mtd: nand: Add core infrastructure to support SPI NANDs

2018-07-18T07:24:10+00:00

Add a SPI NAND framework based on the generic NAND framework and the spi-mem infrastructure. In its current state, this framework supports the following features: - single/dual/quad IO modes - on-die ECC Signed-off-by: Peter Pan Signed-off-by: Boris Brezillon Signed-off-by: Miquel Raynal

mtd: Move onenand code base to drivers/mtd/nand/onenand

2018-03-15T14:40:37+00:00

Move onenand code base to the drivers/mtd/nand directory in the hope that someday someone will patch it to use the generic NAND helpers. If it never happens, at least we'll have all NAND related support in a single directory and not spread over the drivers/mtd/ directory. Signed-off-by: Boris Brezillon

mtd: nand: Add core infrastructure to deal with NAND devices

2018-02-16T09:10:53+00:00

Add an intermediate layer to abstract NAND device interface so that some logic can be shared between SPI NANDs, parallel/raw NANDs, OneNANDs, ... Signed-off-by: Boris Brezillon

mtd: nand: move raw NAND related code to the raw/ subdir

2018-02-16T09:09:34+00:00

As part of the process of sharing more code between different NAND based devices, we need to move all raw NAND related code to the raw/ subdirectory. Signed-off-by: Boris Brezillon

mtd: nand: Get rid of comments giving the file path inside the file itself

2018-02-16T09:08:27+00:00

Some files add a comment giving the path of the file inside the Linux tree, which is pretty useless since the reader had to find the file to open it. Getting rid of these comments will also allow us to easily move these files around when needed. Signed-off-by: Boris Brezillon

mtd: nand: add reworked Marvell NAND controller driver

2018-01-12T14:17:06+00:00

Add marvell_nand driver which aims at replacing the existing pxa3xx_nand driver. The new driver intends to be easier to understand and follows the brand new NAND framework rules by implementing hooks for every pattern the controller might support and referencing them inside a parser object that will be given to the core at each ->exec_op() call. Raw accessors are implemented, useful to test/debug memory/filesystem corruptions. Userspace binaries contained in the mtd-utils package may now be used and their output trusted. Most of the DT nodes using the old driver kept non-optimal timings from the bootloader (even if there was some mechanisms to derive them if the chip was ONFI compliant). The new default is to implement ->setup_data_interface() and follow the core's decision regarding the chip. Thanks to the improved timings, implementation of ONFI mode 5 support (with EDO managed by adding a delay on data sampling), merging the commands together and optimizing writes in the command registers, the new driver may achieve faster throughputs in both directions. Measurements show an improvement of about +23% read throughput and +24% write throughput. These measurements have been done with an Armada-385-DB-AP (4kiB NAND pages forced in 4-bit strength BCH ECC correction) using the userspace tool 'flash_speed' from the MTD test suite. Besides these important topics, the new driver addresses several unsolved known issues in the old driver which: - did not work with ECC soft neither with ECC none ; - relied on naked read/write (which is unchanged) while the NFCv1 embedded in the pxa3xx platforms do not implement it, so several NAND commands did not actually ever work without any notice (like reading the ONFI PARAM_PAGE or SET/GET_FEATURES) ; - wrote the OOB data correctly, but was not able to read it correctly past the first OOB data chunk ; - did not retrieve ECC bytes ; - used device tree bindings that did not allow more than one NAND chip, and did not allow to choose the correct chip select if not incrementing from 0. Plus, the Ready/Busy line used had to be 0. Old device tree bindings are still supported but deprecated. A more hierarchical view has to be used to keep the controller and the NAND chip structures clearly separated both inside the device tree and also in the driver code.

License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license

2017-11-02T10:10:55+00:00

Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license. By default all files without license information are under the default license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2. Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0' SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and Philippe Ombredanne. How this work was done: Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of the use cases: - file had no licensing information it it. - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it, - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information, Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords. The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files. The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s) to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was: - Files considered eligible had to be source code files. - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5 lines of source - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5 lines). All documentation files were explicitly excluded. The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license identifiers to apply. - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was considered to have no license information in it, and the top level COPYING file license applied. For non */uapi/* files that summary was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 11139 and resulted in the first patch in this series. If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930 and resulted in the second patch in this series. - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in it (per prior point). Results summary: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------ GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270 GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17 LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15 GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14 ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5 LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4 LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1 and that resulted in the third patch in this series. - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became the concluded license(s). - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a license but the other didn't, or they both detected different licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred. - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics). - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier, the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later in time. In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so they are related. Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks in about 15000 files. In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the correct identifier. Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch version early this week with: - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected license ids and scores - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+ files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the different types of files to be modified. These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to generate the patches. Reviewed-by: Kate Stewart Reviewed-by: Philippe Ombredanne Reviewed-by: Thomas Gleixner Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

mtd: nand: mtk: change the compile sequence of mtk_nand.o and mtk_ecc.o

2017-10-29T19:40:40+00:00

There will get mtk ecc handler during mtk nand probe now. If mtk ecc module is not initialized, then mtk nand probe will return -EPROBE_DEFER, and retry later. Change the compile sequence of mtk_nand.o and mtk_ecc.o, initialize mtk ecc module before mtk nand module. This makes mtk nand module initialized as soon as possible.

mtd: nand: Cleanup/rework the atmel_nand driver

2017-04-25T12:18:29+00:00

This is a complete rewrite of the driver whose main purpose is to support the new DT representation where the NAND controller node is now really visible in the DT and appears under the EBI bus. With this new representation, we can add other devices under the EBI bus without risking pinmuxing conflicts (the NAND controller is under the EBI bus logic and as such, share some of its pins with other devices connected on this bus). Even though the goal of this rework was not necessarily to add new features, the new driver has been designed with this in mind. With a clearer separation between the different blocks and different IP revisions, adding new functionalities should be easier (we already have plans to support SMC timing configuration so that we no longer have to rely on the configuration done by the bootloader/bootstrap). Also note that we no longer have a custom ->cmdfunc() implementation, which means we can now benefit from new features added in the core implementation for free (support for new NAND operations for example). The last thing that we gain with this rework is support for multi-chips and multi-dies chips, thanks to the clean NAND controller <-> NAND devices representation. During this transition we also dropped support for AVR32 SoCs which should soon disappear from mainline (removal of the AVR32 arch is planned for 4.12). This new driver has been tested on several platforms (at91sam9261, at91sam9g45, at91sam9x5, sama5d3 and sama5d4) to make sure it did not introduce regressions, and it's worth mentioning that old bindings are still supported (which partly explain the positive diffstat).
