[U-Boot] [PATCH v7 00/12] SPI-NAND support

[U-Boot] [PATCH v7 00/12] SPI-NAND support

[Miquel Raynal]

During the last months, Boris Brezillon shared his work to support
serial flashes within Linux. First, he delivered (and merged) a new
layer called spi-mem. He also initiated in Linux MTD subsystem the move
of all 'raw' NAND related code to a raw/ subdirectory, adding at the
same time a NAND core that would be shared with all NAND devices. Then,
he contributed a generic SPI-NAND driver, making use of this NAND core,
as well as some vendor code to drive a few chips.

On top of this work, I made some cleanups in the MTD layer and added an
'mtd' U-Boot command to handle all sort of MTD devices. This should
become the default command instead of having one per flash flavor
('sf', 'nand', 'spi-nand' ?).

The series has been tested on an Ocelot board PCB123 (VSC7514),
featuring a Macronix SPI NAND chip.

TL;DR: the series contains (stripped version since 23 patches have
already been taken):
- Various fixes
- Support for spi-nand devices in mtdparts.
- Generics mtdparts/mtdids parsers.
- A new 'mtd' command.
- A note to set mtdparts command legacy.

To test your SPI-NAND device with U-Boot, you can test someting like:

> setenv mtdparts 'spi-nand0:1m(foo),-(bar)'
> setenv mtdids 'spi-nand0=spi0.0' # spi0.0 is Linux MTD name for this device
> ubi part bar         # create a static UBI volume in the bar partition
> mtd list             # show the current MTD devices/partitions

Thanks,
Miquèl

Changes since v7:
-----------------
* Added Stefan R-b tags.
* Used tolower() as suggested by Stefan in lib/strto.c.
* Added a mention saying that we continue to abuse the kB suffix in
  lib/strto.c by not making a difference between kB and kiB which both
  mean "* 1024" for us. This has been added in the commit log.
* Fixed various bugs in the mtd command and in the parsers, they should
  be pretty stable now (tested with two MTD devices probed and several
  different partition configurations).
* mtdids is not deprecated at all as opposed at what I wrote in
  v6. U-Boot still uses its own MTD names (being <type><idx> like nor0
  or spi-nand1) and mtdids is still needed to do the glue.
* Removed a useless patch removing a Kconfig entry I added myself since
  during a rebase someone else also added this symbol.

Changes since v6:
-----------------
* Squashed Boris' fixes about build issues in Travis.
* Merged Stefan Roese's contributions.
* cmd: mtdparts:
  * added fallthrough comments in switch blocks deriving sizes.
  * balanced debug messages to compare freed and allocated partitions.
  * move mtdparts_init() declaration in mtd/partitions.h to be used in
    mtd command as well.
  * introduced a "compatibility" function to return what the MTD device
    name could be thanks to the mtdids environment variable (which is
    useless with the new partitioning logic).
* mtd: mtdpart:
  * reworked the way partitions are created/handled.
* cmd: mtd:
  * implement a partitioning logic that takes the best out of the MTD
    layer without re-inventing the wheel. Partitions are all freed
    correctly when the value of mtdparts changes.
  * balance get_mtd_device() by put_mtd_device() calls.
  * prevent memory leak by reorganizing the code a bit in do_mtd.
  * do not reconstruct partition list when a partition is already in use
    (complain about that instead).
  * add support for the legacy mtdids (not needed anymore if mtdparts
    directly uses the MTD device names as in Linux.
* cmd: ubi:
  * clean and simplify the partition handling a bit to make use the best
    use of the MTD layer as well and keep the code simple.

Changes since v5:
-----------------
* Included Boris fixup about the build issues.
* Added Rb/Ab tags from Jagan on patchs 20/21.

Changes since v4:
-----------------
* Added Jagan's Acked-by tags to every patch related to the
  SPI-mem/SPI-NAND addition.
* Rebased on top of master.

Changes since v3:
-----------------
* Fixed the debug messages in spi-mem to print either Rx or Tx data.
* Fixed a Kconfig error that prevented to build mtdparts with plain
  defconfig.
* Fixed a compilation error due to the above error that prevented one
  file to be compiled.
* Adapted the mtd command to probe MTD partitions also.
* Declared mtd_probe_devices() in a header so mtdparts or UBI could
  use it too (to probe all devices and MTD partitions in a clean way).
* As I worked on mtdparts, I found annoying and completely useless the
  fact that we need to prefix the environment variable with
  "mtdparts=". Canceled this obligation.
* Added one patch to allow spi-nand devices to be recognized by mtdparts
  (this is purely useless but needed to be done in order to use this
  command).
* Removed useless definitions of MTD device types in UBI code.
* Wrote a generic mtdparts environment variable parser, used by the mtd
  command.
* Used the mtd_probe_devices() function from get_mtd_info() in
  cmd/mtdparts.c to be sure the desired partition really does not exist
  (otherwise it will be probed and then found).

