| 11 | UBI is a software layer above MTD layer which admits of LVM-like |
| 12 | logical volumes on top of MTD devices, hides some complexities of |
| 13 | flash chips like wear and bad blocks and provides some other useful |
| 14 | capabilities. Please, consult the MTD web site for more details |
| 15 | (www.linux-mtd.infradead.org). |

| 22 | help |
| 23 | This parameter defines the maximum difference between the highest |
| 24 | erase counter value and the lowest erase counter value of eraseblocks |
| 25 | of UBI devices. When this threshold is exceeded, UBI starts performing |
| 26 | wear leveling by means of moving data from eraseblock with low erase |
| 27 | counter to eraseblocks with high erase counter. Leave the default |
| 28 | value if unsure. |

| 34 | depends on MTD_UBI |
| 35 | help |
| 36 | If the MTD device admits of bad eraseblocks (e.g. NAND flash), UBI |
| 37 | reserves some amount of physical eraseblocks to handle new bad |
| 38 | eraseblocks. For example, if a flash physical eraseblock becomes bad, |
| 39 | UBI uses these reserved physical eraseblocks to relocate the bad one. |
| 40 | This option specifies how many physical eraseblocks will be reserved |
| 41 | for bad eraseblock handling (percents of total number of good flash |
| 42 | eraseblocks). If the underlying flash does not admit of bad |
| 43 | eraseblocks (e.g. NOR flash), this value is ignored and nothing is |
| 44 | reserved. Leave the default value if unsure. |

| 50 | help |
| 51 | This option enables MTD devices emulation on top of UBI volumes: for |
| 52 | each UBI volumes an MTD device is created, and all I/O to this MTD |
| 53 | device is redirected to the UBI volume. This is handy to make |
| 54 | MTD-oriented software (like JFFS2) work on top of UBI. Do not enable |
| 55 | this if no legacy software will be used. |
