + * checksum is correct, this physical eraseblock is selected (P1). Otherwise + * the older one (P) is selected. + * + * Note, there is an obsolete @leb_ver field which was used instead of @sqnum + * in the past. But it is not used anymore and we keep it in order to be able + * to deal with old UBI images. It will be removed at some point. + * + * There are 2 sorts of volumes in UBI: user volumes and internal volumes. + * Internal volumes are not seen from outside and are used for various internal + * UBI purposes. In this implementation there is only one internal volume - the + * layout volume. Internal volumes are the main mechanism of UBI extensions. + * For example, in future one may introduce a journal internal volume. Internal + * volumes have their own reserved range of IDs. + * + * The @compat field is only used for internal volumes and contains the "degree + * of their compatibility". It is always zero for user volumes. This field + * provides a mechanism to introduce UBI extensions and to be still compatible + * with older UBI binaries. For example, if someone introduced a journal in + * future, he would probably use %UBI_COMPAT_DELETE compatibility for the + * journal volume. And in this case, older UBI binaries, which know nothing + * about the journal volume, would just delete this volume and work perfectly + * fine. This is similar to what Ext2fs does when it is fed by an Ext3fs image + * - it just ignores the Ext3fs journal. + * + * The @data_crc field contains the CRC checksum of the contents of the logical + * eraseblock if this is a static volume. In case of dynamic volumes, it does + * not contain the CRC checksum as a rule. The only exception is when the + * data of the physical eraseblock was moved by the wear-leveling unit, then + * the wear-leveling unit calculates the data CRC and stores it in the + * @data_crc field. And of course, the @copy_flag is %in this case. + * + * The @data_size field is used only for static volumes because UBI has to know + * how many bytes of data are stored in this eraseblock. For dynamic volumes, + * this field usually contains zero. The only exception is when the data of the + * physical eraseblock was moved to another physical eraseblock for + * wear-leveling reasons. In this case, UBI calculates CRC checksum of the + * contents and uses both @data_crc and @data_size fields. In this case, the + * @data_size field contains data size. + * + * The @used_ebs field is used only for static volumes and indicates how many + * eraseblocks the data of the volume takes. For dynamic volumes this field is + * not used and always contains zero. + * + * The @data_pad is calculated when volumes are created using the alignment + * parameter.
