From 5fb51d4516d27dcf72d2a1592abba922259ec8e5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: =?utf8?q?Bj=C3=B8rn=20Mork?= Date: Sat, 20 Mar 2021 11:48:26 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] ipq806x: sysupgrade: drop unnecessary UBI to UBI logic MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit The purpose of this code seems to be to avoid issues caused by partially overwriting an existing UBI partition, where some of the erase counters would be reset but not the unmodified ones. This problem has been solved in a more generic way by the UBI EOF marker. This ensures that any old PEBs after the marker are properly initialized. It is therefore unnecessary to erase the whole partition before flashing a new OpenWrt factory image.
