* UBI: fix NOR flash recoveryArtem Bityutskiy2009-07-071-1/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This commit fixes NOR flash recovery issues observed with Spansion S29GL512N NOR. When NOR erases, it first fills PEBs with zeroes, then sets all bytes to 0xFF. Filling with zeroes starts from the end of the PEB. And when power is cut, this results in PEBs containing correct EC and VID headers but corrupted with zeros at the end. This confuses UBI and it mistakinly accepts these PEBs and associate them with LEBs. Fis this issue by zeroing EC and VID magics before erasing PEBs, to make UBI later refuse zem.

* UBI: add notification APIDmitry Pervushin2009-06-021-0/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | UBI volume notifications are intended to create the API to get clients notified about volume creation/deletion, renaming and re-sizing. A client can subscribe to these notifications using 'ubi_volume_register()' and cancel the subscription using 'ubi_volume_unregister()'. When UBI volumes change, a blocking notifier is called. Clients also can request "added" events on all volumes that existed before client subscribed to the notifications. If we use notifications instead of calling functions like 'ubi_gluebi_xxx()', we can make the MTD emulation layer to be more flexible: build it as a separate module and load/unload it on demand.

* UBI: do not switch to R/O mode on read errorsArtem Bityutskiy2009-06-021-2/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch improves UBI errors handling. ATM UBI switches to R/O mode when the WL worker fails to read the source PEB. This means that the upper layers (e.g., UBIFS) has no chances to unmap the erroneous PEB and fix the error. This patch changes this behaviour and makes UBI put PEBs like this into a separate RB-tree, thus preventing the WL worker from hitting the same read errors again and again. But there is a 10% limit on a maximum amount of PEBs like this. If there are too much of them, UBI switches to R/O mode. Additionally, this patch teaches UBI not to panic and switch to R/O mode if after a PEB has been copied, the target LEB cannot be read back. Instead, now UBI cancels the operation and schedules the target PEB for torturing. The error paths has been tested by ingecting errors into 'ubi_eba_copy_leb()'.

* UBI: add auto-resize featureArtem Bityutskiy2008-01-251-1/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The problem: NAND flashes have different amount of initial bad physical eraseblocks (marked as bad by the manufacturer). For example, for 256MiB Samsung OneNAND flash there might be from 0 to 40 bad initial eraseblocks, which is about 2%. When UBI is used as the base system, one needs to know the exact amount of good physical eraseblocks, because this number is needed to create the UBI image which is put to the devices during production. But this number is not know, which forces us to use the minimum number of good physical eraseblocks. And UBI additionally reserves some percentage of physical eraseblocks for bad block handling (default is 1%), so we have 1-3% of PEBs reserved at the end, depending on the amount of initial bad PEBs. But it is desired to always have 1% (or more, depending on the configuration). Solution: this patch adds an "auto-resize" flag to the volume table. The volume which has the "auto-resize" flag will automatically be re-sized (enlarged) on the first UBI initialization. UBI clears the flag when the volume is re-sized. Only one volume may have the "auto-resize" flag. So, the production UBI image may have one volume with "auto-resize" flag set, and its size is automatically adjusted on the first boot of the device.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch is a preparation to make UBI devices dynamic. It adds an UBI control device which has dynamically allocated major number and registers itself as "ubi_ctrl". It does not do anything so far. The idea is that this device will allow to attach/detach MTD devices from userspace. This is symilar to what the Linux device mapper has.

* UBI: bugfix: protect from volume removalArtem Bityutskiy2007-12-261-4/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When the WL worker is moving an LEB, the volume might go away occasionally. UBI does not handle these situations correctly. This patch introduces a new mutex which serializes wear-levelling worker and the the 'ubi_wl_put_peb()' function. Now, if one puts an LEB, and its PEB is being moved, it will wait on the mutex. And because we unmap all LEBs when removing volumes, this will make the volume remove function to wait while the LEB movement finishes. Below is an example of an oops which should be fixed by this patch: Pid: 9167, comm: io_paral Not tainted (2.6.24-rc5-ubi-2.6.git #2) EIP: 0060:[<f884a379>] EFLAGS: 00010246 CPU: 0 EIP is at prot_tree_del+0x2a/0x63 [ubi] EAX: f39a90e0 EBX: 00000000 ECX: 00000000 EDX: 00000134 ESI: f39a90e0 EDI: f39a90e0 EBP: f2d55ddc ESP: f2d55dd4 DS: 007b ES: 007b FS: 00d8 GS: 0033 SS: 0068 Process io_paral (pid: 9167, ti=f2d54000 task=f72a8030 task.ti=f2d54000) Stack: f39a95f8 ef6aae50 f2d55e08 f884a511 f88538e1 f884ecea 00000134 00000000 f39a9604 f39a95f0 efea8280 00000000 f39a90e0 f2d55e40 f8847261 f8850c3c f884eaad 00000001 000000b9 00000134 00000172 000000b9 00000134 00000001 Call Trace: [<c0105227>] show_trace_log_lvl+0x1a/0x30 [<c01052e2>] show_stack_log_lvl+0xa5/0xca [<c01053d6>] show_registers+0xcf/0x21b [<c0105648>] die+0x126/0x224 [<c0119a62>] do_page_fault+0x27f/0x60d [<c037dd62>] error_code+0x72/0x78 [<f884a511>] ubi_wl_put_peb+0xf0/0x191 [ubi] [<f8847261>] ubi_eba_unmap_leb+0xaf/0xcc [ubi] [<f8843c21>] ubi_remove_volume+0x102/0x1e8 [ubi] [<f8846077>] ubi_cdev_ioctl+0x22a/0x383 [ubi] [<c017d768>] do_ioctl+0x68/0x71 [<c017d7c6>] vfs_ioctl+0x55/0x271 [<c017da15>] sys_ioctl+0x33/0x52 [<c0104152>] sysenter_past_esp+0x5f/0xa5 ======================= Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>

* UBI: fix atomic LEB change problemsArtem Bityutskiy2007-10-141-2/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When the UBI device is nearly full, i.e. all LEBs are mapped, we have only one spare LEB left - the one we reserved for WL purposes. Well, I do not count the LEBs which were reserved for bad PEB handling - suppose NOR flash for simplicity. If an "atomic LEB change operation" is run, and the WL unit is moving a LEB, we have no spare LEBs to finish the operation and fail, which is not good. Moreover, if there are 2 or more simultanious "atomic LEB change" requests, only one of them has chances to succeed, the other will fail with -ENOSPC. Not good either. This patch does 2 things: 1. Reserves one PEB for the "atomic LEB change" operation. 2. Serealize the operations so that only on of them may run at a time (by means of a mutex).

We also need mutexes to protect the buffers, but they do not cause much contantion because they are used in recovery, torture, and WL copy routines, which are called seldom.
