Split lines nicer - you have 79 characters per line, use the same starting '/*' as other UBI comments do. Just glance at the other UBI comments. BTW, the commit message has somewhat unclean line splitting as well. > + ubi_err("Error writing volume table copy #%d", copy+1); UBI prints should not start with capital letters, because the printing macros add prefixes.

Hi, This patch fixes the consistency problem during volume update. UBI writes two copies of vtbl during volume update. If the first copy was successfully written, and second copy fails, UBI returns failure. But UBI recovers updated vtbl during next mount. So it should have returned success. It should go to read only mode to avoid further failures. Signed-off-by: Brijesh Singh <brij.singh@samsung.com> ---
