由IBM、nokia工程师Thomas Gleixner,Artem Bityutskiy等人于2006年发起,致力于开发性能卓越、扩展性高的FLASH专用文件系统,以解决当前嵌入式环境下以FLASH作为MTD设备使用时的技术瓶颈。
UBI:一种类似于LVM的逻辑卷管理层。主要实现损益均衡,逻辑擦除块、卷管理,坏块管理等。
UBIFS:基于UBI的FLASH日志文件系统。

二、使用UBIFS前的准备
1. 配置linux内核
配置的时候选上
1)Device Drivers --->Memory Technology Device (MTD) support --->UBI - Unsorted block images --->Enable UBI
2)File systems --->Miscellaneous filesystems --->UBIFS file system support
这样我们的内核就支持UBIFS文件系统了
2. UBIFS工具
mtd-utils工具中提供了对UBIFS的支持,所以我们需要下载和编译这些工具,下载以下几个文件
1)下载(mtd-utils、zlib、lzo)源码
wget http://debian.mirror.inra.fr/deb ... 0080508.orig.tar.gz
wget http://www.zlib.net/zlib-1.2.3.tar.gz
wget http://www.oberhumer.com/opensource/lzo/download/lzo-2.03.tar.gz
2)编译安装zlib
tar xzvf zlib-1.2.3.tar.gz
cd zlib-1.2.3
make
make install
cd ..
3)编译安装lzo
tar xzvf lzo-2.03.tar.gz
cd lzo-2.03
make
make install
cd ..
4)编译mtd-utils
tar xzvf mtd-utils_20080508.orig.tar.gz
cd mtd-utils-20080508
make
mkfs.ubifs子目录下生成我们需要的mkfs.ubifs工具,通过这个工具我们能打包一个文件夹,生成UBIFS系统镜像
三、如何使用UBIFS
1) 制作根文件系统,比如我们的根文件目录为rootfs
2) 生成ubi烧写映像
mkfs.ubifs -r rootfs -m 512 -e 15872 -c 7976 -o ubifs.img
3) 通过UBOOT制作UBI分区
目前最新的UBOOT已经支持UBI分区,进入UBOOT命令行
- mtdparts default //加载默认分区表
- #define MTDPARTS_DEFAULT "mtdparts=nandflash0:320k(bootloader)," /
- "64k(params)," /
- "3m(kernel)," /
- "-(root)"
- flash erase root //格式化分区,root为文件系统分区
- ubi part root //root分区作为ubi文件系统
- ubi create rootfs //创建UBI volume
- ubi write 0x30008000 rootfs 0x2f8000
- #define CONFIG_BOOTARGS "ubi.mtd=2 root=ubi0:rootfs rootfstype=ubifs console=ttySAC0 mem=64M init=/linuxrc"
在SmartARM3250上使用UBIFS

使用ubifs
setenv bootargs ubi.mtd=4 root=ubi0:rootfs rootfstype=ubifs console=ttyS0,115200 mem=64M

第二、为何使用ubifs?
第三、如何得到ubifs?
2.6.22以后,ubifs活跃于git管理工程中:
git://git.infradead.org/ubi-2.6.git
2.6.27以后,ubifs被整合进内核树中,用户只需下载最新内核即可获取ubifs支持。
第四、如何使用ubifs?
软件环境:
linux-2.6.28
arm-linux-gcc 3.4.5
硬件环境:
s3c2410
k9f1208
一、准备
1、内核
配置的时候选上
1)Device Drivers --->Memory Technology Device (MTD) support --->UBI - Unsorted block images --->Enable UBI
2)File systems --->Miscellaneous filesystems --->UBIFS file system support
2、mtd-utils工具(flash_eraseall、ubiattach、ubimkvol)准备
1)下载(mtd-utils、zlib、lzo)源码
wget http://debian.mirror.inra.fr/debian/pool/main/m/mtd-utils/mtd-utils_20080508.orig.tar.gz
wget http://www.zlib.net/zlib-1.2.3.tar.gz
wget http://www.oberhumer.com/opensource/lzo/download/lzo-2.03.tar.gz
2)编译安装zlib
tar xzvf zlib-1.2.3.tar.gz
cd zlib-1.2.3
CC=arm-linux-gcc ./configure --shared --prefix=/usr/local/arm/3.4.5/arm-linux
make
make install
cd ..
3)编译安装lzo
tar xzvf lzo-2.03.tar.gz
cd lzo-2.03
CC=arm-linux-gcc ./configure --host=arm-linux --prefix=/usr/local/arm/3.4.5/arm-linux
make
make install
cd ..
4)编译mtd-utils
tar xzvf mtd-utils_20080508.orig.tar.gz
cd mtd-utils-20080508
修改Makefile文件:
#CROSS=arm-linux-
修改为 CROSS=arm-linux-
BUILDDIR := $(CROSS:-=)
修改为 BUILDDIR := .
修改ubi-utils/Makefile文件:
添加 CROSS=arm-linux-
修改 ubi-utils/new-utils/Makefile文件:
添加 CROSS=arm-linux-
make WITHOUT_XATTR=1
ubi-utils子目录下生成我们需要的ubiattach、ubimkvol等文件(请确保是交叉编译所得)
3、mtd-utils工具(mkfs.ubifs、ubinize)准备
git-clone git://git.infradead.org/mtd-utils.git
cd mtd-utils/
make
mkfs.ubifs子目录下生成我们需要的mkfs.ubifs工具
ubi-utils/new-utils子目录下生成我们需要的ubinize工具
二、使用
1、使用ramfs或nfs启动系统,执行以下命令挂载ubifs:
1)flash_eraseall /dev/mtd4
2)ubiattach /dev/ubi_ctrl -m 4
3)ubimkvol /dev/ubi0 -N rootfs -s 50MiB
4)mount -t ubifs ubi0_0 /mnt或mount -t ubifs ubi0:rootfs /mnt
2、如果你想使用ubifs为rootfs,把文件系统内容解压到ubifs挂载目录下,并修改内核启动参数为:
console=ttySAC0 ubi.mtd=4 root=ubi0:rootfs rootfstype=ubifs
3、如果你想直接在bootloader下烧写ubifs映像,使用以下命令制作ubi烧写映像:
mkfs.ubifs -r rootfs -m 512 -e 15872 -c 3303 -o ubifs.img
ubinize -o ubi.img -m 512 -p 16KiB -s 256 ubinize.cfg
其中:
1)以上命令的参数可从ubifs挂载信息中提取:
UBI: attaching mtd4 to ubi0
UBI: physical eraseblock size: 16384 bytes (16 KiB)
UBI: logical eraseblock size: 15872 bytes
UBI: smallest flash I/O unit: 512
UBI: sub-page size: 256
UBI: VID header offset: 256 (aligned 256)
UBI: data offset: 512
UBI: attached mtd4 to ubi0
2)配置文件ubinize.cfg的内容为:
[ubifs]
mode=ubi
image=ubifs.img
vol_id=0
vol_size=50MiB
vol_type=dynamic
vol_name=rootfs
vol_flags=autoresize
