STRUCT UBI_FM_EC(9)

πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

πŸ’– struct ubi_fm_ec(9) πŸ’–

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual β€” this is the page for struct ubi_fm_ec, and it's literally the tiny little cutie that stores the erase counter of a PEB. that's it. that's the whole vibe. it's small, it's iconic, it knows its purpose. πŸŽ€


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

here's the whole thing, no cap β€” it's just two fields and a dream:

struct ubi_fm_ec {
    __be32 pnum;
    __be32 ec;
 };

like, look at her. minimal. main character energy. πŸ’…


🌸 Members 🌸

  • pnum β€” the PEB number. which PEB are we talking about? this one, bestie. 🫢
  • ec β€” the ec of this PEB. yes, exactly that ec. the erase counter. that's the whole job. ✨
