commit 5d3805af279c93ef49a64701f35254676d709622 upstream.

If "seen_pebs = init_seen(ubi);" fails then "seen_pebs" is an error pointer
and we try to kfree() it which results in an Oops.

This patch re-arranges the error handling so now it only frees things
which have been allocated successfully.

commit ef5aafb6e4e9942a28cd300bdcda21ce6cbaf045 upstream.

set_seen() sets the bit corresponding to the PEB number in the bitmap,
so when self_check_seen() wants to find PEBs that haven't been seen we
have to print the PEBs that have their bit cleared, not the ones which
have it set.

<title>ubi: Do not drop UBI device reference before using</title>

[ Upstream commit e542087701f09418702673631a908429feb3eae0 ]

The UBI device reference is dropped but then the device is used as a
parameter of ubi_err. The bug is introduced in changing ubi_err's
behavior. The old ubi_err does not require a UBI device as its first
parameter, but the new one does.

commit 781932375ffc6411713ee0926ccae8596ed0261c upstream.

Fastmap cannot track the LEB unmap operation, therefore it can
happen that after an interrupted erasure the mapping still looks
good from Fastmap's point of view, while reading from the PEB will
cause an ECC error and confuses the upper layer.

Instead of teaching users of UBI how to deal with that, we read back
the VID header and check for errors. If the PEB is empty or shows ECC
errors we fixup the mapping and schedule the PEB for erasure.

commit 6e7d80161066c99d12580d1b985cb1408bb58cf1 upstream.

Ben Hutchings pointed out that 29b7a6fa1ec0 ("ubi: fastmap: Don't flush
fastmap work on detach") does not really fix the problem, it just
reduces the risk to hit the race window where fastmap work races against
free()'ing ubi-&gt;volumes[].

The correct approach is making sure that no more fastmap work is in
progress before we free ubi data structures.
So we cancel fastmap work right after the ubi background thread is
stopped.
By setting ubi-&gt;thread_enabled to zero we make sure that no further work
tries to wake the thread.

commit b5094b7f135be34630e3ea8a98fa215715d0f29d upstream.

While UBI and UBIFS seem to work at first sight with MLC NAND, you will
most likely lose all your data upon a power-cut or due to read/write
disturb.
In order to protect users from bad surprises, refuse to attach to MLC
NAND.

commit 78a8dfbabbece22bee58ac4cb26cab10e7a19c5d upstream.

When opening a device with write access, ubiblock_open returns an error
code. Currently, this error code is -EPERM, but this is not the right
value.

The open function for other block devices returns -EROFS when opening
read-only devices with FMODE_WRITE set. When used with dm-verity, the
veritysetup userspace tool is expecting EROFS, and refuses to use the
ubiblock device.

Use -EROFS for ubiblock as well. As a result, veritysetup accepts the
ubiblock device as valid.
