/**
* struct ubi_volume_info - UBI volume description data structure.
* @vol_id: volume ID
* @ubi_num: UBI device number this volume belongs to
* @size: how many physical eraseblocks are reserved for this volume
* @used_bytes: how many bytes of data this volume contains
* @used_ebs: how many physical eraseblocks of this volume actually contain any
* data
* @vol_type: volume type (%UBI_DYNAMIC_VOLUME or %UBI_STATIC_VOLUME)
* @corrupted: non-zero if the volume is corrupted (static volumes only)
* @upd_marker: non-zero if the volume has update marker set
* @alignment: volume alignment
* @usable_leb_size: how many bytes are available in logical eraseblocks of
* this volume
* @name_len: volume name length
* @name: volume name
* @cdev: UBI volume character device major and minor numbers
*
* The @corrupted flag is only relevant to static volumes and is always zero
* for dynamic ones. This is because UBI does not care about dynamic volume
* data protection and only cares about protecting static volume data.
*
* The @upd_marker flag is set if the volume update operation was interrupted.
* Before touching the volume data during the update operation, UBI first sets
* the update marker flag for this volume. If the volume update operation was
* further interrupted, the update marker indicates this. If the update marker
* is set, the contents of the volume is certainly damaged and a new volume
* update operation has to be started.
*
* To put it differently, @corrupted and @upd_marker fields have different
* semantics:
* o the @corrupted flag means that this static volume is corrupted for some
* reasons, but not because an interrupted volume update
* o the @upd_marker field means that the volume is damaged because of an
* interrupted update operation.
*
* I.e., the @corrupted flag is never set if the @upd_marker flag is set.
*
* The @used_bytes and @used_ebs fields are only really needed for static
* volumes and contain the number of bytes stored in this static volume and how
* many eraseblock this data occupies. In case of dynamic volumes, the
* @used_bytes field is equivalent to @size*@usable_leb_size, and the @used_ebs
* field is equivalent to @size.
*
* In general, logical eraseblock size is a property of the UBI device, not
* of the UBI volume. Indeed, the logical eraseblock size depends on the
* physical eraseblock size and on how much bytes UBI headers consume. But
* because of the volume alignment (@alignment), the usable size of logical
* eraseblocks if a volume may be less. The following equation is true:
* @usable_leb_size = LEB size - (LEB size mod @alignment),
* where LEB size is the logical eraseblock size defined by the UBI device.
*
* The alignment is multiple to the minimal flash input/output unit size or %1
* if all the available space is used.
*
* To put this differently, alignment may be considered is a way to change
* volume logical eraseblock sizes.
