* mtd: harmonize mtd_point interface implementationArtem Bityutskiy2012-03-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some MTD drivers return -EINVAL if the 'phys' parameter is not NULL, trying to convey that they cannot return the physical address. However, this is not very logical because they still can return the virtual address ('virt'). But some drivers (lpddr) just ignore the 'phys' parameter instead, which is a more logical thing to do. Let's harmonize this and: 1. Always initialize 'virt' and 'phys' to 'NULL' in 'mtd_point()'. 2. Do not return an error if the physical address cannot be found. So as a result, all drivers will set 'phys' to 'NULL' if it is not supported. None of the 'mtd_point()' users use 'phys' anyway, so this should not break anything. I guess we could also just delete this parameter later. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <artem.bityutskiy@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: David Woodhouse <David.Woodhouse@intel.com>
* mtd: do not duplicate length and offset checks in driversArtem Bityutskiy2012-03-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* mtd: return error code from mtd_unpointArtem Bityutskiy2012-03-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | 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()'.

* mtd: add leading underscore to all mtd functionsArtem Bityutskiy2012-03-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* MTD/JFFS2: remove CVS keywordsAdrian Bunk2008-06-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | Once upon a time, the MTD repository was using CVS. This patch therefore removes all usages of the no longer updated CVS keywords from the MTD code. This also includes code that printed them to the user. Signed-off-by: Adrian Bunk <bunk@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org>

* [PATCH] vfree and kfree cleanup in drivers/Jesper Juhl2005-09-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | This patch does a full cleanup of 'NULL checks before vfree', and a partial cleanup of calls to kfree for all of drivers/ - the kfree bit is partial in that I only did the files that also had vfree calls in them. The patch also gets rid of some redundant (void *) casts of pointers being passed to [vk]free, and a some tiny whitespace corrections also crept in.

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!
