In many places in drivers we verify for the zero length, but this is very inconsistent across drivers. This is obviously the right thing to do, though. This patch moves the check to the MTD API functions instead and removes a lot of duplication.

Some MTD drivers return -EINVAL if the 'phys' parameter is not NULL, trying to convey that they cannot return the physical address. However, this is not very logical because they still can return the virtual address ('virt'). But some drivers (lpddr) just ignore the 'phys' parameter instead, which is a more logical thing to do. Let's harmonize this and: 1. Always initialize 'virt' and 'phys' to 'NULL' in 'mtd_point()'. 2. Do not return an error if the physical address cannot be found. So as a result, all drivers will set 'phys' to 'NULL' if it is not supported. None of the 'mtd_point()' users use 'phys' anyway, so this should not break anything. I guess we could also just delete this parameter later. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <artem.bityutskiy@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: David Woodhouse <David.Woodhouse@intel.com>

The MTD API function now zero the 'retlen' parameter before calling the driver's method — do not do this again in drivers. This removes duplicated '*retlen = 0' assignent from the following methods: 'mtd_point()' 'mtd_read()' 'mtd_write()' 'mtd_writev()' 'mtd_panic_write()' Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <artem.bityutskiy@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: David Woodhouse <David.Woodhouse@intel.com>

We already verify that offset and length are within the MTD device size in the MTD API functions. Let's remove the duplicated checks in drivers. This patch only affects the following API's: 'mtd_erase()' 'mtd_point()' 'mtd_unpoint()' 'mtd_get_unmapped_area()' 'mtd_read()' 'mtd_write()' 'mtd_panic_write()' 'mtd_lock()' 'mtd_unlock()' 'mtd_is_locked()' 'mtd_block_isbad()' 'mtd_block_markbad()' This patch adds a bit of noise by removing too sparse empty lines, but this is not too bad.

Add verification of the offset and length to MTD API functions and verify that MTD device offset and length are within MTD device size. The modified API functions are: 'mtd_erase()' 'mtd_point()' 'mtd_unpoint()' 'mtd_get_unmapped_area()' 'mtd_read()' 'mtd_write()' 'mtd_panic_write()' 'mtd_lock()' 'mtd_unlock()' 'mtd_is_locked()' 'mtd_block_isbad()' 'mtd_block_markbad()' This patch also uninlines these functions and exports in mtdcore.c because they are not performance-critical and do not have to be inlined.

The 'mtd_unpoint()' API function should be able to return an error code because it may fail if you specify incorrect offset. This patch changes this MTD API function and amends all the drivers correspondingly. Also return '-EOPNOTSUPP' from 'mtd_unpoint()' when the '->unpoint()' method is undefined. We do not really need this currently, but this just makes sense to be consistent with 'mtd_point()'.

Currently, the flash-based BBT implementation writes bad block data only to its flash-based table and not to the OOB marker area. Then, as new bad blocks are marked over time, the OOB markers become incomplete and the flash-based table becomes the only source of current bad block information. This becomes an obvious problem when, for example: * bootloader cannot read the flash-based BBT format * BBT is corrupted and the flash must be rescanned for bad blocks; we want to remember bad blocks that were marked from Linux So to keep the bad block markers in sync with the flash-based BBT, this patch changes the default so that we write bad block markers to the proper OOB area on each block in addition to flash-based BBT. Comments are updated, expanded, and/or relocated as necessary. The new flash-based BBT procedure for marking bad blocks: (1) erase the affected block, to allow OOB marker to be written cleanly (2) update in-memory BBT (3) write bad block marker to OOB area of affected block (4) update flash-based BBT Note that we retain the first error encountered in (3) or (4), finish the procedures, and dump the error in the end. This should handle power cuts gracefully enough. (1) and (2) are mostly harmless (note that (1) will not erase an already-recognized bad block). The OOB and BBT may be "out of sync" if we experience power loss bewteen (3) and (4), but we can reasonably expect that on next boot, subsequent I/O operations will discover that the block should be marked bad again, thus re-syncing the OOB and BBT. Note that this is a change from the previous default flash-based BBT behavior. If your system cannot support writing bad block markers to OOB, use the new NAND_BBT_NO_OOB_BBM option (in combination with NAND_BBT_USE_FLASH and NAND_BBT_NO_OOB).

