2011-01-29Revert "UBI: use mtd->writebufsize to set minimal I/O unit size"Artem Bityutskiy1-27/+1
This reverts commit a121f643993474548fe98144514c50dd4f3dbe76. Unfortunately, this commit breaks UBIFS backward compatibility and makes new UBIFS refuse older UBIFS-formatted media: UBIFS error: validate_sb: min. I/O unit mismatch: 8 in superblock, 64 real Thus, we have to revert this patch and work on a better solution.

2011-01-06UBI: use mtd->writebufsize to set minimal I/O unit sizeAnatolij Gustschin1-1/+27
Previously we used mtd->writesize field to set UBI's minimal I/O unit size. This sometimes caused UBIFS recovery issues when mounting an uncleanly unmounted UBIFS partition on NOR flash since mtd->writesize is 1 byte for NOR flash. The MTD CFI driver however often performs writing multiple bytes in one programming operation using the chip's write buffer. We have to use the size of this write buffer as a minimal I/O unit size for UBI on NOR flash to fix the observed UBIFS recovery issues.

2010-12-03UBI: fix corrupted PEB detection for NOR flashArtem Bityutskiy2-12/+29
My new shiny code for corrupted PEB detection has NOR specific bug. We tread PEB as corrupted and preserve it, if 1. EC header is OK. 2. VID header is corrupted. 3. data area is not "all 0xFFs" In case of NOR we have 'nor_erase_prepare()' quirk, which invalidates the headers before erasing the PEB. And we invalidate first the VID header, and then the EC header. So if a power cut happens after we have invalidated the VID header, but before we have invalidated the EC header, we end up with a PEB which satisfies the above 3 conditions, and the scanning code will treat it as corrupted, and will print scary warnings, wrongly. This patch fixes the issue by firt invalidating the EC header, then invalidating the VID header. In case of power cut inbetween, we still just lose the EC header, and UBI can deal with this situation gracefully. Thanks to Anatolij Gustschin <agust@denx.de> for tracking this down.

2010-10-21UBI: tighten the corrupted PEB criteriaArtem Bityutskiy1-11/+34
If we get a bit-flip of ECC error while reading the data area, do not add it to corrupted list, because it is possible that this is just unstable PEB with corruptions caused by unclean reboots. This patch also improves commentaries. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>
2010-10-21UBI: fix check_data_ff return codeArtem Bityutskiy1-2/+5

2010-10-21UBI: remember copy_flag while scanningArtem Bityutskiy2-11/+13
While scanning the flash we read all VID headers and store some important information in 'struct ubi_scan_leb'. Store also the 'copy_flag' value there as it is needed when comparing LEBs. We do not increase memory consumption because this is just one bit and we have plenty of spare bits in 'struct ubi_scan_leb' (sizeof(struct ubi_scan_leb) is 48 both with and without this patch).

2010-10-19UBI: preserve corrupted PEBsArtem Bityutskiy7-47/+45
Currently UBI erases all corrupted eraseblocks, irrespectively of the nature of corruption: corruption due to power cuts and non-power cut corruption. The former case is OK, but the latter is not, because UBI may destroy potentially important data. With this patch, during scanning, when UBI hits a PEB with corrupted VID header, it checks whether this PEB contains only 0xFF data. If yes, it is safe to erase this PEB and it is put to the 'erase' list. If not, this may be important data and it is better to avoid erasing this PEB. Instead, UBI puts it to the corr list and moves out of the pool of available PEB. IOW, UBI preserves this PEB. Such corrupted PEB lessen the amount of available PEBs. So the more of them we accumulate, the less PEBs are available. The maximum amount of non-power cut corrupted PEBs is 8. This patch is a response to UBIFS problem where reporter (Matthew L. Creech <mlcreech@gmail.com>) observes that UBIFS index points to an unmapped LEB. The theory is that corresponding PEB somehow got corrupted and UBI wiped it. This patch (actually a series of patches) tries to make sure such PEBs are preserved - this would make it is easier to analyze the corruption.

2010-10-19UBI: add truly corrupted PEBs to corrupted listArtem Bityutskiy1-2/+74
Start using the 'corr' list and add there PEBs which look truly corrupted, which means they have corrupted VID header and the data which follows the corrupted header does not contain all 0xFF bytes. At the moment, this does not change UBI functionality much because these PEBs will be erase when scanning finishes. But the plan is to teach UBI preserving them.

