Linus Torvalds 457fa3469a Char/Misc driver patches for 4.21-rc1
Here is the big set of char and misc driver patches for 4.21-rc1.
 
 Lots of different types of driver things in here, as this tree seems to
 be the "collection of various driver subsystems not big enough to have
 their own git tree" lately.
 
 Anyway, some highlights of the changes in here:
   - binderfs: is it a rule that all driver subsystems will eventually
     grow to have their own filesystem?  Binder now has one to handle the
     use of it in containerized systems.  This was discussed at the
     Plumbers conference a few months ago and knocked into mergable shape
     very fast by Christian Brauner.  Who also has signed up to be
     another binder maintainer, showing a distinct lack of good judgement :)
   - binder updates and fixes
   - mei driver updates
   - fpga driver updates and additions
   - thunderbolt driver updates
   - soundwire driver updates
   - extcon driver updates
   - nvmem driver updates
   - hyper-v driver updates
   - coresight driver updates
   - pvpanic driver additions and reworking for more device support
   - lp driver updates.  Yes really, it's _finally_ moved to the proper
     parallal port driver model, something I never thought I would see
     happen.  Good stuff.
   - other tiny driver updates and fixes.
 
 All of these have been in linux-next for a while with no reported

Rafał Miłecki 1186af457c mtd: keep original flags for every struct mtd_info
When allocating a new partition mtd subsystem runs internal tests in the
allocate_partition(). They may result in modifying specified flags (e.g.
dropping some /features/ like write access).

Those constraints don't have to be necessary true for subpartitions. It
may happen parent partition isn't block aligned (effectively disabling
write access) while subpartition may fit blocks nicely. In such case all
checks should be run again (starting with original flags value).

Boris Brezillon 8f347c4232 mtd: Unconditionally update ->fail_addr and ->addr in part_erase()
->fail_addr and ->addr can be updated no matter the result of
parent->_erase(), we just need to remove the code doing the same thing
in mtd_erase_callback() to avoid adjusting those fields twice.

Note that this can be done because all MTD users have been converted to
not pass an erase_info->callback() and are thus only taking the
->addr_fail and ->addr fields into account after part_erase() has
returned.

While we're at it, get rid of the erase_info->mtd field which was only
needed to let mtd_erase_callback() get the partition device back.

This commit provides the means for a standardized subtree, creating

The tree is registered in add_mtd_device, and released in

instead of custom ones, and their entries were prefixed with the

MTD already allocates backing_dev_info dynamically. Convert it to use

Boris Brezillon 477b0229ac mtd: introduce the mtd_pairing_scheme concept
MLC and TLC NAND devices are using NAND cells exposing more than one bit,
but instead of attaching all the bits in a given cell to a single NAND
page, each bit is usually attached to a different page. This concept is
called 'page pairing', and has significant impacts on the flash storage
usage.
The main problem showed by these devices is that interrupting a page
program operation may not only corrupt the page we are programming
but also the page it is paired with, hence the need to expose to MTD
users the pairing scheme information.

The pairing APIs allows one to query pairing information attached to a
given page (here called wunit), or the other way around (the wunit
pointed by pairing information).
It also provides several helpers to help the conversion between absolute
offsets and wunits, and query the number of pairing groups.

Boris Brezillon adbbc3bc82 mtd: create an mtd_ooblayout_ops struct to ease ECC layout definition
ECC layout definitions are currently exposed using the nand_ecclayout
struct which embeds oobfree and eccpos arrays with predefined size.
This approach was acceptable when NAND chips were providing relatively
small OOB regions, but MLC and TLC now provide OOB regions of several
hundreds of bytes, which implies a non negligible overhead for everybody
even those who only need to support legacy NANDs.

Create an mtd_ooblayout_ops interface providing the same functionality
(expose the ECC and oobfree layout) without the need for this huge
structure.

The mtd->ecclayout is now deprecated and should be replaced by the
equivalent mtd_ooblayout_ops. In the meantime we provide a wrapper around
the ->ecclayout field to ease migration to this new model.

Christoph Hellwig b4caecd480 fs: introduce f_op->mmap_capabilities for nommu mmap support
Since "BDI: Provide backing device capability information [try #3]" the
backing_dev_info structure also provides flags for the kind of mmap
operation available in a nommu environment, which is entirely unrelated
to it's original purpose.

