RFC PATCH 1/1 mmc: support background operation

Hi mailing.

This RFC patch is supported background operation(BKOPS).
And if you want to test this patch, must apply "[PATCH v3] mmc: support HPI send command"

This patch is based on Hanumath Prasad's patch "mmc: enable background operations for emmc4.41 with HPI support" Hanumath's patch is implemented before applied per forlin's patch "use nonblock mmc request...". This patch is based on 3.1.0-rc1 in mmc-next.

Background operations is run when set the URGENT_BKOPS in response.

if set the URGENT_BKOPS in response, we can notify that card need the BKOPS. (URGENT_BKOPS is used in eMMC4.41 spec, but in eMMC4.5 changed to EXCEPTION_EVENT bit.
maybe, we need to change this point).

And all request is done, then run background operation.
if request read/write operation when running BKOPS, issue HPI interrupt

This patch is just RFC patch (not to merge), because i want to use BKOPS in userspace. (using ioctl).

I want to get mailing's review for this patch.

Hi mailing.

This RFC patch is supported background operation(BKOPS).
And if you want to test this patch, must apply "[PATCH v3] mmc: support HPI send command"

This patch is based on Hanumath Prasad's patch "mmc: enable background operations for emmc4.41 with HPI support" Hanumath's patch is implemented before applied per forlin's patch "use nonblock mmc request...". This patch is based on 3.1.0-rc1 in mmc-next.

I'm a little confused by this statement. Was this patch done before Per Forlin's work, or is this patch the implementation of the infrastructure Per Forlin worked on to do non-blocking requests to the host controller?

Is it possible to follow the kernel documentation standard for comment function headers (I believe Randy Dunlap has given links to this in the past)? You can see in this patch that after this function the next function is using a function comment header per kernel guidelines.

I know that if new drivers are added to the kernel, maintainers will reject the work if it's using printk()'s. If this code is getting new functions, is it a good idea to start using the more modern, accepted coding functions like pr_info()?

I know some people prefer doing things like

A.'if (x)'
instead of
B.'if (x != NULL)

because A. is supposed to be some type of 'expert way' of doing things.
However, B. is a whole lot more readable and easier for people to decipher precisely what is going on, especially newer people that may not be as familiar with this part of the Linux kernel as others. Just looking at this patch, I can't tell if 'card->ext_csd.hpi' is supposed to be a number value or a pointer. And if you use Linus's tool 'sparse' to check your kernel code before submitting, there is a difference between statements like 'if (x == 0)' and 'if (x == NULL)', even though they could evaluate to the same result in this if() statement.

So I suggest adding the equality or inequality sign to this if() as well as any other if() to make the code a bit easier to understand.

Hi mailing.

This RFC patch is supported background operation(BKOPS). And if you want to test this patch, must apply "[PATCH v3] mmc:
support HPI send command"

This patch is based on Hanumath Prasad's patch "mmc: enable background operations for emmc4.41 with HPI support" Hanumath's patch is implemented before applied per forlin's patch "use nonblock mmc request...".
This patch is based on 3.1.0-rc1 in mmc-next.

Quoted 4 lines

I'm a little confused by this statement. Was this patch done before Per Forlin's work, or is this patch the implementation of the infrastructure Per Forlin worked on to do non-blocking requests to the host controller?

As I understand it, the background operations referred to by this patch are a feature of the spec/card, whereas the background operations in Per Forlin's nonblocking patch are merely a feature of the DMA preparation being done in the kernel (invisibly to the card).

- Chris.

This feature(BKOPS) is defined in eMMC4.41 spec.(differ with Per Forlins's non-blocking patch) Hanumath Prasad's patch is sent before Per Forlin's patch.
so need to rebase for applied patch.

Background operations is run when set the URGENT_BKOPS in response.

if set the URGENT_BKOPS in response, we can notify that card need the BKOPS.
(URGENT_BKOPS is used in eMMC4.41 spec, but in eMMC4.5 changed to EXCEPTION_EVENT bit.
maybe, we need to change this point).

And all request is done, then run background operation.
if request read/write operation when running BKOPS, issue HPI interrupt

This patch is just RFC patch (not to merge), because i want to use BKOPS in userspace.
(using ioctl).

I want to get mailing's review for this patch.

Is it possible to follow the kernel documentation standard for comment function headers (I believe Randy Dunlap has given links to this in the past)? You can see in this patch that after this function the next function is using a function comment header per kernel guidelines.

You're right.
But this patch is the RFC patch (i mentioned this patch is not to merge). So i didn't add the comment for this function.

