[PATCH 1/2] UBI: Add ubi_open_volume_path()

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Add an ubi_open_volume_path(path, mode) function which works like
open_bdev_exclusive(path, mode, ...) where path is the special file
representing the UBI volume, typically /dev/ubi0_0.