Introduce a new nommu-only file operation to provide this information to
the nommu mmap code instead.  Splitting this from the backing_dev_info
structure allows to remove lots of backing_dev_info instance that aren't
otherwise needed, and entirely gets rid of the concept of providing a
backing_dev_info for a character device.  It also removes the need for
the mtd_inodefs filesystem.

Huang Shijie c41a0582d5 mtd: add a new ecc_step_size field to mtd_info{}
In order to implement the NAND boot for some Freescale's chips, such as
imx23/imx28/imx50/imx6, we use a tool (called kobs-ng) to burn the uboot
and some metadata to nand chip. And the ROM code will use the metadata to
configrate the BCH, and to find the uboot.

The ECC information(ecc step size, ecc strength) which is used to configrure
the BCH is part of the metadata. The kobs-ng can get the ecc strength from
the sys node /sys/*/ecc_strength now. But it can not get the ecc step size.

This patch adds a new field to store the ecc step size in mtd_info{}, and
it makes preparation for the next patches.

An element 'bitflip_threshold' is added to struct mtd_info, and also exposed as
a read/write variable in sysfs.  This will be used to determine whether or not
mtd_read() returns -EUCLEAN or 0 (absent a hard error).  If the driver leaves it
as zero, mtd will set it to a default value of ecc_strength.

This v2 adds the line that propagates bitflip_threshold from the master to the
partitions - thanks Ivan¹.

because, as was pointed out¹, bit errors in excess of the strength of one

Artem Bityutskiy 3c3c10bba1 mtd: add leading underscore to all mtd functions
This patch renames all MTD functions by adding a "_" prefix:

mtd->erase -> mtd->_erase
mtd->read_oob -> mtd->_read_oob
...

The reason is that we are re-working the MTD API and from now on it is
an error to use MTD function pointers directly - we have a corresponding
API call for every pointer. By adding a leading "_" we achieve the following:

1. Make sure we convert every direct pointer users
2. A leading "_" suggests that this interface is internal and it becomes
   less likely that people will use them directly
3. Make sure all the out-of-tree modules stop compiling and the owners
   spot the big API change and amend them.

Artem Bityutskiy 7d73101921 mtd: fix merge conflict resolution breakage
This patch fixes merge conflict resolution breakage introduced by merge
d3712b9dfc ("Merge tag 'for-linus' of git://github.com/prasad-joshi/logfs_upstream").

The commit changed 'mtd_can_have_bb()' function and made it always
return zero, which is incorrect.  Instead, we need it to return whether
the underlying flash device can have bad eraseblocks or not.  UBI needs
this information because it affects how it handles the underlying flash.
E.g., if the underlying flash is NOR, it cannot have bad blocks and any
write or erase error is fatal, and all we can do is to switch to R/O
mode.  We do not need to reserve a pool of good eraseblocks for bad
eraseblocks handling, and so on.

This patch also removes 'mtd_can_have_bb()' invocations from Logfs to
ensure correct Logfs behavior.

I've tested that with this patch UBI works on top of NOR and NAND
flashes emulated by mtdram and nandsim correspondingly.

This patch is based on patch from Linus Torvalds.

There are few important bug fixes for LogFS

* tag 'for-linus' of git://github.com/prasad-joshi/logfs_upstream:
  Logfs: Allow NULL block_isbad() methods
  logfs: Grow inode in delete path

  logfs: set superblock shutdown flag after generic sb shutdown
  logfs: take write mutex lock during fsync and sync
  logfs: Prevent memory corruption
  logfs: update page reference count for pined pages

Fix up conflict in fs/logfs/dev_mtd.c due to semantic change in what
"mtd->block_isbad" means in commit f2933e86ad93: "Logfs: Allow NULL
block_isbad() methods" clashing with the abstraction changes in the
commits 7086c19d0742: "mtd: introduce mtd_block_isbad interface" and
d58b27ed58a3: "logfs: do not use 'mtd->block_isbad' directly".

This resolution takes the semantics from commit f2933e86ad, and just
makes mtd_block_isbad() return zero (false) if the 'block_isbad'
function is NULL.  But that also means that now "mtd_can_have_bb()"
always returns 0.

Now, "mtd_block_markbad()" will obviously return an error if the
low-level driver doesn't support bad blocks, so this is somewhat
non-symmetric, but it actually makes sense if a NULL "block_isbad"
function is considered to mean "I assume that all my blocks are always
good".