2010-10-19UBI: do not put eraseblocks to the corrupted list unnecessarilyArtem Bityutskiy3-72/+90
Currently UBI maintains 2 lists of PEBs during scanning: 1. 'erase' list - PEBs which have no corruptions but should be erased 2. 'corr' list - PEBs which have some corruptions and should be erased But we do not really need 2 lists for PEBs which should be erased after scanning is done - this is redundant. So this patch makes sure all PEBs which are corrupted are moved to the head of the 'erase' list. We add them to the head to make sure they are erased first and we get rid of corruption ASAP. However, we do not remove the 'corr' list and realted functions, because the plan is to use this list for other purposes. Namely, we plan to put eraseblocks with corruption which does not look like it was caused by unclean power cut. Then we'll preserve thes PEBs in order to avoid killing potentially valuable user data. This patch also amends PEBs accounting, because it was closely tight to the 'erase'/'corr' lists separation. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>
2010-10-19UBI: separate out corrupted listArtem Bityutskiy1-11/+34

2010-10-19UBI: change cascade of ifs to switch statementsArtem Bityutskiy1-13/+32

2010-10-19UBI: rename a local variableArtem Bityutskiy1-7/+7
Rename local variable 'ec_corr' into 'ec_err' to make the code a little bit more readable. 'ec_err' is more appropriate because it sounds more like 'error when EC was read' and it looks more logical because we use it together with 'err'. Just a minor nicification which should improve the rather complex scanning code. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>
2010-10-19UBI: handle bit-flips when no header foundArtem Bityutskiy4-27/+51
Currently UBI has one small flaw - when we read EC or VID header, but find only 0xFF bytes, we return UBI_IO_FF and do not report whether we had bit-flips or not. In case of the VID header, the scanning code adds this PEB to the free list, even though there were bit-flips. Imagine the following situation: we start writing VID header to a PEB and have a power cut, so the PEB becomes unstable. When we scan and read the PEB, we get a bit-flip. Currently, UBI would just ignore this and treat the PEB as free. This patch changes UBI behavior and now UBI will schedule this PEB for erasure.

2010-10-19UBI: remove duplicate IO error codesArtem Bityutskiy4-48/+13
The 'UBI_IO_PEB_EMPTY' and 'UBI_IO_PEB_FREE' are essentially the same and mean that there are only 0xFF bytes instead of headers. Simplify UBI a little by turning them into a single 'UBI_IO_FF' error code. Also, stop maintaining commentaries in 'ubi_io_read_vid_hdr()' which are almost identical to commentaries in 'ubi_io_read_ec_hdr()'. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>
2010-10-19UBI: rename IO error codeArtem Bityutskiy5-24/+30
Rename UBI_IO_BAD_HDR_READ into UBI_IO_BAD_HDR_EBADMSG which is presumably more self-documenting and readable. Indeed, the '_READ' suffix does not tell much and even confuses, while '_EBADMSG' tells about uncorrectable ECC error, because we use -EBADMSG all over the place to represent ECC errors.

2010-10-15llseek: automatically add .llseek fopArnd Bergmann1-0/+1
All file_operations should get a .llseek operation so we can make nonseekable_open the default for future file operations without a .llseek pointer. The three cases that we can automatically detect are no_llseek, seq_lseek and default_llseek. For cases where we can we can automatically prove that the file offset is always ignored, we use noop_llseek, which maintains the current behavior of not returning an error from a seek. New drivers should normally not use noop_llseek but instead use no_llseek and call nonseekable_open at open time. Existing drivers can be converted to do the same when the maintainer knows for certain that no user code relies on calling seek on the device file. The generated code is often incorrectly indented and right now contains comments that clarify for each added line why a specific variant was chosen. In the version that gets submitted upstream, the comments will be gone and I will manually fix the indentation, because there does not seem to be a way to do that using coccinelle. Some amount of new code is currently sitting in linux-next that should get the same modifications, which I will do at the end of the merge window. Many thanks to Julia Lawall for helping me learn to write a semantic patch that does all this. ===== begin semantic patch ===== // This adds an llseek= method to all file operations, // as a preparation for making no_llseek the default. // // The rules are // - use no_llseek explicitly if we do nonseekable_open // - use seq_lseek for sequential files // - use default_llseek if we know we access f_pos // - use noop_llseek if we know we don't access f_pos, // but we still want to allow users to call lseek // @ open1 exists @ identifier nested_open; @@ nested_open(...) { <+... nonseekable_open(...) ...+> } @ open exists@ identifier open_f; identifier i, f; identifier open1.nested_open; @@ int open_f(struct inode *i, struct file *f) { <+...

