If the + underlying flash does not admit of bad eraseblocks (e.g. NOR + flash), this value is ignored. + + NAND datasheets often specify the minimum and maximum NVM + (Number of Valid Blocks) for the flashes' endurance lifetime. + The maximum expected bad eraseblocks per 1024 eraseblocks + then can be calculated as "1024 * (1 - MinNVB / MaxNVB)", + which gives 20 for most NANDs (MaxNVB is basically the total + count of eraseblocks on the chip). + + To put it differently, if this value is 20, UBI will try to + reserve about 1.9% of physical eraseblocks for bad blocks + handling. And that will be 1.9% of eraseblocks on the entire + NAND chip, not just the MTD partition UBI attaches. This means + that if you have, say, a NAND flash chip admits maximum 40 bad + eraseblocks, and it is split on two MTD partitions of the same + size, UBI will reserve 40 eraseblocks when attaching a + partition. + + default: 20 + + CONFIG_MTD_UBI_FASTMAP + Fastmap is a mechanism which allows attaching an UBI device + in nearly constant time.
