Bad block Management Patch

Bad block Management Patch

[Anurag Raghavan (RBEI/ETW11)]

Hi All,


I am using kernel version-3.0.35
I am facing uncorrectable ECC error in ubifs. I am suspecting, it is because of bad blocks are not properly handled in my driver.
Is there any patches available to handle the bad block in the specified version...


Best regards

That is very very old and obsolete and insecure.  I strongly recommend
you update to a modern and maintained kernel version in order to get any
help from the community, and to ensure that your device actually works
properly.

If you are stuck at this kernel version because it is supported by a
vendor, please contact them for support as you are paying them, and they
are the only ones that can help you out.

Good luck!

Are you sure your hardware isn't breaking down?

Also, can you try the 4.9 kernel tree?  Lots of ubifs changes have
happened since 3.0 was released, over 5 years ago...

thanks,
