Richard, am I wrong? Yes. UBIFS has the machinery but uses it differently. When it faces ECC errors while replying the journal it can recover good data from the LEB. It assumes that an interrupted write leads always to ECC errors. >> >> The last page of a block is inspected and allowed to be corrupted. > > Actually, it's not really about corrupted pages, it's about pages that > might become unreadable after a few reads. As stated before, it assumes an ECC error from an interrupted read. We could automatically re-write everything in UBIFS that was written last but we don't have this information for data UBI itself wrote since UBI has no journal. If unstable bit can be triggered with current systems we can think of a clever trick to deal with that. So far nobody was able to show me the problem. Thanks, //richard
