/*
 * This file includes volume table manipulation code. The volume table is an
 * on-flash table containing volume meta-data like name, number of reserved
 * physical eraseblocks, type, etc. The volume table is stored in the so-called
 * "layout volume".
 *
 * The layout volume is an internal volume which is organized as follows. It
 * consists of two logical eraseblocks - LEB 0 and LEB 1. Each logical
 * eraseblock stores one volume table copy, i.e. LEB 0 and LEB 1 duplicate each
 * other. This redundancy guarantees robustness to unclean reboots. The volume
 * table is basically an array of volume table records. Each record contains
 * full information about the volume and protected by a CRC checksum.
 *
 * The volume table is changed, it is first changed in RAM. Then LEB 0 is
 * erased, and the updated volume table is written back to LEB 0. Then same for
 * LEB 1. This scheme guarantees recoverability from unclean reboots.
 *
 * In this UBI implementation the on-flash volume table does not contain any
 * information about how much data static volumes contain.
 *
 * But it would still be beneficial to store this information in the volume
 * table. For example, suppose we have a static volume X, and all its physical
 * eraseblocks became bad for some reasons. Suppose we are attaching the
 * corresponding MTD device, for some reason we find no logical eraseblocks
 * corresponding to the volume X. According to the volume table volume X does
 * exist. So we don't know whether it is just empty or all its physical
 * eraseblocks went bad. So we cannot alarm the user properly.
 *
 * The volume table also stores so-called "update marker", which is used for
 * volume updates. Before updating the volume, the update marker is set, and
 * after the update operation is finished, the update marker is cleared. So if
 * the update operation was interrupted (e.g. by an unclean reboot) - the
 * update marker is still there and we know that the volume's contents is
 * damaged.
