📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

💅 ubi_eba_read_leb_sg(9) 💅

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual — this is the page for ubi_eba_read_leb_sg(9), and yes it's a kernel function, yes it ends in (9), no we are not scared of it 💖

✨ NAME ✨

ubi_eba_read_leb_sg — read data into a scatter gather list. that's it, that's the whole vibe 🎀

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

int ubi_eba_read_leb_sg (struct ubi_device *ubi , struct ubi_volume *vol
, struct ubi_sgl *sgl , int lnum , int offset , int len , int check );

like look at that signature. seven args. she's got range 💅

🌸 ARGUMENTS 🌸

  • ubi — the UBI device description object. the whole device, the big picture, main character energy 👑
  • vol — the volume description object. which volume we're messing with 🎀
  • sgl — the UBI scatter gather list where the read data goes. this is the destination, this is where the goods land 🫶
  • lnum — logical eraseblock number. which LEB we're reading from, iykyk ✨
  • offset — offset from where to read. how far into it we start digging 🔥
  • len — how many bytes to read. the exact amount, no cap 💀
  • check — data CRC check flag. like, do we verify or do we just vibe 🙈

💜 DESCRIPTION 💜

okay so here's the tea: this function works exactly like ubi_eba_read_leb. literally exactly, same energy, same behaviour, no notes ✨

the one glow-up? instead of storing the read data into a buffer, it writes to an UBI scatter gather list 🌈 that's the whole difference. buffer? no. scatter gather list? yes bestie, we're fancy now 💅

so if you already know ubi_eba_read_leb, you already know her. she just has a different destination 🦋

⭐ SEE ALSO ⭐

the whole friend group, fr fr — kernel file ./drivers/mtd/ubi/eba.c plus:

like. that's the whole roster. read them, love them, cite them in your bug report 🫶

quick reminder bestie: every literal — every flag, path, name and (9) — stayed exactly as written. the vibe is new, the facts are untouched 💖

and that's a wrap!! this page lives in ./drivers/mtd/ubi and it's dated October 2026 — so like, future icon behaviour honestly 🌟 mwah, go read some eraseblocks, ily, bye 🎀💜
