mtd: cfi_cmdset_0002: Support Persistent Protection Bits (PPB) locking

2013-02-04T07:27:33Z

Currently cfi_cmdset_0002.c does not support PPB locking of sectors. This patch adds support for this locking/unlocking mechanism. It is needed on some platforms, since newer U-Boot versions do support this PPB locking and protect for example their environment sector(s) this way. This PPB locking/unlocking will be enabled for all devices supported by cfi_cmdset_0002 reporting 8 in the CFI word 0x49 (Sector Protect/Unprotect scheme). Please note that PPB locking does support sector-by-sector locking. But the whole chip can only be unlocked together. So unlocking one sector will automatically unlock all sectors of this device. Because of this chip limitation, the PPB unlocking function saves the current locking status of all sectors before unlocking the whole device. After unlocking the saved locking status is re-configured. This way only the addressed sectors will be unlocked. To selectively enable this advanced sector protection mechanism, the device-tree property "use-advanced-sector-protection" has been created. To enable support for this locking this property needs to be present in the flash DT node. E.g.: nor_flash@0,0 { compatible = "amd,s29gl256n", "cfi-flash"; bank-width = <2>; use-advanced-sector-protection; ... Tested with Spansion S29GL512S10THI and Micron JS28F512M29EWx flash devices.

drivers/mtd/chips: remove depends on CONFIG_EXPERIMENTAL

The CONFIG_EXPERIMENTAL config item has not carried much meaning for a while now and is almost always enabled by default. As agreed during the Linux kernel summit, remove it from any "depends on" lines in Kconfigs. CC: David Woodhouse Signed-off-by: Kees Cook Acked-by: Artem Bityutskiy

mtd: fix recovery after failed write-buffer operation in cfi_cmdset_0002.c

2012-12-03T14:36:52Z

When working on a problem with some flash chips that lock up during write-buffer operations, I think there may be a bug in the linux handling of chips using cfi_cmdset_0002.c. The datasheets I have found for a number of these chips all specify that when aborting a write-buffer command, it is not enough to use the standard reset. Rather a "write-to-buffer-reset command" is needed. This command is quite similar for all chips, the main variance seem to be if the final 0xF0 can go to any address or must go to addr_unlock1. The bug is then in the recovery handling when timing out at the end of do_write_buffer, where using the normal reset command is not sufficient. Without this change, if the write-buffer command fails then any following operations on the flash also fail. Signed-off-by: Harald Nordgard-Hansen Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy

mtd: cfi_cmdset_0001: Fix problem with unlocking timeout

2012-09-29T14:29:08Z

Unlocking may take up to 1.4 seconds on some Intel flashes. So lets use a max. of 1.5 seconds (1500ms) as timeout. See "Clear Block Lock-Bits Time" on page 40 in "3 Volt Intel StrataFlash Memory" 28F128J3,28F640J3,28F320J3 manual from February 2003 This patch also fixes some other problems with this timeout: - Don't use HZ in timeout "calculation"! While testing we noticed that an unlocking timeout occured with HZ=1000 and didn't occur with HZ=300. This was because the timeout parameter was calculated differently depending on the HZ value. Now a fixed value of 1500ms is used. - The last parameter of WAIT_TIMEOUT (defined to inval_cache_and_wait_for_operation) has to be passed in micro-seconds. So multiply the ms value with 1000 and not 100 to calculate this value. - Use variable name "mdelay" instead of misleading "udelay".

mtd: chips: reorganize Kconfig help on swapping

2012-07-06T17:17:07Z

The Kconfig help on "Flash cmd/query data swapping" still mentions LART_ENDIAN_BYTE. That option used to be relevant for setting CONFIG_MTD_CFI_LART_BIT_SWAP. That option and macro got both removed in v2.4.11-pre4. So, although LART endianness sounds intriguing, that part of the help text can be removed. And, while we're touching this choice, move the help text up one level. Currently it's available under the "NO" option, while it's relevant for all three options.

2012-03-31T00:31:56Z

Pull MTD changes from David Woodhouse: - Artem's cleanup of the MTD API continues apace. - Fixes and improvements for ST FSMC and SuperH FLCTL NAND, amongst others. - More work on DiskOnChip G3, new driver for DiskOnChip G4. - Clean up debug/warning printks in JFFS2 to use pr_. Fix up various trivial conflicts, largely due to changes in calling conventions for things like dmaengine_prep_slave_sg() (new inline wrapper to hide new parameter, clashing with rewrite of previously last parameter that used to be an 'append' flag, and is now a bitmap of 'unsigned long flags').