Changes since v2:
-----------------
* Rebased on u-boot master branch.
* Removed extra-parenthesis in
  "mtd: Fallback to ->_read/write() when ->_read/write_oob() is missing"
* s/fiels/files/ in "mtd: move NAND fiels into a raw/ subdirectory"
* Do not describe generic SPI device properties in SPI NAND bindings.
* Changes in the mtd command:
  * Printing more information in 'mtd list' (device type, device
    characteristics)
  * Switch to do_div() instead of '(u32)value64b % value32b' which only
    worked because value32b was a power of 2.
  * Removed erase.chip option.
  * By default, erase/read/write happen on the full MTD device while a
    dump will only work on a single page.

Changes since v1:
-----------------
* Fixed the nand_memorg structure of the MX35LF2GE4AB chip.
* Added Reviewed-by tags from Jagan.
* Backported and squashed two patches fixing things in the SPI NAND core
  received on the Linux ML.
* Backported more changes in mtdcore.c from Linux.
* Added a patch to add a fallback on mtd->_read/_write() in mtdcore.c
  when mtd->_read/write_oob() is not supported.
* Removed the DT changes, useless as the DTs are not available in
  mainline yet.
* Addressed Boris/Stefan comments on the 'mtd' command.
* Added support for multi-pages OOB read/write.

[U-Boot] [PATCH v7 01/12] lib: strto: parse all lowercase metric prefixes in ustrtoul[l]

[Miquel Raynal]

Both ustrtoul and ustrtoull interpret 1k but not 1m or 1g. Even if the
SI symbols for Mega and Giga are 'M' and 'G', certain entries of
eg. mtdparts also use (wrongly) the metric prefix 'm' and 'g'.

I do not see how parsing lowercase prefixes could break anything, so
parse them like their uppercase counterpart.

Also, even though kiB is not equal to kB in general, lets not change
U-Boot behavior and always use kiB and kB (same applies for MiB vs. MB
and GiB vs. GB) as a representation for 1024 instead of 1000.

[U-Boot] [PATCH v7 02/12] lib: strto: fix metric suffix parsing in strtoul[l]

[Miquel Raynal]

While 1kB or 1kiB will be parsed correctly, 1k will return the right
amount, but the metric suffix will not be escaped once the char
pointer updated. Fix this situation by simplifying the move of the
endp pointer.

[U-Boot] [PATCH v7 03/12] cmd: mtdparts: accept spi-nand devices

[Miquel Raynal]

Let spi-nand devices be recognized by mtdparts. This is superfluous
but a full mtdparts rework would be very time-consuming.

[U-Boot] [PATCH v7 04/12] cmd: mtdparts: remove mandatory 'mtdparts=' prefix

[Miquel Raynal]

All U-Boot users must define the mtdparts environment variable with:
setenv mtdparts mtdparts=...

While this may ease the partition declaration job to be passed to
Linux, this is a pure software limitation and forcing this prefix is a
complete non-sense. Let the user to declare manually the mtdparts
variable without the prefix.

[U-Boot] [PATCH v7 06/12] mtd: uclass: add a generic 'mtdparts' parser

[Miquel Raynal]

The current parser is very specific to U-Boot mtdparts implementation.
It does not use MTD structures like mtd_info and mtd_partition. Copy
and adapt the current parser in drivers/mtd/mtd-uclass.c (to not break
the current use of mtdparts.c itself) and write some kind of a wrapper
around the current implementation to allow other commands to benefit
from this parsing in a user-friendly way.

This new function will allocate an mtd_partition array for each
successful call. This array must be freed after use by the caller.
The given 'mtdparts' buffer pointer will be moved forward to the next
MTD device (if any, it will point towards a '\0' character otherwise).

[U-Boot] [PATCH v7 07/12] mtd: uclass: search for an equivalent MTD name with the mtdids

[Miquel Raynal]

Using an MTD device (resp. partition) name in mtdparts is simple and
straightforward. However, for a long time already, another name was
given in mtdparts to indicate a device (resp. partition) so the
"mtdids" environment variable was created to do the match.

Let's create a function that, from an MTD device (resp. partition)
name, search for the equivalent name in the "mtdparts" environment
variable thanks to the "mtdids" string.

[U-Boot] [PATCH v7 08/12] mtd: mtdpart: implement proper partition handling

[Miquel Raynal]

Instead of collecting partitions in a flat list, create a hierarchy
within the mtd_info structure: use a partitions list to keep track of
the partitions of an MTD device (which might be itself a partition of
another MTD device), a pointer to the parent device (NULL when the MTD
device is the root one, not a partition).

By also saving directly in mtd_info the offset of the partition, we
can get rid of the mtd_part structure.

[U-Boot] [PATCH v7 09/12] cmd: mtd: add 'mtd' command

[Miquel Raynal]

There should not be a 'nand' command, a 'sf' command and certainly not
a new 'spi-nand' command. Write a 'mtd' command instead to manage all
MTD devices/partitions at once. This should be the preferred way to
access any MTD device.