Commit 0798cea8c2e1afee59686c51d27d0e96b05e42d1 "UBI: improve corrupted flash handling" broke delet-compatible volumes handling - it introduced a limit of 8 eraseblocks which may be corrupted. And delete-compatible eraseblocks are added to the "corrupted" list, so if we'd have a large delete-compatible volume, UBI would refuse it. The fix is to add delete-compatible volumes to the erase list instead. Indeed, they are corrupted, we just have to erase them. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>

Currently, when UBI attaches an MTD device and cannot reserve all 1% (by default) of PEBs for bad eraseblocks handling, it prints a warning. However, Matthew L. Creech <mlcreech@gmail.com> is not very happy to see this warning, because he did reserve enough of PEB at the beginning, but with time some PEBs became bad. The warning is not necessary in this case.

2010-06-16UBI: improve delete-compatible volumes handlingBrijesh Singh1-2/+2
When a delete-compatible volume is found, it is first added to the 'corr' list, which contains "corrupted" PEBs which should be erased, and then it is added to the used volumes tree. However, the second step should not be done. This does not cause problems in practice, because we never access delete-compattible volumes, but it is still not the right thing to do.

This patch improves the way UBI handles corrupted flash, or flash containing garbage or non-UBI data, which is the same from UBI POW. Namely, we do the following: * if 5% or more PEBs are corrupted, refuse the flash * if less than 5% PEBs are corrupted, do not refuse the flash and format these PEBs * if less than 8 PEBs are corrupted, format them silently, otherwise print a warning message.

2010-05-06UBI: init even if MTD device cannot be attached, if built into kernelMarc Kleine-Budde1-2/+23
UBI can be built into the kernel or be compiled as a kernel module. Further on the command line one can specify MTD devices to be attach to UBI while loading. In the current implementation the UBI driver refuses to load if one of the MTD devices cannot be attached. Consider: 1) UBI compiled into the kernel and 2) a MTD device specified on the command line and 3) this MTD device contains bogus data (for whatever reason). During init UBI tries to attach the MTD device is this fails the whole UBI subsystem isn't initialized. Later the userspace cannot attach any MTD to UBI because UBI isn't loaded. This patch keeps the current behaviour: if UBI is compiled as a module and a MTD device cannot be attached the UBI module cannot be loaded, but changes it for the UBI-is-built-into-the-kernel usecase. If UBI is builtin, a not attachable MTD device doen't stop UBI from initializing. This slightly modifies the behaviour if multiple MTD devices are specified on the command line. Now every MTD device is probed and, if possible, attached, i.e. a faulty MTD device doesn't stop the others from being attached.

2010-03-30include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.hTejun Heo9-0/+9
percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies. percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is used as the basis of conversion. http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py The script does the followings. * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used, gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h. * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered - alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there doesn't seem to be any matching order. * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the file. The conversion was done in the following steps. 1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400 files. 2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion, some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added inclusions to around 150 files. 3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits from #2 to make sure no file was left behind. 4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed. e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually. 5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as necessary. 6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h. 7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq). * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config. * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig * ia64 SMP allmodconfig * s390 SMP allmodconfig * alpha SMP allmodconfig * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig 8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as a separate patch and serve as bisection point. Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step 6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch. If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of the specific arch.

Passing the attribute to the low level IO functions allows all kinds of cleanups, by sharing low level IO code without requiring an own function for every piece of data. Also drivers can extend the attributes with own data fields and use that in the low level function. This makes the class attributes the same as sysdev_class attributes and plain attributes.

2010-02-01UBI: fix attaching error pathArtem Bityutskiy1-33/+30
In the error path of 'ubi_attach_mtd_dev()' we have a tricky situation: we have to release things differently depending on at which point the failure happening. Namely, if @ubi->dev is not initialized, we have to free everything ourselves. But if it was, we should not free the @ubi object, because it will be freed in the 'dev_release()' function. And we did not get this situation right. This patch introduces additional argument to the 'uif_init()' function. On exit, this argument indicates whether the final 'free(ubi)' will happen in 'dev_release()' or not. So the caller always knows how to properly release the resources. Impact: all memory is now correctly released when UBI fails to attach an MTD device. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>
