/*
* UBI device creation (the same as MTD device attachment)
* ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
*
* MTD devices may be attached using %UBI_IOCATT ioctl command of the UBI
* control device. The caller has to properly fill and pass
* &struct ubi_attach_req object - UBI will attach the MTD device specified in
* the request and return the newly created UBI device number as the ioctl
* return value.
*
* UBI device deletion (the same as MTD device detachment)
* ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
*
* An UBI device maybe deleted with %UBI_IOCDET ioctl command of the UBI
* control device.
*
* UBI volume creation
* ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
*
* UBI volumes are created via the %UBI_IOCMKVOL ioctl command of UBI character
* device. A &struct ubi_mkvol_req object has to be properly filled and a
* pointer to it has to be passed to the ioctl.
*
* UBI volume deletion
* ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
*
* To delete a volume, the %UBI_IOCRMVOL ioctl command of the UBI character
* device should be used. A pointer to the 32-bit volume ID hast to be passed
* to the ioctl.
*
* UBI volume re-size
* ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
*
* To re-size a volume, the %UBI_IOCRSVOL ioctl command of the UBI character
* device should be used. A &struct ubi_rsvol_req object has to be properly
* filled and a pointer to it has to be passed to the ioctl.
*
* UBI volumes re-name
* ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
*
* To re-name several volumes atomically at one go, the %UBI_IOCRNVOL command
* of the UBI character device should be used. A &struct ubi_rnvol_req object
* has to be properly filled and a pointer to it has to be passed to the ioctl.
*
* UBI volume update
* ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
*
* Volume update should be done via the %UBI_IOCVOLUP ioctl command of the
* corresponding UBI volume character device. A pointer to a 64-bit update
* size should be passed to the ioctl. After this, UBI expects user to write
* this number of bytes to the volume character device. The update is finished
* when the claimed number of bytes is passed. So, the volume update sequence
* is something like:
*
* fd = open("/dev/my_volume");
* ioctl(fd, UBI_IOCVOLUP, &image_size);
* write(fd, buf, image_size);
* close(fd);
*
* Logical eraseblock erase
* ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
*
* To erase a logical eraseblock, the %UBI_IOCEBER ioctl command of the
* corresponding UBI volume character device should be used. This command
* unmaps the requested logical eraseblock, makes sure the corresponding
* physical eraseblock is successfully erased, and returns.
*
* Atomic logical eraseblock change
* ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
*
* Atomic logical eraseblock change operation is called using the %UBI_IOCEBCH
* ioctl command of the corresponding UBI volume character device. A pointer to
* a &struct ubi_leb_change_req object has to be passed to the ioctl. Then the
* user is expected to write the requested amount of bytes (similarly to what
* should be done in case of the "volume update" ioctl).
*
* Logical eraseblock map
* ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
*
* To map a logical eraseblock to a physical eraseblock, the %UBI_IOCEBMAP
* ioctl command should be used. A pointer to a &struct ubi_map_req object is
* expected to be passed. The ioctl maps the requested logical eraseblock to
* a physical eraseblock and returns. Only non-mapped logical eraseblocks can
* be mapped. If the logical eraseblock specified in the request is already
* mapped to a physical eraseblock, the ioctl fails and returns error.
*
* Logical eraseblock unmap
* ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
*
* To unmap a logical eraseblock to a physical eraseblock, the %UBI_IOCEBUNMAP
* ioctl command should be used. The ioctl unmaps the logical eraseblocks,
* schedules corresponding physical eraseblock for erasure, and returns. Unlike
* the "LEB erase" command, it does not wait for the physical eraseblock being
* erased. Note, the side effect of this is that if an unclean reboot happens
* after the unmap ioctl returns, you may find the LEB mapped again to the same
* physical eraseblock after the UBI is run again.
*
* Check if logical eraseblock is mapped
* ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
*
* To check if a logical eraseblock is mapped to a physical eraseblock, the
* %UBI_IOCEBISMAP ioctl command should be used. It returns %0 if the LEB is
* not mapped, and %1 if it is mapped.
*
* Set an UBI volume property
* ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
*
* To set an UBI volume property the %UBI_IOCSETPROP ioctl command should be
* used. A pointer to a &struct ubi_set_vol_prop_req object is expected to be
* passed. The object describes which property should be set, and to which value
* it should be set.
*
* Block devices on UBI volumes
* ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
*
* To create a R/O block device on top of an UBI volume the %UBI_IOCVOLCRBLK
* should be used. A pointer to a &struct ubi_blkcreate_req object is expected
* to be passed, which is not used and reserved for future usage.
*
* Conversely, to remove a block device the %UBI_IOCVOLRMBLK should be used,
* which takes no arguments.

* @max_beb_per1024: maximum expected number of bad PEB per 1024 PEBs
* @padding: reserved for future, not used, has to be zeroed
*
* This data structure is used to specify MTD device UBI has to attach and the
* parameters it has to use. The number which should be assigned to the new UBI
* device is passed in @ubi_num. UBI may automatically assign the number if
* @UBI_DEV_NUM_AUTO is passed. In this case, the device number is returned in
* @ubi_num.
*
* Most applications should pass %0 in @vid_hdr_offset to make UBI use default
* offset of the VID header within physical eraseblocks. The default offset is
* the next min. I/O unit after the EC header. For example, it will be offset
* 512 in case of a 512 bytes page NAND flash with no sub-page support. Or
* it will be 512 in case of a 2KiB page NAND flash with 4 512-byte sub-pages.
*
* But in rare cases, if this optimizes things, the VID header may be placed to
* a different offset. For example, the boot-loader might do things faster if
* the VID header sits at the end of the first 2KiB NAND page with 4 sub-pages.
* As the boot-loader would not normally need to read EC headers (unless it
* needs UBI in RW mode), it might be faster to calculate ECC. This is weird
* example, but it real-life example. So, in this example, @vid_hdr_offer would
* be 2KiB-64 bytes = 1984. Note, that this position is not even 512-bytes
* aligned, which is OK, as UBI is clever enough to realize this is 4th
* sub-page of the first page and add needed padding.
*
* The @max_beb_per1024 is the maximum amount of bad PEBs UBI expects on the
* UBI device per 1024 eraseblocks. This value is often given in an other form
* in the NAND datasheet (min NVB i.e. minimal number of valid blocks). The
* maximum expected bad eraseblocks per 1024 is then:
* 1024 * (1 - MinNVB / MaxNVB)
* Which gives 20 for most NAND devices. This limit is used in order to derive
* amount of eraseblock UBI reserves for handling new bad blocks. If the device
* has more bad eraseblocks than this limit, UBI does not reserve any physical
* eraseblocks for new bad eraseblocks, but attempts to use available
* eraseblocks (if any). The accepted range is 0-768. If 0 is given, the
* default kernel value of %CONFIG_MTD_UBI_BEB_LIMIT will be used.
