2011-03-24UBI: use GFP_NOFS properlyArtem Bityutskiy
This patch fixes a brown-paperbag bug which was introduced by me: I used incorrect "GFP_KERNEL | GFP_NOFS" allocation flags to make sure my allocations do not cause write-back. But the correct form is "GFP_NOFS". Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>

2011-03-23mtd: Use mfd_data instead of driver_data for tmio_nandAndres Salomon
Use mfd_data for passing information from mfd drivers to mfd clients. The mfd_cell's driver_data field is being phased out. Clients that were using driver_data now access .mfd_data via mfd_get_data(). This changes tmio-nand only; mfd drivers with other cells are not modified.

2011-03-16UBI: make tests modes dynamicArtem Bityutskiy
Similarly to the debugging checks and message, make the test modes be dynamically selected via the "debug_tsts" module parameter or via the "/sys/module/ubi/parameters/debug_tsts" sysfs file. This is consistent with UBIFS as well. And now, since all the Kconfig knobs became dynamic, we can remove the Kconfig.debug file completely. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>
2011-03-16UBI: make self-checks dynamicArtem Bityutskiy
This patch adds a possibility to dynamically switch UBI self-checks on and off, instead of toggling them compile-time from the configuration menu. This is much more flexible, and consistent with UBIFS, and this also simplifies UBI Kconfig menu and the code. This patch introduces two levels of self-checks - general, which includes all self-checks which are relatively fast, and I/O, which includes write-verify checks and erase-verify checks, which are relatively slow and involve flash I/O.

2011-03-16UBI: remove UBI_IO_DEBUG macroArtem Bityutskiy

2011-03-16UBI: kill debugging bufferArtem Bityutskiy
This patch kills the 'ubi->dbg_peb_buf' debugging buffer and the associated mutex, because all users of this buffer are now gone. We are killing this buffer because we are going to switch to dynamic debugging control, just like in UBIFS, which means that CONFIG_MTD_UBI_DEBUG_PARANOID will be removed. In this case we'd end up always allocating 'ubi->dbg_peb_buf', which is rather large (128KiB or more), and this would be wasteful. Thus, we are just killing it.

2011-03-16UBI: allocate erase checking buffer on demandArtem Bityutskiy
Instead of using pre-allocated 'ubi->dbg_peb_buf' buffer in 'ubi_dbg_check_all_ff()', dynamically allocate it when needed. The intend is to get rid of the pre-allocated 'ubi->dbg_peb_buf' buffer completely. And the need for this arises because we want to change to dynamic debugging control instead of compile-time control, i.e., we are going to kill the CONFIG_MTD_UBI_DEBUG_PARANOID Kconfig option, which would mean that 'ubi->dbg_peb_buf' is always allocated, which would be wasteful. Thus, we are getting rid of 'ubi->dbg_peb_buf', and this is a preparation for that. signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>

In the same commit initialisation of cfi->sector_erase_cmd made in cfi_chip_setup() (file drivers/mtd/chips/cfi_probe.c), so the CFI chip has no problem: ... cfi->cfi_mode = CFI_MODE_CFI; cfi->sector_erase_cmd = CMD(0x30); ...

If errors happen during multibock erase then the specification recommends to run multiblock erase verify command with maximum timeout 10ms (see specs. for KFM4G16Q2A and KFN8G16Q2A). For the most common non-error case we wait 100us in udelay polling loop. In case of timeout the interrupt mode is used to wait for the command end.

2011-02-06UBI: always re-read in case of read failuresArtem Bityutskiy
When the read operation fails, UBI tries to re-read several times in a hope that one of the subsequent reads may succeed. However, currently UBI re-reads only if MTD failed to read all data, but does not re-reads if all the data were read, but with an integrity error (-EBADMSB). This patch makes UBI to always re-try reading. This should be useful for reading NAND pages with unstable bits - re-reading may help to get correct data.

2011-02-06UBI: add slab cache for ubi_scan_leb objectsArtem Bityutskiy

2011-02-06UBI: try to reveal buggy MTD driversArtem Bityutskiy
When reading data from the flash, corrupt the buffer we are about to read to. The idea is to fix the following possible situation: 1. The buffer contains data from previous operation, e.g., read from another PEB previously. The data looks like expected, e.g., if we just do not read anything and return - the caller would not notice this. E.g., if we are reading a VID header, the buffer may contain a valid VID header from another PEB. 2. The driver is buggy and returns use success or -EBADMSG or -EUCLEAN, but it does not actually put any data to the buffer. This may confuse UBI or upper layers - they may think the buffer contains valid data while in fact it is just old data. Thus, try to reveal such buggy MTD drivers with simple debugging code which fills the read buffer with 0x12 constant. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>

This reverts commit a121f643993474548fe98144514c50dd4f3dbe76. Unfortunately, this commit breaks UBIFS backward compatibility and makes new UBIFS refuse older UBIFS-formatted media: UBIFS error: validate_sb: min. I/O unit mismatch: 8 in superblock, 64 real Thus, we have to revert this patch and work on a better solution.
