2006-09-25[MTD] Remove #ifndef __KERNEL__ hack in <mtd/mtd-abi.h>David Woodhouse
Now that we have headers_install, we don't need this crap. Signed-off-by: David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org>
2006-09-22[MTD] Unlock NOR flash automatically where necessaryHåvard Skinnemoen
Introduce the MTD_STUPID_LOCK flag which indicates that the flash chip is always locked after power-up, so all sectors need to be unlocked before it is usable. If this flag is set, and the chip provides an unlock() operation, mtd_add_device will unlock the whole MTD device if it's writeable. This means that non-writeable partitions will stay locked. Set MTD_STUPID_LOCK in fixup_use_atmel_lock() so that these chips will work as expected.

2006-06-29MTD: kernel-doc fixes + additionsRandy Dunlap
Fix some kernel-doc typos/spellos. Use kernel-doc syntax in places where it was almost used. Correct/add struct, struct field, and function param names where needed. Signed-off-by: Randy Dunlap <rdunlap@xenotime.net> Signed-off-by: David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org>
2006-06-20Merge git://git.infradead.org/hdrcleanup-2.6Linus Torvalds
* git://git.infradead.org/hdrcleanup-2.6: (63 commits) [S390] __FD_foo definitions. Switch to __s32 types in joystick.h instead of C99 types for consistency. Add <sys/types.h> to headers included for userspace in <linux/input.h> Move inclusion of <linux/compat.h> out of user scope in asm-x86_64/mtrr.h Remove struct fddi_statistics from user view in <linux/if_fddi.h> Move user-visible parts of drivers/s390/crypto/z90crypt.h to include/asm-s390 Revert include/media changes: Mauro says those ioctls are only used in-kernel(!) Include <linux/types.h> and use __uXX types in <linux/cramfs_fs.h> Use __uXX types in <linux/i2o_dev.h>, include <linux/ioctl.h> too Remove private struct dx_hash_info from public view in <linux/ext3_fs.h> Include <linux/types.h> and use __uXX types in <linux/affs_hardblocks.h> Use __uXX types in <linux/divert.h> for struct divert_blk et al. Use __u32 for elf_addr_t in <asm-powerpc/elf.h>, not u32. It's user-visible. Remove PPP_FCS from user view in <linux/ppp_defs.h>, remove __P mess entirely Use __uXX types in user-visible structures in <linux/nbd.h> Don't use 'u32' in user-visible struct ip_conntrack_old_tuple. Use __uXX types for S390 DASD volume label definitions which are user-visible S390 BIODASDREADCMB ioctl should use __u64 not u64 type. Remove unneeded inclusion of <linux/time.h> from <linux/ufs_fs.h> Fix private integer types used in V4L2 ioctls. ... Manually resolve conflict in include/linux/mtd/physmap.h
2006-06-14[MTD] Restore MTD_ROM and MTD_RAM typesDavid Woodhouse
Let's not attempt the abolition of mtd->type until/unless it's properly thought through. And certainly, let's not do it by halves. Signed-off-by: David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org>
2006-05-30[MTD] replace MTD_RAM with MTD_GENERIC_TYPEJoern Engel
Ram devices get the extra capability of MTD_NO_ERASE - not requiring an explicit erase before writing to it. Currently only mtdblock uses this capability. Rest of the patch is a simple text replacement. Signed-off-by: Joern Engel <joern@wh.fh-wedel.de>
2006-05-30[MTD] replace MTD_ROM with MTD_GENERIC_TYPEJoern Engel
No mtd user should ever check for the device type. Instead, device features should be checked by the flags - if at all. As a first step towards type removal, change MTD_ROM into MTD_GENERIC_TYPE. Signed-off-by: Joern Engel <joern@wh.fh-wedel.de>
2006-05-30[MTD] NAND Expose the new raw mode function and status info to userspaceThomas Gleixner
The raw read/write access to NAND (without ECC) has been changed in the NAND rework. Expose the new way - setting the file mode via ioctl - to userspace. Also allow to read out the ecc statistics information so userspace tools can see that bitflips happened and whether errors where correctable or not. Also expose the number of bad blocks for the partition, so nandwrite can check if the data fits into the parition before writing to it. Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
2006-05-29[MTD] NAND Replace oobinfo by ecclayoutThomas Gleixner
The nand_oobinfo structure is not fitting the newer error correction demands anymore. Replace it by struct nand_ecclayout and fixup the users all over the place. Keep the nand_oobinfo based ioctl for user space compability reasons. Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
2006-05-22[MTD] Introduce MTD_BIT_WRITEABLEJoern Engel
o Add a flag MTD_BIT_WRITEABLE for devices that allow single bits to be cleared. o Replace MTD_PROGRAM_REGIONS with a cleared MTD_BIT_WRITEABLE flag for STMicro and Intel Sibley flashes with internal ECC. Those flashes disallow clearing of single bits, unlike regular NOR flashes, so the new flag models their behaviour better. o Remove MTD_ECC. After the STMicro/Sibley merge, this flag is only set and never checked. Signed-off-by: Joern Engel <joern@wh.fh-wedel.de>
2006-05-22[MTD] Introduce writesizeJoern Engel
At least two flashes exists that have the concept of a minimum write unit, similar to NAND pages, but no other NAND characteristics. Therefore, rename the minimum write unit to "writesize" for all flashes, including NAND. Signed-off-by: Joern Engel <joern@wh.fh-wedel.de>
2006-05-22[MTD] Use single flag to mark writeable devices.Joern Engel
Two flags exist to decide whether a device is writeable or not. None of those two flags is checked for independently, so they are clearly redundant, if not an invitation to bugs. This patch removed both of them, replacing them with a single new flag. Signed-off-by: Joern Engel <joern@wh.fh-wedel.de>
2006-04-25Move comment in mtd-abi.h to stop confusing unifdefDavid Woodhouse
Currently, unifdef removes the comment which starts on the same line as the #ifdef __KERNEL__, but leaves the second line of the comment in place. Move the comment onto a separate line. Signed-off-by: David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org>

