mtd: Support kmsg dumper based on pstore/blk

2020-06-01T02:49:01+00:00

This introduces mtdpstore, which is similar to mtdoops but more powerful. It uses pstore/blk, and aims to store panic and oops logs to a flash partition, where pstore can later read back and present as files in the mounted pstore filesystem. To make mtdpstore work, the "blkdev" of pstore/blk should be set as MTD device name or MTD device number. For more details, see Documentation/admin-guide/pstore-blk.rst This solves a number of issues: - Work duplication: both of pstore and mtdoops do the same job storing panic/oops log. They have very similar logic, registering to kmsg dumper and storing logs to several chunks one by one. - Layer violations: drivers should provides methods instead of polices. MTD should provide read/write/erase operations, and allow a higher level drivers to provide the chunk management, kmsg dump configuration, etc. - Missing features: pstore provides many additional features, including presenting the logs as files, logging dump time and count, and supporting other frontends like pmsg, console, etc. Signed-off-by: WeiXiong Liao Link: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20200511233229.27745-11-keescook@chromium.org/ Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/1589266715-4168-1-git-send-email-liaoweixiong@allwinnertech.com Signed-off-by: Kees Cook

mtd: Add support for HyperBus memory devices

2019-06-27T17:47:58+00:00

Cypress' HyperBus is Low Signal Count, High Performance Double Data Rate Bus interface between a host system master and one or more slave interfaces. HyperBus is used to connect microprocessor, microcontroller, or ASIC devices with random access NOR flash memory (called HyperFlash) or self refresh DRAM (called HyperRAM). Its a 8-bit data bus (DQ[7:0]) with Read-Write Data Strobe (RWDS) signal and either Single-ended clock(3.0V parts) or Differential clock (1.8V parts). It uses ChipSelect lines to select b/w multiple slaves. At bus level, it follows a separate protocol described in HyperBus specification[1]. HyperFlash follows CFI AMD/Fujitsu Extended Command Set (0x0002) similar to that of existing parallel NORs. Since HyperBus is x8 DDR bus, its equivalent to x16 parallel NOR flash with respect to bits per clock cycle. But HyperBus operates at >166MHz frequencies. HyperRAM provides direct random read/write access to flash memory array. But, HyperBus memory controllers seem to abstract implementation details and expose a simple MMIO interface to access connected flash. Add support for registering HyperFlash devices with MTD framework. MTD maps framework along with CFI chip support framework are used to support communicating with flash. Framework is modelled along the lines of spi-nor framework. HyperBus memory controller (HBMC) drivers calls hyperbus_register_device() to register a single HyperFlash device. HyperFlash core parses MMIO access information from DT, sets up the map_info struct, probes CFI flash and registers it with MTD framework. Some HBMC masters need calibration/training sequence[3] to be carried out, in order for DLL inside the controller to lock, by reading a known string/pattern. This is done by repeatedly reading CFI Query Identification String. Calibration needs to be done before trying to detect flash as part of CFI flash probe. HyperRAM is not supported at the moment. HyperBus specification can be found at[1] HyperFlash datasheet can be found at[2] [1] https://www.cypress.com/file/213356/download [2] https://www.cypress.com/file/213346/download [3] http://www.ti.com/lit/ug/spruid7b/spruid7b.pdf Table 12-5741.

mtd: Move onenand code base to drivers/mtd/nand/onenand

2018-03-15T14:40:37+00:00

Move onenand code base to the drivers/mtd/nand directory in the hope that someday someone will patch it to use the generic NAND helpers. If it never happens, at least we'll have all NAND related support in a single directory and not spread over the drivers/mtd/ directory. Signed-off-by: Boris Brezillon
