[U-Boot] [PATCH v7 00/13] Cleaner MTD devices management

[U-Boot] [PATCH v7 00/13] Cleaner MTD devices management

[Miquel Raynal]

The introduction of the SPI-NAND framework and, more widely, the
support of non parallel-NOR, parallel-NAND and SPI-NOR has shown that
extending U-Boot MTD devices/partitions handling was not
straightforward at all. While this first series [1] is a great step
forward, it is not actually usable due to purely software
limitations.

This series intends to:
* Do some cleanup in the MTD layer
* Add a new 'mtd' command that should replace in the future all the
  MTD-specific commands like 'nand' and 'sf'.
* Make deep changes in the partition handling by introducing a new way
  of managing MTD partitions (that soon will be also sent to the Linux
  kernel), and adding a generic 'mtdparts' environment variable parser
  in prevision of the 'mtdparts' command removal.
* The UBI command is also updated to stop messing with partitions that
  should just be declared in the 'mtdparts' variable.

People can now do the following without 'mtdids':
# setenv mtdparts "nor0=1m(some),-(more);spi-nand0=-(all)"

Partitions are visible with:
# mtd list

And UBI support is available with (for the above example):
# ubi part all

At least these two missing features will be added with further changes:
* 'mtd write' on NANDs should use by default the trimffs option (to
  avoid writing empty pages).
* 'nand bad' is a great way to know the list of detected bad-blocks
  and could be implemented in 'mtd'.

Of course, this series only applies on top of [1].

[U-Boot] [PATCH v7 01/13] lib: strto: parse all lowercase metric prefixes in ustrtoul[l]

[Miquel Raynal]

Both ustrtoul and ustrtoull interpret 1k but not 1m or 1g. Even if the
SI symbols for Mega and Giga are 'M' and 'G', certain entries of
eg. mtdparts also use (wrongly) the metric prefix 'm' and 'g'.

I do not see how parsing lowercase prefixes could break anything, so
parse them like their uppercase counterpart.

Wouldn't it be better, to use tolower() on the char and drop all the
upper case checks completely - also for the 'K' case?

[U-Boot] [PATCH v7 02/13] lib: strto: fix metric suffix parsing in strtoul[l]

[Miquel Raynal]

While 1kB or 1kiB will be parsed correctly, 1k will return the right
amount, but the metric suffix will not be escaped once the char
pointer updated. Fix this situation by simplifying the move of the
endp pointer.

Even though KiB is not equal to KB in general (at least in Linux
userspace AFAIK), lets not change this in U-Boot and always use
KiB and KB as a representation for 1024 (instead of 1000). So:

That's right I did not mentioned it in the commit log. I could
update it to reflect that it is intentional to mix 'k' and 'kiB' as a
representation of '* 12014' (already the case, but being clarified in
the above change).

[U-Boot] [PATCH v7 05/13] cmd: mtdparts: remove mandatory 'mtdparts=' prefix

[Miquel Raynal]

All U-Boot users must define the mtdparts environment variable with:
setenv mtdparts mtdparts=...

While this may ease the partition declaration job to be passed to
Linux, this is a pure software limitation and forcing this prefix is a
complete non-sense. Let the user to declare manually the mtdparts
variable without the prefix.

If I understand correctly, this double mtdparts thing comes from lazy
people who decided to build the bootargs this way:

setenv mtdparts "mtdparts=mtddev0:-(all)"
setenv bootargs "console=/dev/tty0 [...] ${mtdparts}"

instead of this way:

setenv mtdparts "mtddev0:-(all)"
setenv bootargs "console=/dev/tty0 [...] mtdparts=${mtdparts}"

Which, personally, I find much clearer.

I'm still puzzled by the real use of mtdids, I will check this week if
I didn't broke anything in the way U-Boot and Linux share the
MTD devices and their partitions.