2005-11-06{MTD] add support for Intel's "Sibley" flashNicolas Pitre
This updates the Primary Vendor-Specific Extended Query parsing to version 1.4 in order to get the information about the Configurable Programming Mode regions implemented in the Sibley flash, as well as selecting the appropriate write command code. This flash does not behave like traditional NOR flash when writing data. While mtdblock should just work, further changes are needed for JFFS2 use.

2005-05-23[JFFS2] Add support for JFFS2-on-Dataflash devices.Andrew Victor
For Dataflash, can_mark_obsolete = false and the NAND write buffering code (wbuf.c) is used. Since the DataFlash chip will automatically erase pages when writing, the cleanmarkers are not needed - so cleanmarker_oob = false and cleanmarker_size = 0 DataFlash page-sizes are not a power of two (they're multiples of 528 bytes). The SECTOR_ADDR macro (added in the previous core patch) is replaced with a (slower) div/mod version if CONFIG_JFFS2_FS_DATAFLASH is selected.

2005-05-23[MTD] User interface to Protection RegistersNicolas Pitre
This is implemented using a ioctl to switch the MTD char device into one of the different OTP "modes", at which point read/write/seek can operate on the selected OTP area. Also some extra ioctls to query for size and lock protection segments or groups. Some example user space utilities are provided.

2005-05-23[MTD] Support for protection register support on Intel FLASH chipsNicolas Pitre
This enables support for reading, writing and locking so called "Protection Registers" present on some flash chips. A subset of them are pre-programmed at the factory with a unique set of values. The rest is user-programmable. Signed-off-by: Nicolas Pitre <nico@cam.org> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
2005-04-16Linux-2.6.12-rc2Linus Torvalds
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
