* | mtd: blktrans: Hotplug fixesMaxim Levitsky2010-02-261-1/+0
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | * Add locking where it was missing. * Don't do a get_mtd_device in blktrans_open because it would lead to a deadlock; instead do that in add_mtd_blktrans_dev. * Only free the mtd_blktrans_dev structure when the last user exits. * Flush request queue on device removal. * Track users, and call tr->release in del_mtd_blktrans_dev Due to that ->open and release aren't called more that once. Now it is safe to call del_mtd_blktrans_dev while the device is still in use. Signed-off-by: Maxim Levitsky <maximlevitsky@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David Woodhouse <David.Woodhouse@intel.com>

* mtd: Use BLOCK_NIL consistently in NFTL/INFTLJulia Lawall2009-06-271-5/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Use BLOCK_NIL consistently rather than sometimes 0xffff and sometimes BLOCK_NIL. The semantic patch that finds this issue is below (http://www.emn.fr/x-info/coccinelle/). On the other hand, the changes were made by hand, in part because drivers/mtd/inftlcore.c contains dead code that causes spatch to ignore a relevant function. Specifically, the function INFTL_findwriteunit contains a do-while loop, but always takes a return that leaves the loop on the first iteration. // <smpl> @r exists@ identifier f,C; @@ f(...) { ... return C; } @s@ identifier r.C; expression E; @@ @@ identifier r.f,r.C,I; expression s.E; @@ f(...) { <... ( I | - E + C ) ...> } // </smpl> Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk> Signed-off-by: David Woodhouse <David.Woodhouse@intel.com>
* [MTD] update internal API to support 64-bit device sizeAdrian Hunter2008-12-101-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | MTD internal API presently uses 32-bit values to represent device size. This patch updates them to 64-bits but leaves the external API unchanged. Extending the external API is a separate issue for several reasons. First, no one needs it at the moment. Secondly, whether the implementation is done with IOCTLs, sysfs or both is still debated. Thirdly external API changes require the internal API to be accepted first. Note that although the MTD API will be able to support 64-bit device sizes, existing drivers do not and are not required to do so, although NAND base has been updated. In general, changing from 32-bit to 64-bit values cause little or no changes to the majority of the code with the following exceptions: - printk message formats - division and modulus of 64-bit values - NAND base support - 32-bit local variables used by mtdpart and mtdconcat - naughtily assuming one structure maps to another in MEMERASE ioctl Signed-off-by: Adrian Hunter <ext-adrian.hunter@nokia.com> Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com> Signed-off-by: David Woodhouse <David.Woodhouse@intel.com>
* [MTD] [INFTL] Fix infinite loop in INFTL_foldchainDaniel Rosenthal2008-10-081-1/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When iterating over a chain in reverse (oldest block first), this patch correctly marks the PUtable[] entry of the second to last erase block of a chain as BLOCK_NIL, regardless of whether or not it can format the last block successfully. Before, the second to last block was only marked as pointing to BLOCK_NIL if INFTL_formatblock() succeeded on the last block of the chain, which could potentially result in an infinite loop if the block was worn out and refused to format.

* MTD/JFFS2: remove CVS keywordsAdrian Bunk2008-06-041-5/+0

* [MTD] [NAND] remove len/ooblen confusion.Vitaly Wool2006-11-281-4/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | As was discussed between Ricard Wanderlöf, David Woodhouse, Artem Bityutskiy and me, the current API for reading/writing OOB is confusing. The thing that introduces confusion is the need to specify ops.len together with ops.ooblen for reads/writes that concern only OOB not data area. So, ops.len is overloaded: when ops.datbuf != NULL it serves to specify the length of the data read, and when ops.datbuf == NULL, it serves to specify the full OOB read length. The patch inlined below is the slightly updated version of the previous patch serving the same purpose, but with the new Artem's comments taken into account. Artem, BTW, thanks a lot for your valuable input! Signed-off-by: Vitaly Wool <vwool@ru.mvista.com> Signed-off-by: David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org>

* [MTD] Rework the out of band handling completelyThomas Gleixner2006-05-291-24/+87
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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>

* Linux-2.6.12-rc2Linus Torvalds2005-04-161-0/+912
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
