UBIFS
UBIFS is next generation of JFFS2 file-system.
JFFS2 file systems works on MTD devices, UBIFS is works on UBI volumes which is on MTD devices.
UBIFS is much more quicker than JFFS2 and nowadays people prefer UBI as filesystem.
For more information on MTD, refer <http://www.linux-mtd.infradead.org/doc/general.html> ,on UBI refer <http://www.linux-mtd.infradead.org/doc/ubi.html> ,on UBIFS refer <http://www.linux-mtd.infradead.org/doc/ubifs.html>
UBIFS User-space tools
Most used UBIFS User-space tools are shown below.All All UBI tools support "-h" option and print sufficient usage information.You can use "-h" option to see help about commands.
ubinfo - provides information about UBI devices and volumes found in the system;
ubiattach - attaches MTD devices (which describe raw flash) to UBI and creates corresponding UBI devices;
ubidetach - detaches MTD devices from UBI devices (the opposite to what ubiattach does);
ubimkvol - creates UBI volumes on UBI devices;
ubirmvol - removes UBI volumes from UBI devices;
ubiupdatevol - updates UBI volumes; this tool uses the UBI volume update feature which leaves the volume in
"corrupted" state if the update was interrupted; additionally, this tool may be used to wipe
out UBI volumes;
ubicrc32 - calculates CRC-32 checksum of a file with the same initial seed as UBI would use;
ubinize - generates UBI images;
ubiformat - formats empty flash, erases flash and preserves erase counters, flashes UBI images to MTD devices;
mtdinfo - reports information about MTD devices found in the system.
Obtaining UBIFS Tools
The MTD and UBI user-space tools are available from the the following git repository:
git://git.infradead.org/mtd-utils.git
However,we suggest you to download our pre-built mtd-utils at here
Creating UBIFS
From information on how to create a UBIFS image. refer create an UBIFS image
- Boot from NFS.
- You can use following command to learn parameter which is necessary for UBIFS creation.
root@bosphorus-2:/# ./sbin_mtd/mtdinfo /dev/mtd7 -u
mtd7
Name: File System
Type: nand
Eraseblock size: 131072 bytes, 128.0 KiB
Amount of eraseblocks: 4036 (529006592 bytes, 504.5 MiB)
Minimum input/output unit size: 2048 bytes
Sub-page size: 512 bytes
OOB size: 64 bytes
Character device major/minor: 90:14
Bad blocks are allowed: true
Device is writable: true
Default UBI VID header offset: 512
Default UBI data offset: 2048
Default UBI LEB size: 129024 bytes, 126.0 KiB
Maximum UBI volumes count: 128 root@bosphorus-1:/#
There are two steps for creating UBIFS.
First,
- mkfs.ubifs
General use of mkfs.ubifs,
# mkfs.ubifs -r </path/to/your/rootfs/tree> -m <min io size>
-e <LEB size> -c <Eraseblocks count>
-o </path/to/output/ubifs.img>
For Bosphorus-II,
mtd-utils# mkfs.ubifs/mkfs.ubifs -r /your-rootfs/ -F -o ubifs.img -m 2048 -e 126976 -c 4036
The output of the above command, ubifs.img is fed into the 'ubinize' program to wrap it into a UBI image.
The images produced by mkfs.ubifs must be further fed to the ubinize tool to create a UBI image which must be put to the raw flash to be used a UBI partition.
Second step,
- Create ubinize.cfg file and write the contents into it
mtd-utils# vi ubinize.cfg
[ubifs] <== Section header
mode=ubi <== Volume mode (other option is static)
image=ubifs.img <== Source image
vol_id=0 <== Volume ID in UBI image
vol_size=400MiB <== Volume size
vol_type=dynamic <== Allow for dynamic resize
vol_name=rootfs <== Volume name
vol_flags=autoresize <== Autoresize volume at first mount
- ubinize
General use of ubinize,
ubinize -o <output image> -m <min io size> -p <PEB size>KiB <configuration file>
For Bosphorus-II,
./sbin_mtd/ubinize -o ubi.img -m 2048 -p 128KiB -s 512 -O 2048 ubinize.cfg
For more information about parameter you can use "-h" option.
Where:
-o ubi.img
Output file
-m 2KiB (or 2048)
Minimum flash I/O size of 2KiB page
-p 128KiB
Size of the physical eraseblock of the flash this UBI image is created for
-O 2048 offset if the VID header from start of the physical eraseblock
The output of the above command, 'ubi.img' is the required image.
Flashing and Mounting UBIFS to NAND
Yo can use following command to flash UBIFS.
root@bosphorus-2:/# ./sbin_mtd/ubiformat /dev/mtd7 -f ubi.img -s 512 -O 2048
ubiformat: mtd7 (nand), size 529006592 bytes (504.5 MiB), 4036 eraseblocks of 131072 bytes (128.0 KiB), min. I/O size 2048 bytes
libscan: scanning eraseblock 4035 -- 100 % complete
ubiformat: 4036 eraseblocks have valid erase counter, mean value is 1
ubiformat: flashing eraseblock 53 -- 100 % complete
ubiformat: formatting eraseblock 4035 -- 100 % complete
Attaching UBIFS, you can use following command.If you want to mount UBIFS, firstly you should attach it.You can use ubidetach for detaching.
root@bosphorus-2:/# ./sbin_mtd/ubiattach --vid-hdr-offset 2048 /dev/ubi_ctrl -m7

U-Boot Bootargs Command for UBIFS
setenv bootargs console=ttyO0,115200 ubi.mtd=X,YYYY rootfstype=ubifs root=ubi0:rootfs rw
Where X is the MTD partition number being used for file system and YYYY is the NAND page size.Make sure that an UBI file system is flashed into this partition before passing it as a boot partition for Linux
Assuming mtd 5,
setenv bootargs console=ttyO0,115200 root=ubi0:rootfs ubi.mtd =7,2048 rw rootfstype=ubifs ip=dhcp
saveenv
Note : Above steps can be done with Network File System or SD/MMC File System.
