I was experiencing overflows in multiplications for
volume->used_bytes in vmt.c & vtbl.c, while creating & resizing large volumes.
vol->used_bytes is long long however its 2 operands vol->used_ebs &
vol->usable_leb_size
are int. So their multiplication for larger values causes integer overflows.
Typecasting them solves the problem.
My machine & flash details:
64Bit dual-core AMD opteron, 1 GB RAM, linux 2.6.18.3.
mtd size = 6GB, volume size= 5GB, peb_size = 4MB.
heres patch which does the fix.

Hi,I came across problem of having two leb with same sequence no.This
happens when we continuously write one block again and again and reboot
machine before background thread erases those blocks.
The problem here was,when we find two blocks with same sequence no,we take
the higher one,but we were not updating max seq no,so next block may have
the same seqnum.
This patch solves this problem.

There is signed multiplication assigned to unsigned ei.addr in io.c.
This causes wrong addresses for big multiplication.This patch solves the
problem.

atomic_leb_change() is only allowed for dynamic volumes, so set
the volume type correctly.

Do not check volumes which are currently in use because thay may be
in inconsistent state.

When volume creation fails, we have to set ubi->volumes[vol_id]
back to NULL.
This patch also tweaks some debugging stuff.

ubi->vtbl is allocated using vmalloc() in vtbl.c empty_create_lvol(),
but it is freed in build.c with kfree()

Do not call 'ubi_wl_put_peb()' if the LEB was unmapped.

Use coma at the the last elements of structure initializer.
Daniel Stone's explanation:
Because it turns:
- .attr = foo
+ .attr = foo,
+ .bar = baz
into:
+ .bar = baz,
i.e., far less likely to screw up a merge.

UBI allocates temporary buffers of PEB size, which may be 256KiB.
Use vmalloc instead of kmalloc for such big temporary buffers.

In case of static volumes, make emulated MTD device size to

This patch makes ubi_scan_add_to_list() static and renames it to
add_to_list(), just because it is not needed outside scan.c anymore.

The old IDE driver is not ready to take generic SCSI commands, even if
it uses them for some specific issues (ie the tray open/close ioctls for
IDE CD-ROM's). Pointed out by Bartlomiej.
I'm sure we'll have it fixed properly soon enough, but for now we should
not allow it to cause problems.
