ubifs: allow userspace to map mounts to volumes
There currently appears to be no way for userspace to find out the underlying volume number for a mounted ubifs file system, since ubifs uses anonymous block devices. The volume name is present in /proc/mounts but UBI volumes can be renamed after the volume has been mounted. To remedy this, show the UBI number and UBI volume number as part of the options visible under /proc/mounts. Also, accept and ignore the ubi= vol= options if they are used mounting (patch from Richard Weinberger). # mount -t ubifs ubi:baz x # mount ubi:baz on /root/x type ubifs (rw,relatime,ubi=0,vol=2) # ubirename /dev/ubi0 baz bazz # mount ubi:baz on /root/x type ubifs (rw,relatime,ubi=0,vol=2) # ubinfo -d 0 -n 2 Volume ID: 2 (on ubi0) Type: dynamic Alignment: 1 Size: 67 LEBs (1063424 bytes, 1.0 MiB) State: OK Name: bazz Character device major/minor: 254:3 Signed-off-by: Rabin Vincent <rabinv@axis.com> Signed-off-by: Richard Weinberger <richard@nod.at>
