Artem Bityutskiy 6bef0b6747 UBI: do not select KALLSYMS_ALL
All UBI needs is to make sure we stacktraces when UBI debugging
is enabled. It is enough to select KALLSYMS for this, KALLSYMS_ALL
is not necessary.

And the current Kconfig line we have:

select KALLSYMS_ALL if KALLSYMS && DEBUG_KERNEL

is just too complex to be sane and right. But this "if" part there
is needed to prevent "unmet direct dependency" warnings, because
KALLSYMS_ALL depends on KALLSYMS and DEBUG_KERNEL, so we cannot
just select KALLSYMS_ALL.

Anyway, this feels messy, and we do not seem to really need KALLSYMS_ALL,
so select KALLSYMS instead.

Artem Bityutskiy 3efe509070 UBI: check if we are in RO mode in the erase routine
'do_sync_erase()' has to check whether we are in R/O mode before
erasing the PEB. This patch adds the check and while on it, adds an
assertion which validates the 'pnum' argument, as well as removes
a check which is always true because it has already been done
few lines before.

Similarly to the debugging checks and message, make the test modes
be dynamically selected via the "debug_tsts" module parameter or

Artem Bityutskiy 6edb979395 UBI: kill debugging buffer
This patch kills the 'ubi->dbg_peb_buf' debugging buffer and the
associated mutex, because all users of this buffer are now gone.
We are killing this buffer because we are going to switch to
dynamic debugging control, just like in UBIFS, which means that
CONFIG_MTD_UBI_DEBUG_PARANOID will be removed. In this case we'd
end up always allocating 'ubi->dbg_peb_buf', which is rather large
(128KiB or more), and this would be wasteful. Thus, we are just
killing it.

Artem Bityutskiy a87f29cbbc UBI: always re-read in case of read failures
When the read operation fails, UBI tries to re-read several times in
a hope that one of the subsequent reads may succeed. However, currently
UBI re-reads only if MTD failed to read all data, but does not re-reads
if all the data were read, but with an integrity error (-EBADMSB). This
patch makes UBI to always re-try reading.

This should be useful for reading NAND pages with unstable bits -
re-reading may help to get correct data.

Artem Bityutskiy 276832d878 UBI: try to reveal buggy MTD drivers
When reading data from the flash, corrupt the buffer we are about to
read to. The idea is to fix the following possible situation:

1. The buffer contains data from previous operation, e.g., read from
   another PEB previously. The data looks like expected, e.g., if we
   just do not read anything and return - the caller would not
   notice this. E.g., if we are reading a VID header, the buffer may
   contain a valid VID header from another PEB.
2. The driver is buggy and returns use success or -EBADMSG or
   -EUCLEAN, but it does not actually put any data to the buffer.

This may confuse UBI or upper layers - they may think the buffer
contains valid data while in fact it is just old data.

Thus, try to reveal such buggy MTD drivers with simple debugging
code which fills the read buffer with 0x12 constant.

Anatolij Gustschin a121f64399 UBI: use mtd->writebufsize to set minimal I/O unit size
Previously we used mtd->writesize field to set UBI's minimal
I/O unit size. This sometimes caused UBIFS recovery issues
when mounting an uncleanly unmounted UBIFS partition on NOR
flash since mtd->writesize is 1 byte for NOR flash. The
MTD CFI driver however often performs writing multiple
bytes in one programming operation using the chip's write
buffer. We have to use the size of this write buffer as
a minimal I/O unit size for UBI on NOR flash to fix the
observed UBIFS recovery issues.

Artem Bityutskiy 7ac760c2f7 UBI: fix corrupted PEB detection for NOR flash
My new shiny code for corrupted PEB detection has NOR specific bug.
We tread PEB as corrupted and preserve it, if

1. EC header is OK.
2. VID header is corrupted.
3. data area is not "all 0xFFs"

In case of NOR we have 'nor_erase_prepare()' quirk, which invalidates
the headers before erasing the PEB. And we invalidate first the VID
header, and then the EC header. So if a power cut happens after we have
invalidated the VID header, but before we have invalidated the EC
header, we end up with a PEB which satisfies the above 3 conditions,
and the scanning code will treat it as corrupted, and will print
scary warnings, wrongly.

This patch fixes the issue by firt invalidating the EC header, then
invalidating the VID header. In case of power cut inbetween, we still
just lose the EC header, and UBI can deal with this situation gracefully.

Thanks to Anatolij Gustschin <agust@denx.de> for tracking this down.

Artem Bityutskiy 5fc01ab693 UBI: preserve corrupted PEBs
Currently UBI erases all corrupted eraseblocks, irrespectively of the nature
of corruption: corruption due to power cuts and non-power cut corruption.
The former case is OK, but the latter is not, because UBI may destroy
potentially important data.

With this patch, during scanning, when UBI hits a PEB with corrupted VID
header, it checks whether this PEB contains only 0xFF data. If yes, it is
safe to erase this PEB and it is put to the 'erase' list. If not, this may
be important data and it is better to avoid erasing this PEB. Instead,
UBI puts it to the corr list and moves out of the pool of available PEB.
IOW, UBI preserves this PEB.

Such corrupted PEB lessen the amount of available PEBs. So the more of them
we accumulate, the less PEBs are available. The maximum amount of non-power
cut corrupted PEBs is 8.

