Subject: [PATCHv3] UBI: new module ubiblk: block layer on top of UBI

From: David Wagner <david.wagner@...e-electrons.com>

ubiblk is a read-only block layer on top of UBI.  It presents UBI volumes as
read-only block devices (named ubiblk_X_Y, where X is the UBI device number
and Y the Volume ID).

It is used by putting a block filesystem image on a UBI volume, creating the
corresponding ubiblk device and then mounting it.

It uses the UBI API to register to UBI notifications and to read from the
volumes.  It also creates a ubiblk_ctrl device node that simply receives ioctl
from a userspace tool for creating/removing ubiblk devices.

Some code is taken from mtd_blkdevs and gluebi.  Some code for the ioctl part is
also inspired from ubi's core.

Advantages of ubiblk over gluebi+mtdblock_ro:

 * Simpler architecture

 * The numbering of devices is much easier with ubiblk than with
   gluebi+mtdblock_ro. With gluebi+mtdblock_ro, you get one additional MTD
   device for each UBI volume, so the number of MTD devices grows quite a lot
   and is a bit difficult to understand. For example, mtdblock[0-4] might be
   your real MTD partitions, while mtdblock[5-9] might be your UBI volumes.
   It also means that if a new real MTD partition is added, the number of all
   the MTD devices exposing UBI volumes will be incremented by one, which is a
   bit confusing/annoying.
   As well, if you add an UBI volume, the mtdblock devices that are emulated on
   top of volumes that come after this new one will have their ID incremented.

 * ubiblk devices are created on a 'on-demand' basis, which avoids wasting
   resources.

 * The performance appears to be slightly better with ubiblk than
   gluebi+mtdblock_ro, according to our benchmarks (see
   http://elinux.org/Flash_Filesystem_Benchmarks_2.6.39)

TODO:
 * the modules keeps a table of the devices which length is the maximum number
   of UBI volumes.  There should be a better solution (linked list or, as
   Christoph Hellwig suggests, a radix tree (idr)).

	Hi Artem,

Here is the v3 of ubiblk implementing ioctls for on-demand creation/removal of
ubiblk device ; is it what you were thinking of ?

I also wrote a minimal (and ugly w.r.t argument parsing) tool in mtd-utils'
git ; I'll send it as a reply to this email.

known issue: attempts to create the same ubiblk device twice aren't catched and,
obviously, make things go wrong (see TODO).

Questions:
==========
I wasn't sure what magic ioctl number to use, so I settled to use the same one
as a part of UBI: 'O', which was so far only used by UBI but on a higher range
and leaving some room for UBI to add ioctls (for nw, it uses 'O'/0x00-0x06 and
ubiblk uses 'O'/0x10-0x11).  Is it ok or should ubiblk use a different
number/range ?


updates from v3:
===============
 - Removed unused parameter "struct ubi_device_info" from ubiblk_create

 - Synchronisation: forgot to release a mutex on the error path of ubiblk_create

 - New header ubiblk-user.h, contains ioctl numbers ; patch
   Documentation/ioctl/ioctl-numbers.txt (use the same magic as UBI but on
   another range, leaving expansion margin for UBI)

 - Add a ioctl handler and make it use the already-existing
   ubiblk_{create,remove} functions (inspired from ubi/cdev.c).

 - Register a miscdevice (inspired from ubi/build.c) that will only receive ioctls

 - Notifications: don't receive a notifications for already-existing volumes
   upon registration ; don't create a ubiblk device when a new UBI volume
   appears

 - Amend commit message and Kconfig according to these previous points

 
TODO:
=====
 - Use a dynamic structure for storing the ubiblk_devs (linked list or idr ?)
 - After this task is done, check that using ubiblkadd can't create an
   already-existing ubiblk device (see warning/todo in the code)