[U-Boot] [PATCH v7 10/12] cmd: mtdparts: try to probe the MTD devices as a fallback

[Miquel Raynal]

Current implementation of mtdparts command errors out if the desired MTD
device is not found. Fallback to the new probe function in this case
before erroring out.

This will the save the user the need to call something like 'mtd list'
before mtdparts.

[U-Boot] [PATCH v7 11/12] cmd: ubi: clean the partition handling

[Miquel Raynal]

UBI should not mess with MTD partitions, now that the partitions are
handled in a clean way, clean the ubi command and avoid using this
uneeded extra-glue to reference the devices.

[U-Boot] [PATCH v7 12/12] cmd: mtdparts: describe as legacy

[Miquel Raynal]

The 'mtdparts' command is not needed anymore. While the environment
variable is still valid (and useful, along with the 'mtdids' one), the
command has been replaced by 'mtd' which is much more close to the MTD
stack and do not add its own specific glue.

[U-Boot] [PATCH v7 00/12] SPI-NAND support

[Miquel Raynal]

Hello,

I failed the numbering, this is actually the v8. The below changelog is
still right though. I don't plan to resend unless I am explicitly told
to do so.

Sorry for the mistake.

Thanks,
Miquèl

Just a detail, but I think this logic could be moved in moved in
the core (mtd_uboot.c).

Don't know if the refcounting is a nop or not, but shouldn't we keep
a reference to mtd until we're done manipulating it (after the call to
add_mtd_partitions())?

I'd recommend creating an helper for parts deletion:

void mtd_free_partitions(struct mtd_partitions *parts,
			 unsigned int nparts)
{
	for (i = 0; i < len; i++)
		free(parts[i].name);

	free(parts);
}

Actually, I think the whole mtd_probe_devices() function (and its
dependencies) should be moved in the core (mtd_uboot.c?) so that other
components (ubi, cmd/mtdparts) can use it without depending/selecting
CONFIG_CMD_MTD.

In its current state, it should #ifdef CONFIG_CMD_MTD, since
mtd_probe_devices() is implemented in cmd/mtd.c. Anyway, as I
suggested, I think it's better to just move that in mtd_uboot.c and
drop the #ifdef.

BTW, I'm not sure why we need to call mtd_probe_devices() here. If we
really want to deprecate this command, then I'd recommend not adding new
features to it.

Okay, so just like for the mtdparts patch, the #ifdef is incorrect, but
more importantly, with you're rework, you're breaking all non-DM
platforms, because the UBI layer no longer creates an MTD device on the
fly, and the mtd partition creation won't take place if CONFIG_MTD is
not activated.

My suggestion would be to make mtd_probe_devices() available to everyone
(not only those who have CONFIG_MTD selected, which in turn depends on
CONFIG_DM) so that the mtd part creation is done unconditionally, and
you can safely get rid of the "dummy MTD device creation" done in UBI.

Well, that's only working if people stop using nand,onenand,sf,...
commands in favor the mtd ones, otherwise they still need mtdparts,
unfortunately :-(.

I guess a long term goal could be to define aliases between flash
specific commands and the generic mtd ones so that we can get rid of
cmd/<flashcmd>.c drivers.

[U-Boot] [PATCH v7 00/12] SPI-NAND support

[Frieder Schrempf]

Hi Jagan,

I just wanted to ask about the timeline for the SPI-NAND patches.
I remember that Tom wanted to have them in 2018.11. Is this going to 
happen or is there anything preventing this?

Thanks,
Frieder

Travis[1] for combination of earlier series + this. Will send PR soon
I get the results.

You can definitely take the earlier series, they are fine and work on
their own. About this one, the four first patches are fine and won't be
changed, please keep them:
    lib: strto: parse all lowercase metric prefixes in ustrtoul[l]
    lib: strto: fix metric suffix parsing in strtoul[l]
    cmd: mtdparts: accept spi-nand devices
    cmd: mtdparts: remove mandatory 'mtdparts=' prefix

For the rest, as pointed by Boris, it would break UBI for certain users
so I want to make a last version (mostly code moves) next week to fit
it. I will resend a v9 only for patches:
    mtd: uclass: add probe function
    mtd: uclass: add a generic 'mtdparts' parser
    mtd: uclass: search for an equivalent MTD name with the mtdids
    mtd: mtdpart: implement proper partition handling
    cmd: mtd: add 'mtd' command
    cmd: mtdparts: try to probe the MTD devices as a fallback
    cmd: ubi: clean the partition handling
    cmd: mtdparts: describe as legacy

2018.11 is definitely the target.

Here you have the v9 in your mailbox (this was the v8 but I messed-up
with git-format-patch). For me all the features (both for spi-nand and
the 'mtd' command) are available.

I hope this is not too late before the merge window closes, I spent
more time than expected testing/fixing small errors. Of course I'm
still there and listen for feedback/bug reports.


Thanks,
Miquèl
