27 * Factors such as compression, wasted space at the ends of LEBs, space in other
28 * journal heads, the effect of updates on the index, and so on, make it

143 * This function is called when an operation cannot be budgeted because there
144 * is supposedly no free space. But in most cases there is some free space:
145 * o budgeting is pessimistic, so it always budgets more than it is actually
146 * needed, so shrinking the liability is one way to make free space - the
147 * cached data will take less space then it was budgeted for;
148 * o GC may turn some dark space into free space (budgeting treats dark space
149 * as not available);
150 * o commit may free some LEB, i.e., turn freeable LEBs into free LEBs.
152 * So this function tries to do the above. Returns %-EAGAIN if some free space
153 * was presumably made and the caller has to re-try budgeting the operation.
154 * Returns %-ENOSPC if it couldn't do more free space, and other negative error

313 * When budgeting index space, UBIFS reserves thrice as many LEBs as the index

321 * o @c->lst.idx_lebs is the number of LEBs the index currently uses. It might
322 * be large, because UBIFS does not do any index consolidation as long as
323 * there is free space. IOW, the index may take a lot of LEBs, but the LEBs
324 * will contain a lot of dirt.
325 * o @c->min_idx_lebs is the number of LEBS the index presumably takes. IOW,
326 * the index may be consolidated to take up to @c->min_idx_lebs LEBs.

650 * (e.g., via the 'statfs()' call) reports that it has N bytes available, they

652 * node and it has to write indexing nodes as well. This introduces additional
653 * overhead, and UBIFS has to report slightly less free space to meet the above
654 * expectations.
656 * This function assumes free space is made up of uncompressed data nodes and
657 * full index nodes (one per data node, tripled because we always allow enough
658 * space to write the index thrice).
660 * Note, the calculation is pessimistic, which means that most of the time
661 * UBIFS reports less space than it actually has.

695 * alignment, wastage at the end of LEBs, etc), it cannot report real amount of
696 * free flash space it has (well, because not all dirty space is reclaimable,
697 * UBIFS does not actually know the real amount). If UBIFS did so, it would
698 * bread user expectations about what free space is. Users seem to accustomed
699 * to assume that if the file-system reports N bytes of free space, they would
700 * be able to fit a file of N bytes to the FS. This almost works for
701 * traditional file-systems, because they have way less overhead than UBIFS.
702 * So, to keep users happy, UBIFS tries to take the overhead into account.
