This patch provides the possibility to adjust the "maximum expected number of bad blocks per 1024 blocks" (max_beb_per1024) for each mtd device.
The majority of NAND devices have their max_beb_per1024 equal to 20, but sometimes it's more. Now, we can adjust that via a kernel parameter: ubi.mtd=<name|num|path>[,<vid_hdr_offs>[,max_beb_per1024]] Signed-off-by: Richard Genoud <[email protected]> --- drivers/mtd/ubi/Kconfig | 2 ++ drivers/mtd/ubi/build.c | 38 ++++++++++++++++++++++++-------------- 2 files changed, 26 insertions(+), 14 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/mtd/ubi/Kconfig b/drivers/mtd/ubi/Kconfig index f326877..8b67bac 100644 --- a/drivers/mtd/ubi/Kconfig +++ b/drivers/mtd/ubi/Kconfig @@ -51,6 +51,8 @@ config MTD_UBI_BEB_LIMIT MTD partitions of the same size, UBI will reserve 40 eraseblocks when attaching a partition. + This option can be overridden by the kernel parameter ubi.mtd. + Leave the default value if unsure. config MTD_UBI_GLUEBI diff --git a/drivers/mtd/ubi/build.c b/drivers/mtd/ubi/build.c index ec7311f..cc05022 100644 --- a/drivers/mtd/ubi/build.c +++ b/drivers/mtd/ubi/build.c @@ -47,7 +47,7 @@ #define MTD_PARAM_LEN_MAX 64 /* Maximum number of comma-separated items in ht 'mtd=' parameter */ -#define MTD_PARAM_MAX_COUNT 2 +#define MTD_PARAM_MAX_COUNT 3 #ifdef CONFIG_MTD_UBI_MODULE #define ubi_is_module() 1 @@ -60,10 +60,12 @@ * @name: MTD character device node path, MTD device name, or MTD device number * string * @vid_hdr_offs: VID header offset + * @max_beb_per1024: maximum expected number of bad blocks per 1024 erase blocks */ struct mtd_dev_param { char name[MTD_PARAM_LEN_MAX]; int vid_hdr_offs; + int max_beb_per1024; }; /* Numbers of elements set in the @mtd_dev_param array */ @@ -1222,8 +1224,7 @@ static int __init ubi_init(void) mutex_lock(&ubi_devices_mutex); err = ubi_attach_mtd_dev(mtd, UBI_DEV_NUM_AUTO, - p->vid_hdr_offs, - CONFIG_MTD_UBI_BEB_LIMIT); + p->vid_hdr_offs, p->max_beb_per1024); mutex_unlock(&ubi_devices_mutex); if (err < 0) { ubi_err("cannot attach mtd%d", mtd->index); @@ -1343,6 +1344,7 @@ static int __init ubi_mtd_param_parse(const char *val, struct kernel_param *kp) char buf[MTD_PARAM_LEN_MAX]; char *pbuf = &buf[0]; char *tokens[MTD_PARAM_MAX_COUNT]; + int err; if (!val) return -EINVAL; @@ -1390,23 +1392,31 @@ static int __init ubi_mtd_param_parse(const char *val, struct kernel_param *kp) if (p->vid_hdr_offs < 0) return p->vid_hdr_offs; + if (tokens[2]) { + err = kstrtoint(tokens[2], 10, &p->max_beb_per1024); + if (err) { + pr_err("UBI error: bad value for max_beb_per1024 parameter: %s", + tokens[2]); + return -EINVAL; + } + } + mtd_devs += 1; return 0; } module_param_call(mtd, ubi_mtd_param_parse, NULL, NULL, 000); -MODULE_PARM_DESC(mtd, "MTD devices to attach.
