2006-05-30[MTD] NAND Expose the new raw mode function and status info to userspaceThomas Gleixner
The raw read/write access to NAND (without ECC) has been changed in the NAND rework. Expose the new way - setting the file mode via ioctl - to userspace. Also allow to read out the ecc statistics information so userspace tools can see that bitflips happened and whether errors where correctable or not. Also expose the number of bad blocks for the partition, so nandwrite can check if the data fits into the parition before writing to it. Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
2006-05-29[MTD] Rework the out of band handling completelyThomas Gleixner
Hopefully the last iteration on this! The handling of out of band data on NAND was accompanied by tons of fruitless discussions and halfarsed patches to make it work for a particular problem. Sufficiently annoyed by I all those "I know it better" mails and the resonable amount of discarded "it solves my problem" patches, I finally decided to go for the big rework. After removing the _ecc variants of mtd read/write functions the solution to satisfy the various requirements was to refactor the read/write _oob functions in mtd. The major change is that read/write_oob now takes a pointer to an operation descriptor structure "struct mtd_oob_ops".instead of having a function with at least seven arguments. read/write_oob which should probably renamed to a more descriptive name, can do the following tasks: - read/write out of band data - read/write data content and out of band data - read/write raw data content and out of band data (ecc disabled) struct mtd_oob_ops has a mode field, which determines the oob handling mode. Aside of the MTD_OOB_RAW mode, which is intended to be especially for diagnostic purposes and some internal functions e.g. bad block table creation, the other two modes are for mtd clients: MTD_OOB_PLACE puts/gets the given oob data exactly to/from the place which is described by the ooboffs and ooblen fields of the mtd_oob_ops strcuture. It's up to the caller to make sure that the byte positions are not used by the ECC placement algorithms. MTD_OOB_AUTO puts/gets the given oob data automaticaly to/from the places in the out of band area which are described by the oobfree tuples in the ecclayout data structre which is associated to the devicee. The decision whether data plus oob or oob only handling is done depends on the setting of the datbuf member of the data structure. When datbuf == NULL then the internal read/write_oob functions are selected, otherwise the read/write data routines are invoked. Tested on a few platforms with all variants. Please be aware of possible regressions for your particular device / application scenario Disclaimer: Any whining will be ignored from those who just contributed "hot air blurb" and never sat down to tackle the underlying problem of the mess in the NAND driver grown over time and the big chunk of work to fix up the existing users. The problem was not the holiness of the existing MTD interfaces. The problems was the lack of time to go for the big overhaul. It's easy to add more mess to the existing one, but it takes alot of effort to go for a real solution. Improvements and bugfixes are welcome! Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
2006-05-29[MTD] Remove silly MTD_WRITE/READ macrosThomas Gleixner

2006-05-29[MTD] NAND Replace oobinfo by ecclayoutThomas Gleixner
The nand_oobinfo structure is not fitting the newer error correction demands anymore. Replace it by struct nand_ecclayout and fixup the users all over the place. Keep the nand_oobinfo based ioctl for user space compability reasons. Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
2006-05-29[MTD] NAND Consolidate oobinfo handlingThomas Gleixner
The info structure for out of band data was copied into the mtd structure. Make it a pointer and remove the ability to set it from userspace. The position of ecc bytes is defined by the hardware and should not be changed by software. Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>

2006-05-25[MTD] NAND Add read/write function pointers to struct nand_ecc_ctrlThomas Gleixner
Add read/write function pointers to struct nand_ecc_ctrl to prepare the modulaization of nand_read/write functions. The current implementation handles every type of ecc mode software/hardware and all kinds of strange ecc placement schemes in one switch/if construct. Thats too complex to maintain and too inflexible to expand. Modularization will also shorten the code pathes of the read/write functions. Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
2006-05-25[MTD] Add ECC statistics to struct mtd_infoThomas Gleixner

2006-05-25[MTD] NAND Introduce NAND_NO_READRDY optionThomas Gleixner
The nand driver has a superflous read ready / command delay in the read functions. This was added to handle chips which have an automatic read forward. Newer chips do not have this functionality anymore. Add this option to avoid the delay / I/O operation. Mark all large page chips with the new option flag.

2006-05-23[MTD] NAND remove write_byte/word function from nand_chipThomas Gleixner

2006-05-23[MTD] Refactor NAND hwcontrol to cmd_ctrlThomas Gleixner
The hwcontrol function enforced a step by step state machine for any kind of hardware chip access. Let the hardware driver know which control bits are set and inform it about a change of the control lines. Let the hardware driver write out the command and address bytes directly. This gives a peformance advantage for address bus controlled chips and simplifies the quirks in the hardware drivers. Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>

2006-05-07[MTD] Convert physmap to platform driverLennert Buytenhek
After dwmw2 let me know it ought to be done, I rewrote the physmap map driver to be a platform driver. I know zilch about the driver model, so I probably botched it in some way, but I've done some tests on an ixp23xx board which uses physmap, and it all seems to work. In order to not break existing physmap users, I've added some compat code that will instantiate a platform device iff CONFIG_MTD_PHYSMAP_LEN is defined and != 0. Also, I've changed the default value for CONFIG_MTD_PHYSMAP_LEN to zero, so that people who inadvertently compile in physmap (or new, platform-style, users of physmap) don't get burned. This works pretty well -- the new physmap driver is a drop-in replacement for the old one, and works on said ixp23xx board without any code changes needed. (This should hold as long as users don't touch 'physmap_map' directly.) Once all physmap users have been converted to instantiate their own platform devices, the compat code can go. (Or we decide that we can change all the in-tree users at the same time, and never merge the compat code.)

2005-11-29[MTD] CFI: Use 16-bit access to autoselect/read device id dataTodd Poynor
Recent models of Intel/Sharp and Spansion CFI flash now have significant bits in the upper byte of device ID codes, read via what Spansion calls "autoselect" and Intel calls "read device identifier". Currently these values are truncated to the low 8 bits in the mtd data structures, as all CFI read query info has previously been read one byte at a time. Add a new method for reading 16-bit info, currently just manufacturer and device codes; datasheets hint at future uses for upper bytes in other fields.
