17 years ago[MTD] Support combined RedBoot FIS directory and configuration area
Rod Whitby [Wed, 6 Dec 2006 01:41:15 +0000 (12:11 +1030)]
[MTD] Support combined RedBoot FIS directory and configuration area

RedBoot supports storing the FIS directory and the RedBoot
configuration area in the same block of flash memory.  This is
not the most common RedBoot configuration, but it is used on
commercially available boards supported by the kernel.

A recent patch to mtd/redboot.c (http://lkml.org/lkml/2006/3/20/410)
which corrected the skipping of deleted table entries has exposed the
latent problem of the kernel redboot parser running off the end of the
FIS directory and interpreting the RedBoot configuration information
as table entries.

This patch terminates the table parsing when the first truly empty
entry is found (table entry deletion only clears the first byte of the
name, so two cleared bytes in a row indicates the end of the table),
thereby supporting the combined redboot FIS directory and RedBoot
configuration information flash layout scenario.

[MTD] Use EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL() for exported symbols.

While we're fixing up the newly-added symbol, change the neighbouring ones
too, for consistency and also to reflect the author's interpretation of
the GPL -- which is that _no_ non-GPL modules are permitted. The author
always intended his code to be released under the GPL, and believes that
any new interpretation of 'EXPORT_SYMBOL' as being any different from
'EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL' is entirely invalid; the GPL requires that _all_
exports have the semantics of the new 'EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL', which means the
extra four characters are entirely redundant.

But since those four extra characters trigger the check for illegal
modules in a way that just EXPORT_SYMBOL does not, it's useful to change
anyway. This action in no way indicates an admission that there is any
legal distinction between the two states, and in particular does not

[MTD] [NAND] remove len/ooblen confusion.

As was discussed between Ricard Wanderlöf, David Woodhouse, Artem
Bityutskiy and me, the current API for reading/writing OOB is confusing.

The thing that introduces confusion is the need to specify ops.len
together with ops.ooblen for reads/writes that concern only OOB not data
area. So, ops.len is overloaded: when ops.datbuf != NULL it serves to
specify the length of the data read, and when ops.datbuf == NULL, it
serves to specify the full OOB read length.

The patch inlined below is the slightly updated version of the previous
patch serving the same purpose, but with the new Artem's comments taken
into account.

Artem, BTW, thanks a lot for your valuable input!

[PATCH] uml: make execvp safe for our usage

Reimplement execvp for our purposes - after we call fork() it is fundamentally
unsafe to use the kernel allocator - current is not valid there.  So we simply
pass to our modified execvp() a preallocated buffer.  This fixes a real bug
and works very well in testing (I've seen indirectly warning messages from the
forked thread - they went on the pipe connected to its stdout and where read
as a number by UML, when calling read_output().  I verified the obtained
number corresponded to "BUG:").

The added use of __cant_sleep() is not a new bug since __cant_sleep() is
already used in the same function - passing an atomicity parameter would be
better but it would require huge change, stating that this function must not
be called in atomic context and can sleep is a better idea (will make sure of
this gradually).

Make it break or warn if you pass to spin_lock_irqsave() and friends
something different from "unsigned long flags;".  Suprisingly large amount
of these was caught by recent commit
c53421b18f205c5f97c604ae55c6a921f034b0f6 and others.

Idea is largely from FRV typechecking. Suggestions from Andrew Morton.
All stupid typos in first version fixed.

Passes allmodconfig on i386, x86_64, alpha, arm as well as my usual config.

Note #1: checking with sparse is still needed, because a driver can save
 and pass around flags or something. So far patch is very intrusive.
Note #2: techically, we should break only if
sizeof(flags) < sizeof(unsigned long),
 however, the more pain for getting suspicious code into kernel,
 the better.
