45  * struct ubi_volume_info - UBI volume description data structure.
46  * @vol_id: volume ID
47  * @ubi_num: UBI device number this volume belongs to
48  * @size: how many physical eraseblocks are reserved for this volume
49  * @used_bytes: how many bytes of data this volume contains
50  * @used_ebs: how many physical eraseblocks of this volume actually contain any
51  *            data
52  * @vol_type: volume type (%UBI_DYNAMIC_VOLUME or %UBI_STATIC_VOLUME)
53  * @corrupted: non-zero if the volume is corrupted (static volumes only)
54  * @upd_marker: non-zero if the volume has update marker set
55  * @alignment: volume alignment
56  * @usable_leb_size: how many bytes are available in logical eraseblocks of
57  *                   this volume
58  * @name_len: volume name length
59  * @name: volume name
60  * @cdev: UBI volume character device major and minor numbers
61  *
62  * The @corrupted flag is only relevant to static volumes and is always zero
63  * for dynamic ones. This is because UBI does not care about dynamic volume
64  * data protection and only cares about protecting static volume data.
65  *
66  * The @upd_marker flag is set if the volume update operation was interrupted.
67  * Before touching the volume data during the update operation, UBI first sets
68  * the update marker flag for this volume. If the volume update operation was
69  * further interrupted, the update marker indicates this. If the update marker
70  * is set, the contents of the volume is certainly damaged and a new volume
71  * update operation has to be started.
72  *
73  * To put it differently, @corrupted and @upd_marker fields have different
74  * semantics:
75  *     o the @corrupted flag means that this static volume is corrupted for some
76  *       reasons, but not because an interrupted volume update
77  *     o the @upd_marker field means that the volume is damaged because of an
78  *       interrupted update operation.
79  *
80  * I.e., the @corrupted flag is never set if the @upd_marker flag is set.
81  *
82  * The @used_bytes and @used_ebs fields are only really needed for static
83  * volumes and contain the number of bytes stored in this static volume and how
84  * many eraseblock this data occupies. In case of dynamic volumes, the
85  * @used_bytes field is equivalent to @size*@usable_leb_size, and the @used_ebs
86  * field is equivalent to @size.
87  *
88  * In general, logical eraseblock size is a property of the UBI device, not
89  * of the UBI volume. Indeed, the logical eraseblock size depends on the
90  * physical eraseblock size and on how much bytes UBI headers consume. But
91  * because of the volume alignment (@alignment), the usable size of logical
92  * eraseblocks if a volume may be less. The following equation is true:
93  *	@usable_leb_size = LEB size - (LEB size mod @alignment),
94  * where LEB size is the logical eraseblock size defined by the UBI device.
95  *
96  * The alignment is multiple to the minimal flash input/output unit size or %1
97  * if all the available space is used.
98  *
99  * To put this differently, alignment may be considered is a way to change
100  * volume logical eraseblock sizes.

130  * Note, @leb_size is the logical eraseblock size offered by the UBI device.
131  * Volumes of this UBI device may have smaller logical eraseblock size if their
132  * alignment is not equivalent to %1.
133  *
134  * The @max_write_size field describes flash write maximum write unit. For
135  * example, NOR flash allows for changing individual bytes, so @min_io_size is
136  * %1. However, it does not mean than NOR flash has to write data byte-by-byte.
137  * Instead, CFI NOR flashes have a write-buffer of, e.g., 64 bytes, and when
138  * writing large chunks of data, they write 64-bytes at a time. Obviously, this
139  * improves write throughput.
140  *
141  * Also, the MTD device may have N interleaved (striped) flash chips
142  * underneath, in which case @min_io_size can be physical min. I/O size of
143  * single flash chip, while @max_write_size can be N * @min_io_size.
144  *
145  * The @max_write_size field is always greater or equivalent to @min_io_size.
146  * E.g., some NOR flashes may have (@min_io_size = 1, @max_write_size = 64). In
147  * contrast, NAND flashes usually have @min_io_size = @max_write_size = NAND
148  * page size.
