When this threshold is exceeded, UBI starts performing + wear leveling by means of moving data from eraseblock with low erase + counter to eraseblocks with high erase counter. + + The default value should be OK for SLC NAND flashes, NOR flashes and + other flashes which have eraseblock life-cycle 100000 or more. + However, in case of MLC NAND flashes which typically have eraseblock + life-cycle less than 10000, the threshold should be lessened (e.g., + to 128 or 256, although it does not have to be power of 2). + +config MTD_UBI_BEB_LIMIT + int "Maximum expected bad eraseblock count per 1024 eraseblocks" + default 20 + range 0 768 + help + This option specifies the maximum bad physical eraseblocks UBI + expects on the MTD device (per 1024 eraseblocks). If the underlying + flash does not admit of bad eraseblocks (e.g. NOR flash), this value + is ignored. + + NAND datasheets often specify the minimum and maximum NVM (Number of + Valid Blocks) for the flashes' endurance lifetime. The maximum + expected bad eraseblocks per 1024 eraseblocks then can be calculated + as "1024 * (1 - MinNVB / MaxNVB)", which gives 20 for most NANDs + (MaxNVB is basically the total count of eraseblocks on the chip). + + To put it differently, if this value is 20, UBI will try to reserve + about 1.9% of physical eraseblocks for bad blocks handling. And that + will be 1.9% of eraseblocks on the entire NAND chip, not just the MTD + partition UBI attaches. This means that if you have, say, a NAND + flash chip admits maximum 40 bad eraseblocks, and it is split on two + MTD partitions of the same size, UBI will reserve 40 eraseblocks when + attaching a partition. + + This option can be overridden by the "mtd=" UBI module parameter or + by the "attach" ioctl. + + Leave the default value if unsure. + +config MTD_UBI_FASTMAP + bool "UBI Fastmap (Experimental feature)" + default n + help + Important: this feature is experimental so far and the on-flash + format for fastmap may change in the next kernel versions + + Fastmap is a mechanism which allows attaching an UBI device + in nearly constant time.
