mtd: nandsim: don't open code a do_div helper

2012-07-06T15:59:33Z

We don't need to open code the divide function, just use div_u64 that already exists and do the same job. While this is a straightforward clean up, there is more to that, the real motivation for this. While building on a cross compiling environment in armel, using gcc 4.6.3 (Ubuntu/Linaro 4.6.3-1ubuntu5), I was getting the following build error: ERROR: "__aeabi_uldivmod" [drivers/mtd/nand/nandsim.ko] undefined! After investigating with objdump and hand built assembly version generated with the compiler, I narrowed __aeabi_uldivmod as being generated from the divide function. When nandsim.c is built with -fno-inline-functions-called-once, that happens when CONFIG_DEBUG_SECTION_MISMATCH is enabled, the do_div optimization in arch/arm/include/asm/div64.h doesn't work as expected with the open coded divide function: even if the do_div we are using doesn't have a constant divisor, the compiler still includes the else parts of the optimized do_div macro, and translates the divisions there to use __aeabi_uldivmod, instead of only calling __do_div_asm -> __do_div64 and optimizing/removing everything else out. So to reproduce, gcc 4.6 plus CONFIG_DEBUG_SECTION_MISMATCH=y and CONFIG_MTD_NAND_NANDSIM=m should do it, building on armel. After this change, the compiler does the intended thing even with -fno-inline-functions-called-once, and optimizes out as expected the constant handling in the optimized do_div on arm. As this also avoids a build issue, I'm marking for Stable, as I think is applicable for this case.

mtd: gpmi-nand: fix read page when reading to vmalloced area

2012-07-06T14:06:23Z

The gpmi-nand driver uses virt_addr_valid() to check whether a buffer is suitable for dma. If it's not, a driver allocated buffer is used instead. Then after a page read the driver allocated buffer must be copied to the user supplied buffer. This does not happen since commit 7725cc85932bd02dd12c23108e0ef748c551ccba. This patch fixes the issue. The bug is encountered with UBI which uses a vmalloced buffer for the volume table.

mtd: mxc_nand: use 32bit copy functions

2012-07-06T14:06:18Z

The following commit changes the function used to copy from/to the hardware buffer to memcpy_[from|to]io. This does not work since the hardware cannot handle the byte accesses used by these functions. Instead of reverting this patch introduce 32bit correspondents of these functions. | commit 5775ba36ea9c760c2d7e697dac04f2f7fc95aa62 | Author: Uwe Kleine-König | Date: Tue Apr 24 10:05:22 2012 +0200 | | mtd: mxc_nand: fix several sparse warnings about incorrect address space | | Signed-off-by: Uwe Kleine-König | Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy Signed-off-by: Sascha Hauer Cc: Uwe Kleine-König Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy Signed-off-by: David Woodhouse

mtd: cafe_nand: fix an & vs | mistake

2012-07-06T13:27:13Z

The intent here was clearly to set result to true if the 0x40000000 flag was set. But instead there was a | vs & typo and we always set result to true. Artem: check the spec at wiki.laptop.org/images/5/5c/88ALP01_Datasheet_July_2007.pdf and this fix looks correct.

kmsg - kmsg_dump() use iterator to receive log buffer content

2012-06-15T21:53:59Z

Provide an iterator to receive the log buffer content, and convert all kmsg_dump() users to it. The structured data in the kmsg buffer now contains binary data, which should no longer be copied verbatim to the kmsg_dump() users. The iterator should provide reliable access to the buffer data, and also supports proper log line-aware chunking of data while iterating.

mtd: nand: initialize bitflip_threshold prior to BBT scanning

2012-06-09T11:02:04Z

As of edbc454 [mtd: driver _read() returns max_bitflips; mtd_read() returns -EUCLEAN], 'mtd->bitflip_threshold' must be set for mtd devices having ECC, prior any 'mtd_read()' call. Otherwise, 'mtd_read()' will falsely return -EUCLEAN. Normally, 'mtd->bitflip_threshold' is initialized when the MTD is added. However, this is too late for NAND MTDs, as 'scan_bbt()' is invoked prior the existing initialization of 'mtd->bitflip_threshold'. This is a problem since 'scan_bbt()' calls 'mtd_read()', in the case of a flash-based bad block table. It resulted in a falsely reported bitflips indication during BBT read, which lead to constant scrubbing of the flash BBT blocks. Initialize 'mtd->bitflip_threshold' to its default value (if not already set by the driver), prior to invocation of 'scan_bbt()'.