This patch is a response to UBIFS problem where reporter
(Matthew L. Creech <mlcreech@gmail.com>) observes that UBIFS index points
to an unmapped LEB. The theory is that corresponding PEB somehow got
corrupted and UBI wiped it. This patch (actually a series of patches)
tries to make sure such PEBs are preserved - this would make it is easier
to analyze the corruption.

Artem Bityutskiy 0525dac9fd UBI: do not put eraseblocks to the corrupted list unnecessarily
Currently UBI maintains 2 lists of PEBs during scanning:
1. 'erase' list - PEBs which have no corruptions but should be erased
2. 'corr' list - PEBs which have some corruptions and should be erased

But we do not really need 2 lists for PEBs which should be erased after
scanning is done - this is redundant. So this patch makes sure all PEBs
which are corrupted are moved to the head of the 'erase' list. We add
them to the head to make sure they are erased first and we get rid of
corruption ASAP.

However, we do not remove the 'corr' list and realted functions, because
the plan is to use this list for other purposes. Namely, we plan to
put eraseblocks with corruption which does not look like it was caused
by unclean power cut. Then we'll preserve thes PEBs in order to avoid
killing potentially valuable user data.

This patch also amends PEBs accounting, because it was closely tight to
the 'erase'/'corr' lists separation.

manipulation from the common 'add_to_list()' function. This is just a
preparation for further changes - this patch does not change functionality.

Artem Bityutskiy b33215084c UBI: change cascade of ifs to switch statements
This patch improves readability and simplifies scanning code by changing a
long cascade of 'if' statements to a switch statement. This should presumably
be a little faster as well.

Artem Bityutskiy e0e718c281 UBI: rename a local variable
Rename local variable 'ec_corr' into 'ec_err' to make the code a little bit
more readable. 'ec_err' is more appropriate because it sounds more like 'error
when EC was read' and it looks more logical because we use it together with
'err'. Just a minor nicification which should improve the rather complex
scanning code.

Artem Bityutskiy 92e1a7d9e7 UBI: handle bit-flips when no header found
Currently UBI has one small flaw - when we read EC or VID header, but find only
0xFF bytes, we return UBI_IO_FF and do not report whether we had bit-flips or
not. In case of the VID header, the scanning code adds this PEB to the free list,
even though there were bit-flips.

Imagine the following situation: we start writing VID header to a PEB and have a
power cut, so the PEB becomes unstable. When we scan and read the PEB, we get
a bit-flip. Currently, UBI would just ignore this and treat the PEB as free. This
patch changes UBI behavior and now UBI will schedule this PEB for erasure.

Artem Bityutskiy 74d82d2660 UBI: remove duplicate IO error codes
The 'UBI_IO_PEB_EMPTY' and 'UBI_IO_PEB_FREE' are essentially the same
and mean that there are only 0xFF bytes instead of headers. Simplify
UBI a little by turning them into a single 'UBI_IO_FF' error code.

Also, stop maintaining commentaries in 'ubi_io_read_vid_hdr()' which are
almost identical to commentaries in 'ubi_io_read_ec_hdr()'.

Artem Bityutskiy 756e1df1d2 UBI: rename IO error code
Rename UBI_IO_BAD_HDR_READ into UBI_IO_BAD_HDR_EBADMSG which is presumably more
self-documenting and readable. Indeed, the '_READ' suffix does not tell much and
even confuses, while '_EBADMSG' tells about uncorrectable ECC error, because we
use -EBADMSG all over the place to represent ECC errors.

H Hartley Sweeten 1dd786328f UBI: cleanup and simplify Kconfig
Cleanup the Kconfig for UBI by using menuconfig to enable/disable the entire
driver. Remove the dependency checks for MTD_UBI and MTD_UBI_DEBUG by
wrapping the options in if/endif blocks and remove any redundant checks.
Remove all default n since that is the Kconfig default. Change menu "Additional
UBI debugging messages" into a comment to remove one menu level.

Arnd Bergmann 6038f373a3 llseek: automatically add .llseek fop
All file_operations should get a .llseek operation so we can make
nonseekable_open the default for future file operations without a
.llseek pointer.

The three cases that we can automatically detect are no_llseek, seq_lseek
and default_llseek. For cases where we can we can automatically prove that
the file offset is always ignored, we use noop_llseek, which maintains
the current behavior of not returning an error from a seek.

New drivers should normally not use noop_llseek but instead use no_llseek
and call nonseekable_open at open time.  Existing drivers can be converted
to do the same when the maintainer knows for certain that no user code
relies on calling seek on the device file.

The generated code is often incorrectly indented and right now contains
comments that clarify for each added line why a specific variant was
chosen. In the version that gets submitted upstream, the comments will
be gone and I will manually fix the indentation, because there does not
seem to be a way to do that using coccinelle.

Some amount of new code is currently sitting in linux-next that should get
the same modifications, which I will do at the end of the merge window.

Many thanks to Julia Lawall for helping me learn to write a semantic
patch that does all this.

Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exception

The problem is that 'ubi_wl_scrub_peb()' does not expect that PEBs may
be in the erroneous tree, which is a bug. This patch fixes the bug
and adds corresponding check to 'ubi_wl_scrub_peb()'. Now it will simply
ignore erroneous PEBs, instead of causing an oops.
