2013-04-05mtd: add 'const' qualifier to a couple of register functionsArtem Bityutskiy1-1/+1
'mtd_device_parse_register()' and 'parse_mtd_partitions()' functions accept a an array of character pointers. These functions modify neither the pointers nor the characters they point to. The characters are actually names of the MTD parsers. At the moment, the argument type is 'const char **', which means that only the names of the parsers are constant. Let's turn the argument type into 'const char * const *', which means that both names and the pointers which point to them are constant.

2012-09-29mtd: mtdpart: break it as soon as we parse out the partitionsHuang Shijie1-1/+4
We may cause a memory leak when the @types has more then one parser. Take the `default_mtd_part_types` for example. The default_mtd_part_types has two parsers now: `cmdlinepart` and `ofpart`. Assume the following case: The kernel command line sets the partitions like: #gpmi-nand:20m(boot),20m(kernel),1g(rootfs),-(user) But the devicetree file(such as arch/arm/boot/dts/imx28-evk.dts) also sets the same partitions as the kernel command line does. In the current code, the partitions parsed out by the `ofpart` will overwrite the @pparts which has already set by the `cmdlinepart` parser, and the the partitions parsed out by the `cmdlinepart` is missed. A memory leak occurs. So we should break the code as soon as we parse out the partitions, In actually, this patch makes a priority order between the parsers. If one parser has already parsed out the partitions successfully, it's no need to use another parser anymore.

2012-05-13mtd: driver _read() returns max_bitflips; mtd_read() returns -EUCLEANMike Dunn1-6/+6
The drivers' _read() method, absent an error, returns a non-negative integer indicating the maximum number of bit errors that were corrected in any one region comprising an ecc step. MTD returns -EUCLEAN if this is >= bitflip_threshold, 0 otherwise. If bitflip_threshold is zero, the comparison is not made since these devices lack ECC and always return zero in the non-error case (thanks Brian)¹. Note that this is a subtle change to the driver interface. This and the preceding patches in this set were tested with ubi on top of the nandsim and docg4 devices, running the ubi test io_basic from mtd-utils. ¹ http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-mtd/2012-March/040468.html Signed-off-by: Mike Dunn <mikedunn@newsguy.com> Acked-by: Robert Jarzmik <robert.jarzmik@free.fr> Acked-by: Brian Norris <computersforpeace@gmail.com> Ivan Djelic <ivan.djelic@parrot.com> Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <artem.bityutskiy@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: David Woodhouse <David.Woodhouse@intel.com>
2012-05-13mtd: bitflip_threshold added to mtd_info and sysfsMike Dunn1-0/+2
An element 'bitflip_threshold' is added to struct mtd_info, and also exposed as a read/write variable in sysfs. This will be used to determine whether or not mtd_read() returns -EUCLEAN or 0 (absent a hard error). If the driver leaves it as zero, mtd will set it to a default value of ecc_strength. This v2 adds the line that propagates bitflip_threshold from the master to the partitions - thanks Ivan¹. ¹ http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-mtd/2012-April/040900.html Signed-off-by: Mike Dunn <mikedunn@newsguy.com> Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <artem.bityutskiy@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: David Woodhouse <David.Woodhouse@intel.com>
2012-03-27mtd: flash drivers set ecc strengthMike Dunn1-0/+1
Flash device drivers initialize 'ecc_strength' in struct mtd_info, which is the maximum number of bit errors that can be corrected in one writesize region. Drivers using the nand interface intitialize 'strength' in struct nand_ecc_ctrl, which is the maximum number of bit errors that can be corrected in one ecc step. Nand infrastructure code translates this to 'ecc_strength'. Also for nand drivers, the nand infrastructure code sets ecc.strength for ecc modes NAND_ECC_SOFT, NAND_ECC_SOFT_BCH, and NAND_ECC_NONE. It is set in the driver for all other modes.

2012-03-27mtd: fix partition wrapper functionsMike Dunn1-27/+33
This patch reverts a change that may have been mistakenly included with the set of patches that introduced the new mtd api entry functions. Or perhaps I am mistaken :) The problem is in the partition wrapper functions, where the calls to the driver methods were replaced with calls to the new mtd api functions. This causes the api function to be called a second time, further down the call stack. This is not only unnecessary and redundant - because the sanity checking code and (more restrictive) bounds checks for the partition were done in the first call - but is potentially problematic and confusing. For example, the call stack for a call to mtd_read() on a partitioned device currently looks like this: mtd_read() gets struct mtd_info for the partition | +-> part_read() via the pointer assigned when the partition was created | +->mtd_read() this time gets struct mtd_info for the master | +->xyz_driver_read() via the pointer asigned by the driver It seems that this can cause a variety of problems. For example, if you want to add code to the api function that tests a value in mtd_info that is relevant only to the partition. Or (in my case) you want the driver to return a value that may be different from that returned by the mtd api function. This patch eliminates the second call to the mtd api function. It was tested on the docg4 nand driver with a subset of the api functions, but I inspected the rest and don't see any problems.

2012-03-27mtd: remove R/O checking duplicationArtem Bityutskiy1-13/+1

2012-03-27mtd: do not duplicate length and offset checks in driversArtem Bityutskiy1-29/+1
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.

2012-03-27mtd: return error code from mtd_unpointArtem Bityutskiy1-2/+2
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()'.

2012-03-27mtd: add leading underscore to all mtd functionsArtem Bityutskiy1-45/+46
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.

2012-01-09mtd: introduce mtd_erase interfaceArtem Bityutskiy1-1/+1
This patch is part of a patch-set which changes the MTD interface from 'mtd->func()' form to 'mtd_func()' form. We need this because we want to add common code to to all drivers in the mtd core level, which is impossible with the current interface when MTD clients call driver functions like 'read()' or 'write()' directly. At this point we just introduce a new inline wrapper function, but later some of them are expected to gain more code. E.g., the input parameters check should be moved to the wrappers rather than be duplicated at many drivers. This particular patch introduced the 'mtd_erase()' interface. The following patches add all the other interfaces one by one. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <artem.bityutskiy@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: David Woodhouse <David.Woodhouse@intel.com>

2011-05-25mtd: be silent when mtd partition parser cannot be foundArtem Bityutskiy1-4/+1
Currently when we register partitions in 'parse_mtd_partitions()' we accept the list of parsers we should try. And if one of the parsers was not found we print a message. Well, first of all this whole idea is bad - look at how many 'part_probes' and 'part_probe_types' variables we have - nearly every driver defines one. Instead, we should just go through all registered parsers all the time. But this needs to be worked on separately. This patch makes life of MTD partitions' users a bit simpler and allows them to safely request parsers which have not been registered - 'parse_mtd_partitions()' will not print a "not available" message in this case. The point is that drivers do not have to do things like this any longer: static const char *part_probe_types[] = { "cmdlinepart", "RedBoot", "afs", NULL }; but can simply do like this: static const char *part_probe_types[] = { "cmdlinepart", "RedBoot", "afs", NULL }; Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com> Signed-off-by: David Woodhouse <David.Woodhouse@intel.com>
