2014-11-04libmtd: don't ignore "region index" parameter in mtd_regioninfo()Brian Norris
ioctl(MEMGETREGIONINFO) has one input parameter (regionindex) and three output parameters (info about the erase region). There are two problems in mtdinfo/libmtd here: 1. mtdinfo.c doesn't initialize its region_info_user struct, instead passing uninitialized data to mtd_regioninfo() 2. mtd_regioninfo() fails to utilize the 'regidx' parameter to fill out the regionindex parameter properly, so the garbage from mtdinfo.c is propagated to the ioctl() This means that mtdinfo will continuously probe the same (possibly out-of-range) erase region, instead of looping over the valid regions. Let's fix this in the mtd_regioninfo() helper, and at the same time, let's zero out the mtdinfo.c buffer, as an additional precaution to keep from using uninitialized data. Initial error report from Yang, when running "mtdinfo /dev/mtd0" on a Cavium 6100 board: root@CN61XX:~# mtdinfo /dev/mtd0 mtd0 Name: phys_mapped_flash Type: nor Eraseblock size: 65536 bytes, 64.0 KiB Amount of eraseblocks: 128 (8388608 bytes, 8.0 MiB) Minimum input/output unit size: 1 byte Sub-page size: 1 byte Additional erase regions: 0 Character device major/minor: 90:0 Bad blocks are allowed: false Device is writable: true libmtd: error!: MEMGETREGIONINFO ioctl failed for erase region 0 error 22 (Invalid argument) Eraseblock region 0: info is unavailable libmtd: error!: MEMGETREGIONINFO ioctl failed for erase region 1 error 22 (Invalid argument) Eraseblock region 1: info is unavailable Reported-by: Yang Wei <Wei.Yang@windriver.com> Signed-off-by: Brian Norris <computersforpeace@gmail.com>
2014-09-15libmtd: fix mtd_dev_present return value on legacy systemsGuido Martínez
On legacy systems, if "/proc/mtd" doesn't exist or gives a read error, mtd_dev_present returns -1 (since it calls legacy_dev_present), contrary to what's specified in the header file. This causes checks like if (mtd_dev_present(n)) { ... } to give false positives. Fix this by comparing the return value to 1.

2012-02-29libmtd: perform device checking firstBrian Norris

2012-02-14libmtd: fix mtd_write() issues for large data-only writesBrian Norris
ioctl(MEMWRITE) is implemented with memdup_user(), and so it allocates kernel memory in contiguous regions. This limits its usefulness for large amounts of data, since contiguous kernel memory can become scarce. I have experienced "out of memory" problems with ubiformat, for instance, which writes in eraseblock-sized regions: ... ubiformat: flashing eraseblock 12 -- 72 % complete ubiformat: page allocation failure. order:8, mode:0xd0 Call Trace: [<8043fa7c>] dump_stack+0x8/0x34 [<8008c940>] __alloc_pages_nodemask+0x408/0x618 [<800bd748>] cache_alloc_refill+0x400/0x730 [<800bdbbc>] __kmalloc+0x144/0x154 [<8009cae4>] memdup_user+0x24/0x94 [<802d04e4>] mtd_ioctl+0xba8/0xbd0 [<802d0544>] mtd_unlocked_ioctl+0x38/0x5c [<800d43c0>] do_vfs_ioctl+0xa4/0x6e4 [<800d4a44>] sys_ioctl+0x44/0xa0 [<8000f95c>] stack_done+0x20/0x40 ... libmtd: error!: MEMWRITE ioctl failed for eraseblock 12 (mtd0) error 12 (Cannot allocate memory) ubiformat: error!: cannot write eraseblock 12 error 12 (Cannot allocate memory) This error can be mitigated for now by only using ioctl(MEMWRITE) when we need to write OOB data, since we can only do this in small transactions anyway. Then, data-only transactions (like those originating from ubiformat) can be carried out with write() calls. This issue can also be solved within the kernel ioctl(), but either way, this patch is still useful, since write() is more straightforward (and efficient?) than ioctl() for data-only writes.

