Block drivers are responsible for calling flush_dcache_page() on each
BIO request. This operation keeps the I$ coherent with the D$ on
architectures that don't have hardware coherency support. Without this
flush, random crashes are seen when executing user programs from an ext4
filesystem backed by a ubiblock device.
This patch is based on the change implemented in commit 2d4dc890b5
("block: add helpers to run flush_dcache_page() against a bio and a
request's pages").

If UBI is unable to write the fastmap to the device

In case we cannot ensure that they only thing we can do

It could happen that a powercut while invalidating would

a) Rename ubi->fm_sem to ubi->fm_eba_sem as this semaphore
protects EBA changes.
b) Turn ubi->fm_mutex into a rw semaphore. It will still serialize
fastmap writes but also ensures that ubi_wl_put_peb() is not
interrupted by a fastmap write. We use a rw semaphore to allow
ubi_wl_put_peb() still to be executed in parallel if no fastmap
write is happening.

ubi_wl_get_peb() returns a fresh PEB which can be used by
user of UBI. Due to the pool logic fastmap will correctly
map this PEB upon attach time because it will be scanned.
If a new fastmap is written (due to heavy parallel io)
while the before the fresh PEB is assigned to the EBA table
it will not be scanned as it is no longer in the pool.
So, the race window exists between ubi_wl_get_peb()
and the EBA table assignment.
We have to make sure that no new fastmap can be written
while that.
To ensure that ubi_wl_get_peb() will grab ubi->fm_sem in read mode
and the user of ubi_wl_get_peb() has to release it after the PEB
got assigned.

It is legal to have PEBs left in the used list.
This can happen if UBI copies a PEB and a powercut happens
between writing a new fastmap and adding this PEB into the EBA table.
In this case the old PEB will be used.
Signed-off-by: Richard Weinberger <richard@nod.at>
This function a) requests a new PEB, b) writes data to it,
c) returns the old PEB and d) registers the new PEB in the EBA table.
For the non-fastmap case this works perfectly fine and is powercut safe.
Is fastmap enabled this can lead to issues.
If a new fastmap is written between a) and c) the freshly requested PEB
is no longer in a pool and will not be scanned upon attaching.
If now a powercut happens between c) and d) the freshly requested PEB
will not be scanned and the old one got already scheduled for erase.
After attaching the EBA table will point to a erased PEB.
Fix this issue by swapping steps c) and d).

ubi_wl_get_peb() has two problems, it reads the pool

While reading one value would be perfectly fine it reads multiple

Furthermore ubi_update_fastmap() is called without wl_lock held,
before incrementing the used counter it needs to be checked again.
It could happen that another thread consumed all PEBs from the

It also makes error messages more descriptive by including the

dev/ubi3_0 properly and included "ubi.block=5,0 ubi.block=3,0" on
