Subject: RE: UBIFS LEB properties tree with odd addresses

Hi Richard,

As per the above query only, I have given the below inputs.
>Maybe you miss some bit and set incorrect MTD properties.
I double checked the MTD properties (as mentioned above) which were causing the failure, but didn't find any clue.
All mtd properties looks good for dual parallel case(there is no odd value).

Is there any impact by putting below logic in do_calc_lpt_geom() ?
If(c->pnode_sz % 2)
    c->pnode_sz += 1;

please suggest me to do any further debugging?

Thanks,
Naga Sureshkumar Relli