2011-12-12libmtd: allow write operations when MEMWRITE is not supportedBrian Norris
MEMWRITE is a recently introduced write interface for MTD; however, it is only supported on NAND flash. mtd-utils should fall back to old write methods when either ENOTTY or EOPNOTSUPP are returned. This is a showstopper when, for instance, using ubiformat on NOR, which don't have a mtd->write_oob interface (and thus don't support MEMWRITE): ubiformat: formatting eraseblock 2 -- 1 % complete libmtd: error!: MEMWRITE ioctl failed for eraseblock 2 (mtd3) error 122 (Operation not supported) Signed-off-by: Brian Norris <computersforpeace@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@linux.intel.com>
2011-09-11mtdutils: move OOB auto-layout into libmtd's mtd_writeBrian Norris
With the addition of the the new ioctl(MEMWRITE), we can use the kernel's internal OOB autoplacement option. It's a cleaner interface and avoids too much duplication of coding effort. This patch moves any legacy code (using MEMGETOOBSEL) into a legacy function in libmtd.c. It's not exactly a "pre-2.6.30" feature, so I'm not moving it to libmtd_legacy.c. Now, autoplacement features are only activated if we call mtd_write with mode == MTD_OPS_AUTO_OOB. This should fix some discrepancies for nandwrite, where we weren't handling OOB consistently (i.e., we had different functionality when the kernel did/didn't support MEMWRITE). But that also means that we now default to using MTD_OPS_PLACE_OOB instead of AUTO layout. To re-enable autoplacement, we can re-implement the `--autoplace' option that had previously rotted. This patch also cleans up a need for an extra OOB buffer in nandwrite. This has been tested a little in nandsim as well as on SLC NAND flash.

2011-06-27rewrite build system to avoid recursionMike Frysinger
The ubi-utils/src/ subdir is tossed as it just complicates things for no real gain. The dictionary.h header is relocated to the ubi-utils/include/ since other headers in there need it. The top level clean is replaced with a `find -delete` on objects, so it might prune more than necessary, but many projects now do this sort of thing and no one complained there. A "mkdep" helper generates the actual rule, and the variables are used with "foreach" to expand these automatically. The tests subdir is updated only to reflect the ubi-utils source move. Otherwise, it is left untouched as making that non-recursive isn't really worth the effort. While we're gutting things, also through in kbuild style output while building to make things more legible.

2011-06-08libmtd: improve mtd_islocked interfaceArtem Bityutskiy
This patch first of all, re-names 'mtd_islocked()' into 'mtd_is_locked()' since this seems to be the name Mike wanted, and it looks a bit nicer. This patch also makes 'mtd_is_locked()' print an error message if it fails. I'm not sure if it is good idea for a library to do so, but all functions do this, so it certainly _not_ a good idea to be inconsistent. However, for the special case, when the the "is locked" ioctl is not supported or is not valid for this device, we do not print an error message and return ENOTSUPP error code. Thus, the user can distinguish between real errors and non-fatal "not supported" cases. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>

2011-04-01libmtd: fix OOB read and write interfacev1.4.4Artem Bityutskiy
When reading and writing OOB we specify the address as absolute offset from the beginning of the MTD device. This offset is basically an absolute page offset plus the OOB offset. And it does not have to be aligned to the min. I/O unit size (NAND page size). So fix the 'do_oob_op()' function and remove incorrect checking that the offset is page-aligned. This check leads to the following errors: libmtd: error!: unaligned address 2, mtd0 page size is 2048 But obviously, the intent was to write to offset 2 of the OOB area of the very first NAND page. Instead of that incorrect check, we should check that the OOB offset we write to is within the OOB size and the length is withing the OOB size. This patch adds such check.

This patch is base on Kevin Cernekee's patch posted to the MTD mailing list. It adds MEMERASE64 support to the 'mtd_erase()' call. Now it first tries to use MEMERASE64, and if that is not supported, falls back to the old MEMERASE ioctl. This patch also introduces an 'offs64_ioctl' flag to the libmtd descriptor. However, we cannot initialize it in 'libmtd_open()', because we need an MTD device node, which we do not have in 'libmtd_open()'. Thus, we firs mark this flag as "uninitialized", and at the first invocation of 'mtd_erase()' we initialize it. This also means that we have to pass the limbtd descriptor to 'mtd_erase()', to save the flag value. This, in turn, requires tweaking 'mtd_erase()' users. This is not very nice, but good enough so far. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>
