Hi, in order to perform sysupgrade on a system having it's rootfs on UBI in the same way we are using sysupgrade now, we will need a "force" option in ubidetach (as lazy-umount of /rom during sysupgrade won't reduce the refcount, thus makes detaching and subsequent ubiformat impossible). Several questions come up at that point: a) in the long-run, should we use mtd-utils or the busybox ubi* applets on UBI systems?
b) ubi_detach_mtd already supports a boolean parameter 'anyway' which allows detaching with refcount!=0 . All needed is therefore exposing this option on the control-device, so userspace can use it. Should that be done by: - extending the passing of parameters in such way that it can pass a flag 'force' - using a separate IOCTL for UBI_IOCDET_FORCE Looking forward to hear everybody's opinion on that :) Cheers Daniel _______________________________________________ openwrt-devel mailing list openwrt-devel@lists.openwrt.org https://lists.openwrt.org/mailman/listinfo/openwrt-devel
