UBI: Add initial support for scatter gather 2015-01-28T15:04:26+00:00 Richard Weinberger richard@nod.at 2015-01-10T21:52:13+00:00 9ff08979e17423f0f691c1d76f35dfec72a5e459 Adds a new set of functions to deal with scatter gather. ubi_eba_read_leb_sg() will read from a LEB into a scatter gather list. The new data structure struct ubi_sgl will be used within UBI to hold the scatter gather list itself and metadata to have a cursor within the list.

Meta data in terms of UBI volumes means data which is stored in the UBI volume table but not on the volume itself.

UBI: modify ubi_wl_flush function to clear work queue for a lnum 2012-05-21T08:34:41+00:00 Joel Reardon joel@clambassador.com 2012-05-20T19:27:11+00:00 62f384552b6756cf1ea71f8762d1e97dc77dbd90 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.
