[PATCH v4 0/3] mtd: cfi_cmdset_0002: Use chip_ready() for write on S29GL064N

[Tokunori Ikegami]

As pointed out by this bug report [1], buffered writes are now broken on
S29GL064N. This issue comes from a rework which switched from using chip_good()
to chip_ready(), because DQ true data 0xFF is read on S29GL064N and an error
returned by chip_good(). One way to solve the issue is to revert the change
partially to use chip_ready for S29GL064N.

This is a preparation patch for the S29GL064N buffer writes fix. There
is no functional change.

A lot of the diff is just a rename. I am not against a rename if you
feel it's better, but in this order:
1: prepare the fix
2: fix
3: rename/define id's, whatever

What is this for? Same here, I don't see the point. Please get rid of
all these unnecessary helpers which do nothing, besides complicating
user's life.

Yes deleted the macro as changed the name chip_check to chip_ready and 
to use only chip_ready without the macro.

At the very least I would call this function:
cfi_use_chip_ready_for_writes()

Yet, I still don't fully get what chip_ready is versus chip_good.

If possible and not too invasive I would definitely add a "quirks" flag
somewhere instead of this cfi_use_chip_ready_for_write() check.

Anyway, I would move this to the chip_good() implementation directly so
we partially hide the quirks complexity from the core.

How about:

Since commit dfeae1073583("mtd: cfi_cmdset_0002: Change write buffer to
check correct value") buffered writes fail on S29GL064N. This is
because, on S29GL064N, reads return 0xFF at the end of DQ polling for
write completion, where as, chip_good() check expects actual data
written to the last location to be returned post DQ polling completion.
Fix is to revert to using chip_good() for S29GL064N which only checks
for DQ lines to settle down to determine write completion.

Yeah, unfortunately this driver does not use quirk flags and tends to
hide quirks behind bool functions like above

Message sounds good to me with one remark: The issue is independent of
whether buffered writes are used or not. It's just because buffered writes
are the default, that it was broken by dfeae1073583 ("mtd: cfi_cmdset_0002:
Change write buffer to check correct value"). The word write case was broken
by 37c673ade35c ("mtd: cfi_cmdset_0002: Use chip_good() to retry in
do_write_oneword()"), so the commit message should probably reference
both. as this commit indeed fixes both FORCE_WORD_WRITE == 0 and == 1.

Thanks,
Ahmad

Is this really caused the error on do_write_oneword by the changed?
Actually it was changed to use chip_good instead of chip_ready.
But before the change still do_write_oneword uses both chip_ready and 
chip_good.
So it seems that it is possible to be caused the error before the change 
also.

By the way could you please try to test the version 5 patches again?

Why did you switch from the documented format for links you added on my
request (see
https://lore.kernel.org/stable/f1b44e87-e457-7783-d46e-0d577cea3b72@leemhuis.info/

) to v2 to something else that is not recognized by tools and scripts
that rely on proper link tags? You are making my and maybe other peoples
life unnecessary hard. :-((

FWIW, the proper style should support footnote style like this:

Because today's requirement from maintainers is to provide a Link
tag that points to the mail discussion of the patch being applied. I
then asked to use the above form instead to point to the bug report
because I don't see the point of having a "Link" tag for it?

That can be an additional Link tag, that is done all the time.

But it's not your own project, we are all working with thousands of
people together on this project on various different fronts. That needs
coordination, as some things otherwise become hard or impossible. That's
why we have documentation that explains how to do some things. Not
following it just because you don't like it is not helpful and in this
case makes my life as a volunteer a lot harder.

If you don't like the approach explained by the documentation, submit a
patch adjusting the documentation and then we can talk about this. But
until that is applied please stick to the format explained by the
documentation.

Ciao, Thorsten

Perhaps I should emphasize that I don't remember your initial request
regarding the use of a Link tag and my original idea was to help this
contributor, not kill your tools which I actually know very little
about.

Let's be honest, you are referring to a Documentation patch that *you*
wrote and was merged into Linus' tree mid January. How often do you
think people used to the contribution workflow monitor these files?

I am totally fine enforcing the use of Link: tags if this is what has
been decided, just don't expect everybody to switch to a style rather
than another over a night.

This is uselessly condescending.

Correct, but in case of submitting-patches it was just a clarification
how to place links; why the whole aspect was missing in the other is

Not often, that's why I have no problem pointing it out, even if that's
slightly annoying. But you can imagine that it felt kinda odd on my side
when asking someone to set the links (with references to the docs
explaining how to set them) and seeing them added then in v2, just so
see they vanished again in v3 of the same patch. :-/

I don't.

I apologize, it wasn't meant that way. I had to many discussions already
where people were not setting any links and it seems the topic is slowly
hitting a nerve here. Sorry.

I fully understand. I actually learned that these tags had to be used
for this purpose, so I will actually enforce their use in my next
reviews.

Just a side question, should the Documentation also mention how
to refer to links for people not used to it? Something like
[5.Posting.rst]:

	"Link: <link> [1]
	 Link: <link> [2]"

My original point was that maintainers would almost always add
a Link tag at the end, containing the mailing-list thread about the
patch being applied. Just saying in the commit log "see the link below"
then becomes misleading.

No worries, thanks :-)

I also feel like I am repeating myself sometimes. And then I remember
Rob and the ton of e-mails where he has to repeat himself hundreds of
times a day and I feel slightly better :-p

Maybe. But I think the better approach would be: introduce more specify
tags like "Reported:" (and maybe drop "Reported-by" at the same time?)
or "BugLink" (some people use that already!) would be better -- and then
maybe "Posted:", "Reviewposting", or something like that for the link to
the patch that is being applied; and leave "Link" for the rest. I
proposed that a while ago, but that didn't get any traction.

Maybe, but OTOH that link is normally at the end, which kinda makes it
obvious.

Fixed to use Link tag as before by the version 5 patches instead of [1].

Thanks for your quick iterations but overall I seriously don't feel
this series is ready. At least right now I am still not satisfied by
its shape.

... and this Fixes tag points to a v4.18 kernel, so if this is true, we
should have a backport-able patch. This also means that this is not as
critical than I thought if people already lived 4 years with the bug.

Vignesh, I let you continue iterating with Tokunori and ack the series
when you feel it's ready.
