What: /sys/class/ubi/
Date: July 2006
KernelVersion: 2.6.22
Contact: Artem Bityutskiy <dedekind@infradead.org>
Description:
The ubi/ class sub-directory belongs to the UBI subsystem and
provides general UBI information, per-UBI device information
and per-UBI volume information.

What: /sys/class/ubi/version
Date: July 2006
KernelVersion: 2.6.22
Contact: Artem Bityutskiy <dedekind@infradead.org>
Description:
This file contains version of the latest supported UBI on-media
format. Currently it is 1, and there is no plan to change this.
However, if in the future UBI needs on-flash format changes
which cannot be done in a compatible manner, a new format
version will be added. So this is a mechanism for possible
future backward-compatible (but forward-incompatible)
improvements.

What: /sys/class/ubiX/
Date: July 2006
KernelVersion: 2.6.22
Contact: Artem Bityutskiy <dedekind@infradead.org>
Description:
The /sys/class/ubi0, /sys/class/ubi1, etc directories describe
UBI devices (UBI device 0, 1, etc). They contain general UBI
device information and per UBI volume information (each UBI
device may have many UBI volumes)

Date: July 2006
KernelVersion: 2.6.22

Date: July 2006
KernelVersion: 2.6.22
Contact: Artem Bityutskiy <dedekind@infradead.org>
Description:
Volume alignment - the value the logical eraseblock size of
this volume has to be aligned on. For example, 2048 means that
logical eraseblock size is multiple of 2048. In other words,
volume logical eraseblock size is UBI device logical eraseblock
size aligned to the alignment value.

Date: July 2006
KernelVersion: 2.6.22
Contact: Artem Bityutskiy <dedekind@infradead.org>

What: /sys/class/ubi/ubiX/ubiX_Y/reserved_ebs
Date: July 2006
KernelVersion: 2.6.22
Contact: Artem Bityutskiy <dedekind@infradead.org>
Description:

What: /sys/class/ubi/ubiX/ubiX_Y/type
Date: July 2006
KernelVersion: 2.6.22
Contact: Artem Bityutskiy <dedekind@infradead.org>
Description:
Volume type. Contains ASCII "dynamic\n" for dynamic volumes and
"static\n" for static volumes.

What: /sys/class/ubi/ubiX/ubiX_Y/upd_marker
Date: July 2006
KernelVersion: 2.6.22
Contact: Artem Bityutskiy <dedekind@infradead.org>
Description:
Contains ASCII "0\n" if the update marker is not set for this
volume, and "1\n" if it is set. The update marker is set when
volume update starts, and cleaned when it ends. So the presence
of the update marker indicates that the volume is being updated
at the moment of the update was interrupted. The later may be
checked using the "corrupted" sysfs file.

What: /sys/class/ubi/ubiX/ubiX_Y/usable_eb_size
Date: July 2006
KernelVersion: 2.6.22
Contact: Artem Bityutskiy <dedekind@infradead.org>
Description:
Logical eraseblock size of this volume. Equivalent to logical
eraseblock size of the device aligned on the volume alignment
value.

S3C24XX NAND Support
====================

Introduction
------------

Small Page NAND
---------------

The driver uses a 512 byte (1 page) ECC code for this setup. The
ECC code is not directly compatible with the default kernel ECC
code, so the driver enforces its own OOB layout and ECC parameters

Large Page NAND
---------------

The driver is capable of handling NAND flash with a 2KiB page
size, with support for hardware ECC generation and correction.

Unlike the 512byte page mode, the driver generates ECC data for
each 256 byte block in an 2KiB page. This means that more than
one error in a page can be rectified. It also means that the
OOB layout remains the default kernel layout for these flashes.
