Hi
On my board I needed to pass a custom VID header offset to ubiattach.
This patch adds the required option to the barebox command.
I also fixed a bug in the error handling of the return value of
ubi_attach_mtd_dev().
This function doesn't always return 0 on success, it returns the UBI number.
So without this patch, an error message is printed when attaching many
UBI devices.
thanks for your work

I don't know exactly, but I suspect something is wrong on your board
then. Normally the VID header offset should be detected correctly
automatically. Does the kernel also need a special VID header offset?
Have you flashed an UBI image or did you generate the UBI on the target
directly?

You mailer wraps lines. I won't be able to apply this patch.

I also need to specify VID header offset 2048 to the kernel. It came configured as such from the vendor (phytec, board am335x).
I flashed an UBI image generated by ptxdist.
If the kernel has this option, shouldn't barebox have it too?
If you are still interested by the patch, I will format it properly, using getopt() and without line wraps.

I'm interested in this patch once it's clear that this option is needed.
Right now I think that the work is better invested in making this option
unneeded. Jan, do you have insights why this is needed?

Linux with current mainline + pending GPMC/ELM patches thinks it
supports sub-page reads/writes on 2k page NAND with BCH8. This is simply
wrong. By using "root=ubi0:root ubi.mtd=nand0.root,2048
rootfstype=ubifs" in the kernel cmdline, you will get this override in
the kernel.
The GMPC NAND driver in barebox correctly does not use sub-page-access
and works fine without overriding the VID header offset.
When building the UBIFS/UBI the offset must obviously be set correctly.
Which kernel & barebox are you using?
Regards,
Jan

I am using kernel 3.2.0 and barebox 2012.11.0.
Both with patches from Phytec (phyCORE-AM335x-PD12.1.1).

I'm not sure if that barebox is different to the latest one regarding
the GPMC NAND support...
Does it actually fail on your board without this patch?
I have here:
...
NAND device: Manufacturer ID: 0x2c, Chip ID: 0xda (Micron NAND 256MiB 3,3V 8-bit), page size: 2048, OOB size: 64
...
barebox:/ devinfo nand0
resources:
driver: none
bus: none
Parameters:
size = 268435456
erasesize = 131072
writesize = 2048
oobsize = 64
barebox:/ ubiattach /dev/nand0.root
UBI: attaching mtd0 to ubi0
UBI: physical eraseblock size: 131072 bytes (128 KiB)
UBI: logical eraseblock size: 126976 bytes
UBI: smallest flash I/O unit: 2048
UBI: VID header offset: 2048 (aligned 2048)
UBI: data offset: 4096
registering /dev/ubi0
registering root as /dev/ubi0.root
UBI: attached mtd0 to ubi0
UBI: MTD device name: "nand0.root"
UBI: MTD device size: 96 MiB
UBI: number of good PEBs: 768
UBI: number of bad PEBs: 0
UBI: max. allowed volumes: 128
UBI: wear-leveling threshold: 4096
UBI: number of internal volumes: 1
UBI: number of user volumes: 1
UBI: available PEBs: 33
UBI: total number of reserved PEBs: 735
UBI: number of PEBs reserved for bad PEB handling: 7
UBI: max/mean erase counter: 15/8
barebox:/
So it figures out the VID offset correctly from the writesize of 2048.
Regards,
Jan

I tried barebox 2013.02.0 but it doesn't detect my NAND, so I guess the
patch is still required.

What board and barebox version did you run this on?
I guess that means I should try to fix the problem in my NAND driver?
thanks for your help

Why don't you configure ptxdist to generate an image with the correct
VID header offset?

Some time you want to flash the same UBI on different NAND so this is usefull

Hi
This patch fix a bug where an error message is printed when
attaching more than one UBI device. ubi_attach_mtd_dev() returns
the UBI device number (>=0) on success.
