mtd: mtdcore: add debugfs nodes for querying the flash name and id

2019-08-29T07:36:47Z

Currently, we don't have vfs nodes for querying the underlying flash name and flash id. This information is important especially when we want to know the flash detail of the defective system. In order to support the query, we add mtd_debugfs_populate() to create two debugfs nodes (ie. partname and partid). The upper driver can assign the pointer to partname and partid before calling mtd_device_register(). Signed-off-by: Zhuohao Lee Reviewed-by: Boris Brezillon Signed-off-by: Tudor Ambarus

mtd: Add flag to indicate panic_write

2019-06-27T18:06:40Z

Added a flag to indicate a panic_write so that low level drivers can use it to take required action where applicable, to ensure oops data gets written to assigned mtd device. Signed-off-by: Kamal Dasu Signed-off-by: Miquel Raynal

Merge tag 'char-misc-4.21-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/char-misc

2018-12-29T04:54:57Z

Pull char/misc driver updates from Greg KH: "Here is the big set of char and misc driver patches for 4.21-rc1. Lots of different types of driver things in here, as this tree seems to be the "collection of various driver subsystems not big enough to have their own git tree" lately. Anyway, some highlights of the changes in here: - binderfs: is it a rule that all driver subsystems will eventually grow to have their own filesystem? Binder now has one to handle the use of it in containerized systems. This was discussed at the Plumbers conference a few months ago and knocked into mergable shape very fast by Christian Brauner. Who also has signed up to be another binder maintainer, showing a distinct lack of good judgement :) - binder updates and fixes - mei driver updates - fpga driver updates and additions - thunderbolt driver updates - soundwire driver updates - extcon driver updates - nvmem driver updates - hyper-v driver updates - coresight driver updates - pvpanic driver additions and reworking for more device support - lp driver updates. Yes really, it's _finally_ moved to the proper parallal port driver model, something I never thought I would see happen. Good stuff. - other tiny driver updates and fixes.

mtd: add support for reading MTD devices via the nvmem API

2018-12-06T14:48:54Z

Allow drivers that use the nvmem API to read data stored on MTD devices. For this the mtd devices are registered as read-only NVMEM providers. We don't support device tree systems for now. Signed-off-by: Alban Bedel [Bartosz: - include linux/nvmem-provider.h - set the name of the nvmem provider - set no_of_node to true in nvmem_config - don't check the return value of nvmem_unregister() - it cannot fail - tweaked the commit message] Signed-off-by: Bartosz Golaszewski Acked-by: Boris Brezillon Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

mtd: keep original flags for every struct mtd_info

2018-12-02T08:29:16Z

When allocating a new partition mtd subsystem runs internal tests in the allocate_partition(). They may result in modifying specified flags (e.g. dropping some /features/ like write access). Those constraints don't have to be necessary true for subpartitions. It may happen parent partition isn't block aligned (effectively disabling write access) while subpartition may fit blocks nicely. In such case all checks should be run again (starting with original flags value). Signed-off-by: Rafał Miłecki Signed-off-by: Boris Brezillon

mtd: fix mtd_oobavail() incoherent returned value

2018-12-02T08:20:39Z

mtd_oobavail() returns either mtd->oovabail or mtd->oobsize. Both values are unsigned 32-bit entities, so there is no reason to pretend returning a signed one. Signed-off-by: Miquel Raynal Signed-off-by: Boris Brezillon

mtd: adapt misleading comment in mtd_oob_ops structure

2018-07-19T21:12:09Z

A comment in the kernel doc of the mtd_oob_ops structure tells that it is not possible to write more than one page with OOB. This is actually true for only a few MTD devices like 'onenand' but it is definitely not a general limitation. While this would benefit to be handled elsewhere either by the MTD layer or by the limited drivers, let's update this comment to reflect the reality.

mtd: Stop updating erase_info->state and calling mtd_erase_callback()

2018-03-21T08:50:56Z

MTD users are no longer checking erase_info->state to determine if the erase operation failed or succeeded. Moreover, mtd_erase_callback() is now a NOP. We can safely get rid of all mtd_erase_callback() calls and all erase_info->state assignments. While at it, get rid of the erase_info->state field, all MTD_ERASE_XXX definitions and the mtd_erase_callback() function.

mtd: Unconditionally update ->fail_addr and ->addr in part_erase()

2018-03-15T17:22:26Z

->fail_addr and ->addr can be updated no matter the result of parent->_erase(), we just need to remove the code doing the same thing in mtd_erase_callback() to avoid adjusting those fields twice. Note that this can be done because all MTD users have been converted to not pass an erase_info->callback() and are thus only taking the ->addr_fail and ->addr fields into account after part_erase() has returned. While we're at it, get rid of the erase_info->mtd field which was only needed to let mtd_erase_callback() get the partition device back. Signed-off-by: Boris Brezillon Reviewed-by: Richard Weinberger