The main 'mtd_block_markbad()' function returns -EOPNOTSUPP if the '->block_markbad' method is undefined, and mtdconcat should do the same. Fix this by simply removing the 'mtd_can_have_bb()' because it is not really necessary. It could be treated as an optimization, but this function is expected to be used so rarely that it does not matter.

The writebufsize concept was introduce by commit "0e4ca7e5 mtd: add writebufsize field to mtd_info struct" and it represents the maximum amount of data the device writes to the media at a time. This is an important parameter for UBIFS which is used during recovery and which basically defines how big a corruption caused by a power cut can be. Set writebufsize to the flash page size because it is the maximum amount of data it writes at a time.

This patch renames all MTD functions by adding a "_" prefix: mtd->erase -> mtd->_erase mtd->read_oob -> mtd->_read_oob ... The reason is that we are re-working the MTD API and from now on it is an error to use MTD function pointers directly - we have a corresponding API call for every pointer. By adding a leading "_" we achieve the following: 1. Make sure we convert every direct pointer users 2. A leading "_" suggests that this interface is internal and it becomes less likely that people will use them directly 3. Make sure all the out-of-tree modules stop compiling and the owners spot the big API change and amend them.

There were a few instances of the old MTD interface remaining for JFFS2. We fix one error that shows up (only when CONFIG_JFFS2_FS_WRITEBUFFER is not defined) like this: fs/jffs2/read.c: In function 'jffs2_read_dnode': fs/jffs2/read.c:36:8: error: 'struct mtd_info' has no member named 'read' fs/jffs2/read.c:112:8: error: 'struct mtd_info' has no member named 'read' ... We also simply remove two macros that are not in use, were not updated to the new MTD interface, and don't even utilize the old interface properly. (That means they weren't used since commit 8593fbc6, year 2006; almost 6 years ago, for those who don't want to do the math) Reported-by: Randy Dunlap <rdunlap@xenotime.net> Signed-off-by: Brian Norris <computersforpeace@gmail.com> Acked-by: Randy Dunlap <rdunlap@xenotime.net> Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <artem.bityutskiy@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: David Woodhouse <David.Woodhouse@intel.com>

This patch adds a driver for the M-Sys / Sandisk diskonchip G4 nand flash found in various smartphones and PDAs, among them the Palm Treo680, HTC Prophet and Wizard, Toshiba Portege G900, Asus P526, and O2 XDA Zinc. It was tested on the Treo 680, but should work generically. Since v3, this patch adds power management functions, a scan of the factory bad block table during initialization, several fixes, and more extensive testing. Also, the platform data header file, which only contained partitioning information, was removed. Command-line partitioning can be used, at least until an mtd parser is written for the saftl format with which these chips are shipped.

As nand_default_block_markbad() is becoming more complex, it helps to have code appear only in its relevant codepath(s). Here, the calculation of `ofs' based on NAND_BBT_SCANLASTPAGE is only useful on paths where we write bad block markers to OOB. We move the condition/calculation closer to the `write' operation and update the comment to more correctly describe the operation. The variable `wr_ofs' is also used to help isolate our calculation of the "write" offset from the usage of `ofs' to represent the eraseblock offset. This will become useful when we reorder operations in the next patch. This patch should make no functional change.

SPEAr platforms (spear3xx/spear6xx/spear13xx) provide SMI (Serial Memory Interface) controller to access serial NOR flash. SMI provides a simple interface for SPI/serial NOR flashes and has certain inbuilt commands and features to support these flashes easily. It also makes it possible to map an address range in order to directly access (read/write) the SNOR over address bus. This patch intends to provide serial nor driver support for spear platforms which are accessed through SMI.