Thanks,
Miquèl

[U-Boot] [PATCH v7 07/13] mtd: uclass: add a generic 'mtdparts' parser

[Miquel Raynal]

The current parser is very specific to U-Boot mtdparts implementation.
It does not use MTD structures like mtd_info and mtd_partition. Copy
and adapt the current parser in drivers/mtd/mtd-uclass.c (to not break
the current use of mtdparts.c itself) and write some kind of a wrapper
around the current implementation to allow other commands to benefit
from this parsing in a user-friendly way.

This new function will allocate an mtd_partition array for each
successful call. This array must be freed after use by the caller.
The given 'mtdparts' buffer pointer will be moved forward to the next
MTD device (if any, it will point towards a '\0' character otherwise).

[U-Boot] [PATCH v7 08/13] mtd: uclass: search for an equivalent MTD name with the mtdids

[Miquel Raynal]

Using an MTD device (resp. partition) name in mtdparts is simple and
straightforward. However, for a long time already, another name was
given in mtdparts to indicate a device (resp. partition) so the
"mtdids" environment variable was created to do the match.

Let's create a function that, from an MTD device (resp. partition)
name, search for the equivalent name in the "mtdparts" environment
variable thanks to the "mtdids" string.

[U-Boot] [PATCH v7 09/13] mtd: mtdpart: implement proper partition handling

[Miquel Raynal]

Instead of collecting partitions in a flat list, create a hierarchy
within the mtd_info structure: use a partitions list to keep track of
the partitions of an MTD device (which might be itself a partition of
another MTD device), a pointer to the parent device (NULL when the MTD
device is the root one, not a partition).

By also saving directly in mtd_info the offset of the partition, we
can get rid of the mtd_part structure.

[U-Boot] [PATCH v7 10/13] cmd: mtd: add 'mtd' command

[Miquel Raynal]

There should not be a 'nand' command, a 'sf' command and certainly not
a new 'spi-nand' command. Write a 'mtd' command instead to manage all
MTD devices/partitions at once. This should be the preferred way to
access any MTD device.

Maybe it is a bit misleading and I could add a comment. CONFIG_MTD
depends on CONFIG_DM. Any MTD device could be managed by the 'mtd'
command, but a lot of drivers do not make use of U-Boot DM yet, so
Boris and me thought it would help the acceptance if it could work with
all the devices (with let's say "reduced" functionalities).

Thanks,

I think giving convince way to use mtd cmd for non-dm code may not
good for long run, because non-dm drivers never convert (or may take
long time) to dm and also there may be a possibility of adding #ifndef
CONFIG_MTD in mtd  code for the sake of non-dm to work with dm code.

Indeed, that's what is done here.

[U-Boot] [PATCH v7 11/13] cmd: mtdparts: try to probe the MTD devices as a fallback

[Miquel Raynal]

Current implementation of mtdparts command errors out if the desired MTD
device is not found. Fallback to the new probe function in this case
before erroring out.

This will the save the user the need to call something like 'mtd list'
before mtdparts.

This is most likely the use case for CMD_MTD without MTD, correct?

Not exactly, I think the use case you were looking for is explained in
my previous answer and this #ifdef stands for the opposite situation,
where someone using the 'legacy' commands wants to interact with
devices with DM compliant drivers: the MTD device won't be registered
before (and thus, not accessible) the mtd_probe_device() call.

For other devices the use will have to probe manually the device, eg.
for SPI-NOR: 'sf probe 0'.

[U-Boot] [PATCH v7 12/13] cmd: ubi: clean the partition handling

[Miquel Raynal]

UBI should not mess with MTD partitions, now that the partitions are
handled in a clean way, clean the ubi command and avoid using this
uneeded extra-glue to reference the devices.

[U-Boot] [PATCH v7 13/13] cmd: mtdparts: describe as legacy

[Miquel Raynal]

The 'mtdparts' command is not needed anymore. While the environment
variable is still valid (and useful), the command has been replaced by
'mtd' which is much more close to the MTD stack and do not add its own
specific glue. The 'mtdids' variable, only used by the 'mtdparts'
command is also useless if the right MTD device name is used in the
'mtdparts' variable.
