Corner case reads do not work, and return false data and
ECC. This case is typically seen in a ubifs usage, with a
read of type:
- docg3 docg3: doc_read_oob(from=14882415, mode=1,
data=(c30eca40:12), oob=( (null):0))
This results in the following reads:
- docg3 docg3: doc_read_data_area(buf= (null), len=111)
- docg3 docg3: doc_read_data_area(buf=c30eca40, len=12)
- docg3 docg3: doc_read_data_area(buf= (null), len=389)
- docg3 docg3: doc_read_data_area(buf= (null), len=0)
- docg3 docg3: doc_read_data_area(buf= (null), len=16)
If we suppose that the pages content is :
- bytes 0 .. 111 : 0x0a
- bytes 112 .. 255 : 0x0f
Then the returned bytes will be :
- 111 times 0x0a (correct)
- 0x0a 2 times and 0x0f 10 times (incorrect, should be
0x0a,0x0f)
- 0x0f 389 times (correct)
- nothing
- correct OOB
The reason seams that the first 111 bytes read ends between
the 2 docg3 planes, and that the first following read (in
the 12 bytes sequence, read of 16 bit word) returns the byte
of the rightmost plane duplicated in high and lower byte of
the word.
Fix this behaviour by ensuring that if the previous read
ended up in-between the 2 planes, there will be a first 1
byte read to get back to the beginning of leftmost plane.

Unlike file data integrity the xattr data integrity was not checked
before some explicit access to the attribute was made.
This could leave in the system a number of corrupted extended attributes
which will be detected only at access time and possibly at a very late
time compared to the time the corruption actually happened.
This patch adds the ability to check for extended attribute integrity
on first GC scan pass (similar to file data integrity check). This allows
for all present attributes to be completly verified before any use of them.
In order to work correctly this patch also needs the patch allowing
JFFS2 to discriminate between recoverable and non recoverable errors
on extended attributes.

This patch is basically a revert of commit f326966b3d.
It allows JFFS2 to make the distinction between a potential transient
error (reading or writing the media) and a non recoverable error like a
bad CRC on the extended attribute data or some insconsitent parameters.
In order to make clear that the error is indeed intended to report a
corrupted attribute, a new local error code (JFFS2_XATTR_IS_CORRUPTED)
is introduced rather than returning a confusing positive EIO, which is
what led to the inappropriate "fix" last time.
This error code is never reported to user space and only checked locally
in this file.

Two modes are supported: 4-bit and 8-bit error correction.
Note that 4-bit mode is only confirmed to work on OMAP3630 ES 1.x,
x >= 1. The OMAP3 GPMC hardware BCH engine computes remainder
polynomials, it does not provide automatic error location and
correction: this step is implemented using the BCH library.
This implementation only protects page data, there is no support
for protecting user-defined spare area bytes (this could be added
with few modifications); therefore, it cannot be used with YAFFS2
or other similar filesystems that depend on oob storage.
Before being stored to nand flash, hardware BCH ecc is adjusted
so that an erased page has a valid ecc; thus allowing correction of
bitflips in blank pages (also common on 4-bit devices).
BCH correction mode is selected at runtime by setting platform data
parameter 'ecc_opt' to value OMAP_ECC_BCH4_CODE_HW or
OMAP_ECC_BCH8_CODE_HW.
This code has been tested with mtd test modules, UBI and UBIFS on a
BeagleBoard revC3 (OMAP3530 ES3.0 + Micron NAND 256MiB 1,8V 16-bit).

This patch adds a simple BCH ecc computation api, similar to the
existing Hamming ecc api. It is intended to be used by the MTD layer.
It implements the following features:
- support 4-bit and 8-bit ecc computation
- do not protect user bytes in spare area, only data area is protected
- ecc for an erased NAND page (0xFFs) is also a sequence of 0xFFs
This last feature is obtained by adding a constant polynomial to
the hardware computed ecc. It allows to correct bitflips in blank pages
and is extremely useful to support filesystems such as UBIFS, which expect
erased pages to contain only 0xFFs.
This api has been tested on an OMAP3630 board.

Currently JFFS2 file-system maps the VFS "superblock" abstraction to the
write-buffer. Namely, it uses VFS services to synchronize the write-buffer
periodically.
The whole "superblock write-out" VFS infrastructure is served by the
'sync_supers()' kernel thread, which wakes up every 5 (by default) seconds and
writes out all dirty superblock using the '->write_super()' call-back. But the
problem with this thread is that it wastes power by waking up the system every
5 seconds no matter what. So we want to kill it completely and thus, we need to
make file-systems to stop using the '->write_super' VFS service, and then
remove it together with the kernel thread.
This patch switches the JFFS2 write-buffer management from
'->write_super()'/'->s_dirt' to a delayed work. Instead of setting the 's_dirt'
flag we just schedule a delayed work for synchronizing the write-buffer.

New NAND controllers can perform read/write via HW engines which don't expose
OOB data in their DMA mode. To reflect this, we should rework the nand_chip /
nand_ecc_ctrl interfaces that assume that drivers will always read/write OOB
data in the nand_chip.oob_poi buffer. A better interface includes a boolean
argument that explicitly tells the callee when OOB data is requested by the
calling layer (for reading/writing to/from nand_chip.oob_poi).
This patch adds the 'oob_required' parameter to each relevant {read,write}_page
interface; all 'oob_required' parameters are left unused for now. The next
patch will set the parameter properly in the nand_base.c callers, and follow-up
patches will make use of 'oob_required' in some of the callee functions.
Note that currently, there is no harm in ignoring the 'oob_required' parameter
and *always* utilizing nand_chip.oob_poi, but there can be
performance/complexity/design benefits from avoiding filling oob_poi in the
common case. I will try to implement this for some drivers which can be ported
easily.
Note: I couldn't compile-test all of these easily, as some had ARCH
dependencies.

The drivers' _read() method, absent an error, returns a non-negative integer
indicating the maximum number of bit errors that were corrected in any one
region comprising an ecc step. MTD returns -EUCLEAN if this is >=
bitflip_threshold, 0 otherwise. If bitflip_threshold is zero, the comparison is
not made since these devices lack ECC and always return zero in the non-error
case (thanks Brian)¹. Note that this is a subtle change to the driver
interface.
This and the preceding patches in this set were tested with ubi on top of the
nandsim and docg4 devices, running the ubi test io_basic from mtd-utils.
