[RFC][PATCH 1/7] MTD: UBI: Add checkpoint on-chip layout

Richard Weinberger rw at linutronix.de
Tue Feb 14 15:06:40 EST 2012


Specify the on-chip checkpoint layout.
The checkpoint consists of two major parts.
A super block (identified via UBI_CP_SB_VOLUME_ID) and
zero or more data blocks (identified via UBI_CP_DATA_VOLUME_ID).
Data blocks are only used if whole checkpoint information does not fit
into the super block.

Currently UBI_CP_MAX_START, UBI_CP_MAX_BLOCKS and UBI_CP_MAX_POOL_SIZE
are hard-coded.
In future this values may be configurable via Kconfig or sysfs.
All three checkpointing pools have the same size for now, this my also change.
An automatic calibration would be also nice to have.
