| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds get_device() and put_device() methods to the MTD description structure (struct mtd_info).

| * | | | [MTD] [NAND] remove len/ooblen confusion.Vitaly Wool2006-11-28

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.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Ditch the separate oobrbuf and oobwbuf fields from the chip buffers, and use only a single buffer immediately after the data. This accommodates NAND controllers such as the OLPC CAFÉ chip, which can't do scatter/gather DMA so needs the OOB buffer to be contiguous with the data, for both read and write.

This made non-data commands to have random qc->dma_dir. This usually doesn't cause problem because LLDs usually check qc->protocol first and look at qc->dma_dir iff the command needs data transfer but this doesn't hold for all LLDs. It might be worthwhile to rename qc->dma_dir to qc->data_dir as we use the field to tag data direction for both PIO and DMA protocols. This problem has been spotted by James Bottomley.

Only after the call to unmap_mapping_range() are we sure that the page can no longer be dirtied. In order to fix this, NFS has hooked the releasepage() method and tries to write the page out between the call to unmap_mapping_range() and the call to remove_mapping(). This, however leads to deadlocks in the page reclaim code, where the page may be locked without holding a reference to the inode or dentry. Fix is to add a new address_space_operation, launder_page(), which will attempt to write out a dirty page without releasing the page lock.

Userspace can check rflags, but the other cases or not testable under the current API. - if injection fails because of a fault during delivery. This probably never happens under normal guests. - if injection fails due to a physical interrupt causing a vmexit so that it can be handled by the host. In all cases the guest proceeds without processing the interrupt, reducing the interactive feel and interrupt throughput of the guest. This patch fixes the situation by allowing userspace to request an exit when the 'interrupt window' opens, so that it can re-inject the interrupt at the right time. Guest interactivity is very visibly improved.

* | | | [PATCH] SPI: define null tx_buf to mean "shift out zeroes"David Brownell2006-12-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some issues were recently turned up with the current specification of what it means for spi_transfer.tx_buf to be null, as part of transfers which are (from the SPI protocol driver perspective) pure reads. Specifically, that it seems better to change the TX behaviour there from "undefined" to "will shift zeroes". This lets protocol drivers (like the ads7846 driver) depend on that behavior. It's what most controller drivers in the tree are already doing (with one exception and one case of driver wanting-to-oops), it's what Microwire hardware will necessarily be doing, and it removes an issue whereby certain security audits would need to define such a value anyway as part of removing covert channels. This patch changes the specification to require shifting zeroes, and updates all currently merged SPI controller drivers to do so.
