[PATCH 0/7] mtd: spi-nor: fixes found when debugging smpt

[Tudor.Ambarus]

Bunch of fixes that we found while debugging the roll back to
SPINOR_OP_READ_1_1_4_4B in case smpt parser fails.

Boris, Yogesh,

Now I'm looking for a fix in case the smpt detection commands
define variable address length and dummy bytes. Will follow.

Tudor Ambarus (7):
  mtd: spi-nor: don't drop sfdp data if optional parsers fail
  mtd: spi-nor: fix iteration over smpt array
  mtd: spi-nor: add restriction for nmaps in smpt parser
  mtd: spi-nor: don't overwrite errno in spi_nor_get_map_in_use()
  mtd: spi_nor: pass DMA-able buffer to spi_nor_read_raw()
  mtd: spi-nor: ensure memory used for nor->read() is DMA safe
  mtd: spi-nor: remove unneeded smpt zeroization

[PATCH 1/7] mtd: spi-nor: don't drop sfdp data if optional parsers fail

[Tudor.Ambarus]

JESD216C states that just the Basic Flash Parameter Table is mandatory.
Already defined (or future) additional parameter headers and tables are
optional.

Don't drop already collected sfdp data in case an optional table
parser fails. In case of failing, each optional parser is responsible
to roll back to the previously known spi_nor data.

[PATCH 2/7] mtd: spi-nor: fix iteration over smpt array

[Tudor.Ambarus]

Iterate over smpt array using its starting address and length
instead of the blindly iterations that used data found in the array.

This prevents possible memory accesses outside of the smpt array
boundaries in case software, or manufacturers, misrepresent smpt
array fields.

I think we should consider this patch as a fix. Would you mind adding a

[PATCH 3/7] mtd: spi-nor: add restriction for nmaps in smpt parser

[Tudor.Ambarus]

The map selector is limited to a maximum of 8 bits, allowing
for a maximum of 256 possible map configurations. The total
number of map configurations should be addressable by the
total number of bits described by the detection commands.

For example: if there are five to eight possible sector map
configurations, at least three configuration detection commands
will be needed to extract three bits of configuration selection
information from the device in order to identify which configuration
is currently in use.

Maybe I missed something but it sounds like this change is just
optimizing the SPMT parsing a bit, and to be honest, I'm not sure this
is really needed. Most of the time, smpt_len will be rather small, so
trying to bail out earlier is not bringing much perf improvements.

To make it clearer, I don't think the extra complexity is worth the tiny
perf improvement.

I see this when you discussed with Yogesh:

+       for (nmaps = 0; i< smpt_len; nmaps++) {
+               if(!(smpt[i] & SMPT_DESC_TYPE_MAP)) {
+                       i += 2;
+                       continue;
+               }
+
+               if(!map_id_is_valid) {
+                       if (nmaps) {
+                               ret = NULL;
+                               break;
+                       }

If I understand correctly, you meant that if there are no detection commands,
and more than a configuration map, then return an error.

This is correct in my opinion. What I did was to generalize this idea. If smtp
defines more maps than you can select using detection commands, return error.

+
+                       ret = smpt+i;
+               } else if (map_id == SMPT_MAP_ID(smpt[i])) {
+                       ret = smpt+i;
+                       break;
+               }
+
                /* increment the table index to the next map */
                i += SMPT_MAP_REGION_COUNT(smpt[i]) + 1;
        }

It's rather a smtp validity check. I want to return an error if there are not
enough detection commands to identify the map id.

Yes, because in this case we have no way to know what config is
currently selected.

AFAICT you're no longer checking that map_id is valid (see below).

You're no longer checking that when ncmds == 0 nmaps has to be 1. So,
say the chip exposed no smpt commands and has several maps defined,
map_id will be 0 while it should have be "undefined". My version
would return an error, but yours tries to find map_id 0.

You would have failed the same way without this validity check after a
maximum of smpt_len iterations, right?

yep, I missed the ncmds == 0 case.

Right. The correct fix would be to count nmaps in a loop, then do these checks,
and if all ok, search for the map_id in another loop :).

Or just error out when !ncmds && nmaps > 1.

If you insist on keeping the ncmds && nmaps >= (1 << (ncmds + 1))
check, that's fine, but it's not replacing the consistency check I was
doing ;-).

I don't have a strong opinion on this, we can live without these checks as well.

[Tudor.Ambarus]

spi_nor_read_raw() calls nor->read() which might be implemented
by the m25p80 driver. m25p80 uses the spi-mem layer which requires
DMA-able in/out buffers. Pass kmalloc'ed dma buffer to spi_nor_read_raw().

I'd prefer to have it named buf, data_buf or scratch_buf...

... and have a comment here explaining why your allocating the buffer
instead of using a local var placed on the stack.

Please don't use GFP_DMA, kmalloc() should already return a DMA-safe
buffer (see [1]).

[PATCH 6/7] mtd: spi-nor: ensure memory used for nor->read() is DMA safe

[Tudor.Ambarus]

Use GFP_DMA to ensure that the memory we allocate for transfers in
nor->read() can be DMAed.

spi_nor_read_sfdp() calls spi_nor_read_raw(), which calls nor-read().
The latter might be implemented by the m25p80 driver which is on top
of the spi-mem layer. spi-mem requires DMA-able in/out buffers, let's
make sure they are.

See my comment on patch 5.

[PATCH 7/7] mtd: spi-nor: remove unneeded smpt zeroization

[Tudor.Ambarus]

The entire smpt array is initialized with data read from sfdp,
there is no need to init it with zeroes before.
