From 2bf50d42f3a418153d2964ca0f25655177f36445 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dan Ehrenberg Date: Tue, 17 Mar 2015 10:37:26 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] UBI: block: Dynamically allocate minor numbers This patch makes ubiblock devices have minor numbers beginning from 0, allocated dynamically independently of the ubi device/volume number. This property becomes useful because, on 32-bit architectures with LFS turned off in a userspace program, device minor numbers over 8 bits cause stat to return -EOVERFLOW. If the device number is high (>1) due to multiple MTD partitions, such an overflow will occur. While enabling LFS is clearly a nicer solution, it's often difficult to turn on in practice globally as many widely distributed packages don't work with LFS on. Other storage systems have their own workarounds, with SCSI making multiple device majors and MMC having a config option for the number of partitions per device. A completely dynamic minor numbering is simpler than these. It is unlikely that anyone is depending on a static minor number since the major is dynamic anyway. In addition, ubiblock is still relatively new, so now is the time to make such changes.
