This is part of a multipart patch to allow UBI to force the erasure of
particular logical eraseblock numbers. In this patch, the logical erase block
number is added to ubi_work data structure, and it is also passed as a
parameter to schedule erase to set it appropriately. Whenever ubi_wl_put_peb
is called, the lnum is also passed to be forwarded to schedule erase. Later,
a new ubi_sync_lnum will be added to execute immediately all work related to
that lnum.
This was tested by observing the recorded lnum value whenever an eraseblock
was erased (i.e., the work done). UBIFS was changed to repeat leb_change
calls 10 times, integck was executed, and the sequence of 10 equal lnums
with varying pnums was observed.
This is reposted after rebasing.

Joel, am sorry for nitpicking again, but could you please put the "lnum"
argument between "ubi" and "lnum" instead? Just feels more natural.
Otherwise the patch is OK. Thanks!

Err, but you also need volume ID, because there may be several volumes
with the same lnum.

Hmm, I've just checked your patch with Aiaiai and it complains about
your changes - and the complaints are correct - you introduce a bug.

For vol_id, its straightforward everywhere except: ubi_wl_init_scan()
where scheduling erase on the:
struct ubi_scan_leb *seb
appears to lack access to the volume id. Should we add vol_id to
ubi_scan_leb, and in ubi_scan() run:
ubi_rb_for_each_entry(rb1, sv, &si->volumes, rb) {
ubi_rb_for_each_entry(rb2, seb, &sv->root, u.rb)
seb->vol_id = sv->vol_id;
Or is there a simpler way?
Cheers,
Joel Reardon

I guess yes. Add this field as a separate patch please.
