I just updated the "ubi_sync_with_linux" branch on u-boot-ubi.
It seems UBI/UBIFS now work with the NAND on the aristainetos2
board, but my stomach says, there are some subtile issues ...
Still needs more testing, also not tested yet UBI on the SPI NOR on
this board.
If I "nand erase" the mtd device, and try "ubi part ..." it fails
:-(
But If I flash_eraseall under linux the device, and then make
"ubi part..." in U-Boot, commmand succeeds ...
Tested it on my custom AM335x board. Haven't used mainline U-Boot
but cherry-picked the following commits:
linux, compat: add missing definitions for ubi
ubi/ubifs: some bugfixes
ubi,ubifs: sync with linux v4.2
ubi: reset mtd_devs when ubi part fail
Commits apply cleanly except for "linux, compat: add missing
definitions for ubi"
which was trivial to backport anyway.
U-Boot built fine, but there was a warning:
drivers/mtd/ubi/fastmap.c: In function 'ubi_attach_fastmap':
drivers/mtd/ubi/fastmap.c:816:2: warning: pointer targets in passing
argument 3 of 'scan_pool' differ in signedness [-Wpointer-sign]
ret = scan_pool(ubi, ai, fmpl->pebs, pool_size, &max_sqnum, &free);
Just sent this patch which should fix it:
http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/531842/
Thanks for fixing. With it, I see no compiler warning anymore.
Applied to u-boot-ubi.git ubi_sync_with_linux
Tried this branch on the aristainetos2 board with ubi/ubifs on nand and
spi nor flash, worked fine, see log:
http://xeidos.ddns.net/buildbot/builders/ari_ubi/builds/7
http://xeidos.ddns.net/buildbot/builders/ari_ubi/builds/7/steps/shell/logs/tbotlog
The board seems to work fine, and I can even to "nand erase" and "ubi
part" without
any problem.
Did you tried "ubi part" more than once in a row?
However, I'm still seeing the same warning I had before, when my partition
is attached:
ubi0: default fastmap pool size: 200
ubi0: default fastmap WL pool size: 100
ubi0: attaching mtd1
WARNING in drivers/mtd/ubi/fastmap.c line 846

@Richard, any ideas? Do you know which of the fixes should fix that?
Does this warning raise also in linux? I do not see it on the aristainetos2
board.
U-Boot code:
/*
* If fastmap is leaking PEBs (must not happen), raise a
* fat warning and fall back to scanning mode.
* We do this here because in ubi_wl_init() it's too late
* and we cannot fall back to scanning.
*/
#ifndef __UBOOT__
if (WARN_ON(count_fastmap_pebs(ai) != ubi->peb_count -
ai->bad_peb_count - fm->used_blocks))
goto fail_bad;
#else
if (count_fastmap_pebs(ai) != ubi->peb_count -
ai->bad_peb_count - fm->used_blocks) {
WARN_ON(1);
goto fail_bad;
}
#endif
Hmm.. could not remember, why I did this U-Boot specific ...
But that;s a good example, why I like the "#ifndef __UBOOT__"
in Code ... I immediately see, if its linux or u-boot specific
code ... maybe its worth to try the original linux code?
bye,
Heiko
