-Here the list of the currently implemented UBI commands:
|
|
|
|
|
|
+UBI support in U-Boot is broken down into five separate commands.
|
|
|
|
+The first is the ubi command, which has six subcommands:
|
|
|
|
|
|
=> help ubi
|
|
=> help ubi
|
|
ubi - ubi commands

|
+Next, the ubifsmount command allows you to access filesystems on the
|
|
|
|
+UBI partition which has been attached with the ubi part command:
|
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
|
+=> help ubifsmount
|
|
|
|
+ubifsmount - mount UBIFS volume
|
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
|
+Usage:
|
|
|
|
+ubifsmount <volume-name>
|
|
|
|
+ - mount 'volume-name' volume
|
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
|
+For example:
|
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
|
+=> ubifsmount ubi0:recovery
|
|
|
|
+UBIFS: mounted UBI device 0, volume 0, name "recovery"
|
|
|
|
+UBIFS: mounted read-only
|
|
|
|
+UBIFS: file system size: 46473216 bytes (45384 KiB, 44 MiB, 366 LEBs)
|
|
|
|
+UBIFS: journal size: 6348800 bytes (6200 KiB, 6 MiB, 50 LEBs)
|
|
|
|
+UBIFS: media format: w4/r0 (latest is w4/r0)
|
|
|
|
+UBIFS: default compressor: LZO
|
|
|
|
+UBIFS: reserved for root: 0 bytes (0 KiB)
|
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
|
+Note that unlike Linux, U-Boot can only have one active UBI partition
|
|
|
|
+at a time, which can be referred to as ubi0, and must be supplied along
|
|
|
|
+with the name of the filesystem you are mounting.
|
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
|
+Once a UBI filesystem has been mounted, the ubifsls command allows you
|
|
|
|
+to list the contents of a directory in the filesystem:
|
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
|
+=> help ubifsls
|
|
|
|
+ubifsls - list files in a directory
|
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
|
+Usage:
|
|
|
|
+ubifsls [directory]
|
|
|
|
+ - list files in a 'directory' (default '/')
|
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
|
+For example:
|
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
|
+=> ubifsls
|
|
|
|
+ 17442 Thu Jan 01 02:57:38 1970 imx28-evk.dtb
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
|
+And the ubifsload command allows you to load a file from a UBI
|
|
|
|
+filesystem:
|
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
|
+=> help ubifsload
|
|
|
|
+ubifsload - load file from an UBIFS filesystem
|
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
|
+Usage:
|
|
|
|
+ubifsload <addr> <filename> [bytes]
|
|
|
|
+ - load file 'filename' to address 'addr'
|
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
|
+For example:
|
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
|
+=> ubifsload ${loadaddr} zImage
|
|
|
|
+Loading file 'zImage' to addr 0x42000000 with size 2998146 (0x002dbf82)...
|
|
|
|
+Done
|
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
|
+Finally, you can unmount the UBI filesystem with the ubifsumount
|
|
|
|
+command:
|
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
|
+=> help ubifsumount
|
|
|
|
+ubifsumount - unmount UBIFS volume
|
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
|
+Usage:
|
|
|
|
+ubifsumount - unmount current volume
|
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
|
+For example:
|
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
|
+=> ubifsumount
|
|
|
|
+Unmounting UBIFS volume recovery!
