Hi Zhao,
First of all: your implementation of EBH summary support a good job,
congratulation!
I noticed only two things:
+ case JFFS2_NODETYPE_ERASEBLOCK_HEADER:
+ s->sum_size +=
JFFS2_SUMMARY_EBH_SIZE(je16_to_cpu(item->eh.dsize)*4);
Here I think you should use sizeof(uint32_t) instead of simple 4, as you
used it otherwhere. I's a very small thing, I know.
The other is related to it: if I were you I would store eh.dsize in
bytes, not in uint32. In every other places of JFFS2 the size is stored
byte based (if I am right), and there is no need to always multible by
sizeof(uint32_t) if the real size is needed.
I have only one big problem with this patch. I'm strongly against to
introduce INCOMPAT nodes JFFS2_NODETYPE_DIRENT_EBH and
JFFS2_NODETYPE_INODE_EBH just to make unusable new JFFS2 images for old
JFFS2 code on NAND devices, too. Do I understand well: is this the only
reason?
