v8 cover Add support for unprotected spare data page

Some background about this.
On original qsdk ipq8064 based firmware there was a big separation from boot partition and user partition. With boot partition we refer to partition used to init the router (bootloader, spm firmware and other internal stuff) With user partition we refer to linux partition and data partition not used to init the router.
When someone had to write to these boot partition a special mode was needed, to switch the nand driver to this special configuration.

Upstream version of the nandc driver totally dropped this and the result is that if someone try to read data from these partition a CRC warning is printed and if someone try to write that (if for example someone wants to replace the bootloader) result is a broken system as the data is badly written.

This series comes to fix this.

A user can declare offset and size of these special partition using the qcom,boot-pages binding.

An initial implementation of this assumed that the boot-pages started from the start of the nand but we discover that some device have backup of these special partition and we can have situation where we have this partition scheme
- APPSBL (require special mode)
- APPSBLENV (doesn't require special mode)
- ART
- APPSBLBK (back of APPSBL require special mode)
- APPSBLENVBK (back of APPSBLENV doesn't require special mode) With this configuration we need to declare sparse boot page and we can't assume boot-pages always starts from the start of the nand.

A user can use this form to declare sparse boot pages qcom,boot-partitions = <0x0 0x0c80000 0x0c80000 0x0500000>;

The driver internally will parse this array, convert it to nand pages and check internally on every read/write if this special configuration should used for that page or the normal one.

The reason for all of this is that qcom FOR SOME REASON, disable ECC for spare data only for these boot partition and we need to reflect this special configuration to mute these warning and to permit actually writing to these pages.

v8:
- Removed all review tag (sob changed)
- Change sob from Ansuel Smith to Christian Marangi
- Address small fixup suggested by Manivannan
v7:
- Add missing nand_cleanup
- Fix wrong error return
- Actually implement suggested boot_partition check
- Remove unnecessary comments previously added
- Add missing new line in dev_err
- Reorder structs with suggested order
v6:
- Add additional comments on boot partition check
- First reorder struct then make change
- Add additional changes request from Manivannan
- Add review tag for dt commit
v5:
- Rename boot-pages to boot-partitions
- Add additional check to parsing function
- Rename unprotect_spare_data to codeword_fixup
- Add additional info from Manivannan
- Add patch to remove holes in qcom_nand_host struct
v4:
- Fix wrong compatible set for boot-pages (ipq8074 instead of ipq806x) v3:
- Fix typo in Docmunetation commit desription
- Add items description for uint32-matrix
v2:
- Add fixes from Krzysztof in Documentation

PATCH v8 2/3 mtd: nand: raw: qcom_nandc: add support for unprotected spare data pages

In reply to Christian Marangi

IPQ8064 nand have special pages where a different layout scheme is used. These special page are used by boot partition and on reading them lots of warning are reported about wrong ECC data and if written to results in broken data and not bootable device.

The layout scheme used by these special page consist in using 512 bytes as the codeword size (even for the last codeword) while writing to CFG0 register. This forces the NAND controller to unprotect the 4 bytes of spare data.

Since the kernel is unaware of this different layout for these special page, it does try to protect the spare data too during read/write and warn about CRC errors.

Add support for this by permitting the user to declare these special pages in dts by declaring offset and size of the partition. The driver internally will convert these value to nand pages.

On user read/write the page is checked and if it's a boot page the correct layout is used.

Re: [PATCH v8 2/3] mtd: nand: raw: qcom_nandc: add support for unprotected spare data pages

Quoted 14 lines · Christian Marangi

IPQ8064 nand have special pages where a different layout scheme is used. These special page are used by boot partition and on reading them lots of warning are reported about wrong ECC data and if written to results in broken data and not bootable device.

The layout scheme used by these special page consist in using 512 bytes as the codeword size (even for the last codeword) while writing to CFG0 register. This forces the NAND controller to unprotect the 4 bytes of spare data.

Since the kernel is unaware of this different layout for these special page, it does try to protect the spare data too during read/write and warn about CRC errors.

Quoted 8 lines

Add support for this by permitting the user to declare these special pages in dts by declaring offset and size of the partition. The driver internally will convert these value to nand pages.

On user read/write the page is checked and if it's a boot page the correct layout is used.

Thanks,
Mani

Re: [PATCH v8 2/3] mtd: nand: raw: qcom_nandc: add support for unprotected spare data pages

In reply to Christian Marangi
Quoted 18 lines · Christian Marangi

IPQ8064 nand have special pages where a different layout scheme is used. These special page are used by boot partition and on reading them lots of warning are reported about wrong ECC data and if written to results in broken data and not bootable device.

The layout scheme used by these special page consist in using 512 bytes as the codeword size (even for the last codeword) while writing to CFG0 register. This forces the NAND controller to unprotect the 4 bytes of spare data.

Since the kernel is unaware of this different layout for these special page, it does try to protect the spare data too during read/write and warn about CRC errors.

Add support for this by permitting the user to declare these special pages in dts by declaring offset and size of the partition. The driver internally will convert these value to nand pages.

Quoted 5 lines

On user read/write the page is checked and if it's a boot page the correct layout is used.

Applied to https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mtd/linux.git nand/next, thanks.
