* [MTD] [NAND] subpage read feature as a way to increase performance. Alexey Korolev2008-07-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch enables NAND subpage read functionality. If upper layer drivers are requesting to read non page aligned data NAND subpage-read functionality reads the only whose ECC regions which include requested data when original code reads whole page. This significantly improves performance in many cases. Here are some digits : UBI volume mount time No subpage reads: 5.75 seconds Subpage read patch: 2.42 seconds Open/stat time for files on JFFS2 volume: No subpage read 0m 5.36s Subpage read 0m 2.88s Signed-off-by Alexey Korolev <akorolev@infradead.org> Acked-by: Artem Bityutskiy <dedekind@infradead.org> Acked-by: Jörn Engel <joern@logfs.org> Signed-off-by: David Woodhouse <David.Woodhouse@intel.com>
* [MTD] [NAND] Verify probe by retrying to checking the results matchBen Dooks2008-04-22
| | | | | | | | | | | With modern systems using bus-hold instead of bus pull-up, it can often lead to erroneous reporting of NAND devices where there are none. Do a double probe to ensure that the result we got the first time is repeatable, and if it is not then return that there is no chip there.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some hardware, such as the enhanced local bus controller used on some mpc83xx chips, does ecc transparently when reading and writing data, rather than providing a generic calculate/correct mechanism that can be exported to the nand subsystem.

* [MTD] [NAND] fix race in nand_base.cArtem Bityutskiy2007-07-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | When we mark block bad we have to get chip because this involves writing to the page's OOB. We hit this bug in UBI - we observed random obscure crashes when it marks block bad from the background thread and there is some parallel task which utilizes flash.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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] NAND: Fix nand_default_mark_blockbad() when flash-based BBT disabledRicard Wanderlöf2006-10-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When a flash-based BBT is not used, nand_default_mark_blockbad() is supposed to mark the block bad in the oob. However, it sets the wrong length variable so that no bad block marker is in fact written. This patch attempts to rectify that. (As note, it seems to be that logically, it shouldn't be necessary to set both length variables, as one appears to be for the main buffer, and one for the oob buffer, but this is how it is done in several places, including the code for the mtd character device MEMWRITEOOB and MEMREADOOB ioctls. I'm not sure if this is a temporary solution during some rework of the mtd infrastructure, or whether there is a deeper thought here.)

* [MTD] Rework the out of band handling completelyThomas Gleixner2006-05-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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>