I know some people prefer doing things like

A.'if (x)'
instead of
B.'if (x != NULL)

because A. is supposed to be some type of 'expert way' of doing things. However, B. is a whole lot more readable and easier for people to decipher precisely what is going on, especially newer people that may not be as familiar with this part of the Linux kernel as others. Just looking at this patch, I can't tell if 'card->ext_csd.hpi' is supposed to be a number value or a pointer. And if you use Linus's tool 'sparse' to check your kernel code before submitting, there is a difference between statements like 'if (x == 0)' and 'if (x == NULL)', even though they could evaluate to the same result in this if() statement.

Quoted 2 lines

So I suggest adding the equality or inequality sign to this if() as well as any other if() to make the code a bit easier to understand.

Right..i will modify this point..

Thanks for your comments..
Any other opinion about this feature (BKOPS)..??

Regards,
Jaehoon Chung

That is kind of an ugly if() statement; a bit further down I explain my reasons for making if() statements like this more readable.

I didn't understand this comment...how do you change this statement?

I know some people prefer doing things like

A.'if (x)'
instead of
B.'if (x != NULL)

because A. is supposed to be some type of 'expert way' of doing things. However, B. is a whole lot more readable and easier for people to decipher precisely what is going on, especially newer people that may not be as familiar with this part of the Linux kernel as others. Just looking at this patch, I can't tell if 'card->ext_csd.hpi' is supposed to be a number value or a pointer. And if you use Linus's tool 'sparse' to check your kernel code before submitting, there is a difference between statements like 'if (x == 0)' and 'if (x == NULL)', even though they could evaluate to the same result in this if() statement.

So I suggest adding the equality or inequality sign to this if() as well as any other if() to make the code a bit easier to understand.

Right..i will modify this point..

Thanks for your comments..
Any other opinion about this feature (BKOPS)..??

Unfortunately, I am still a little new to this area of the Linux kernel so I don't quite have the background to give an intelligent answer w/respect to eMMC 4.41 and BKOPS. I just have 3 device driver accepts in the TTY space, so my contributions to patches are mainly basic code functionality and Linux kernel/device-driver gotchas.

Do you know the tool 'sparse'? It's a good thing to try once, before submitting upstream, if you haven't done it.

Hi Jay..

I didn't know the tool 'sparse'. i will check the tool for your advice. Thank you a lot for your help.. :)

here, I'll provide it from a write-up I did within my department. Unfortunately, finding documentation how to use it is pretty hard because very little is provided.

-------------------------------------------------
Step 9 in SubmitChecklist documentation in preparing to submit a device driver upstream to Linus's kernel is:

9: Check cleanly with sparse.

Sparse is a tool written by Linus that contains built-in checks for known problematic and a set of annotations in the Linux kernel designed to convey semantic information about types, such as what address space pointers point to, or what locks a function acquires or releases. It does appear to be a useful tool to make your code that much more tight.

The #1 problem with this tool is there is little documentation how to use it. I think I figured it out how to use it, basic-wise, with the help of searching on-line forums.

To set up and use for the first time:
1. git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/devel/sparse/sparse.git
2. cd to the sparse directory
3. make; sudo make install
4. cd to your linux kernel
5. 'make C=1 >& sparse.log' if you have not built your kernel, OR
'make C=2 >& sparse.log' if you have already built your kernel

I HIGHLY recommend the file redirection operator because a LOT OF STUFF GETS SPIT OUT.

6. To use other macros, do something like:

make C=1 CF=
example:
make C=2 CF="-D__CHECK_ENDIAN__" (to check endianess)

Hi Jaehoon Chung,

Hi mailing.

This RFC patch is supported background operation(BKOPS).
And if you want to test this patch, must apply "[PATCH v3] mmc: support HPI send command"

This patch is based on Hanumath Prasad's patch "mmc: enable background operations for emmc4.41 with HPI support"
Hanumath's patch is implemented before applied per forlin's patch "use nonblock mmc request...".
This patch is based on 3.1.0-rc1 in mmc-next.

Background operations is run when set the URGENT_BKOPS in response.

if set the URGENT_BKOPS in response, we can notify that card need the BKOPS.
(URGENT_BKOPS is used in eMMC4.41 spec, but in eMMC4.5 changed to EXCEPTION_EVENT bit.
maybe, we need to change this point).

And all request is done, then run background operation.
if request read/write operation when running BKOPS, issue HPI interrupt

This patch is just RFC patch (not to merge), because i want to use BKOPS in userspace.
(using ioctl).

I want to get mailing's review for this patch.

Hi

In eMMC spec, if set BKOPS_SUPPORT bit in ext_csd,
BKOPS_EN, BKOPS_STATUS, BKOPS_START and URGENT_BKOPS are supported for default.

So need not to send switch-command for BKOPS_EN when set BKOPS_SUPPORT bit.

Thanks,
