commit ea56fb282368ea08c2a313af6b55cb597aec4db1 upstream.

With commit 3cf32d180227 ("mtd: nand: vf610: switch to
mtd_ooblayout_ops") the driver started to use the NAND cores
default large page ooblayout. However, shortly after commit
6a623e076944 ("mtd: nand: add ooblayout for old hamming layout")
changed the default layout to the old hamming layout, which is
not what vf610_nfc is using. Specify the default large page
layout explicitly.

commit 7f29ae9f977bcdc3654e68bc36d170223c52fd48 upstream.

This fixes a race with idr_alloc where gd-&gt;first_minor can be set to the
same value for two simultaneous calls to ubiblock_create.  Each instance
calls device_add_disk with the same first_minor.  device_add_disk calls
bdi_register_owner which generates several warnings.

However, device_add_disk does not error out when bdi_register_owner

It then BUGs.

commit f78e5623f45bab2b726eec29dc5cefbbab2d0b1c upstream.

The fastmap update code might erase the current fastmap anchor PEB
in case it doesn't find any new free PEB. When a power cut happens
in this situation we must not have any outdated fastmap anchor PEB
on the device, because that would be used to attach during next
boot.
The easiest way to make that sure is to erase all outdated fastmap
anchor PEBs synchronously during attach.

commit f4c6cd1a7f2275d5bc0e494b21fff26f8dde80f0 upstream.

When the requested ECC strength does not exactly match the strengths
supported by the ECC engine, the driver is selecting the closest
strength meeting the 'selected_strength &gt; requested_strength'
constraint. Fix the fact that, in this particular case, ecc-&gt;strength
value was not updated to match the 'selected_strength'.

For instance, one can encounter this issue when no ECC requirement is
filled in the device tree while the NAND chip minimum requirement is not
a strength/step_size combo natively supported by the ECC engine.

commit 87e89ce8d0d14f573c068c61bec2117751fb5103 upstream.

Starting from commit 041e4575f034 ("mtd: nand: handle ECC errors in
OOB"), nand_do_read_oob() (from the NAND core) did return 0 or a
negative error, and the MTD layer expected it.

However, the trend for the NAND layer is now to return an error or a
positive number of bitflips. Deciding which status to return to the user
belongs to the MTD layer.

Commit e47f68587b82 ("mtd: check for max_bitflips in mtd_read_oob()")
brought this logic to the mtd_read_oob() function while the return value
coming from nand_do_read_oob() (called by the -&gt;_read_oob() hook) was
left unchanged.

commit fee4380f368e84ed216b62ccd2fbc4126f2bf40b upstream.

In the current driver, OOB bytes are accessed in raw mode, and when a
page access is done with NDCR_SPARE_EN set and NDCR_ECC_EN cleared, the
driver must read the whole spare area (64 bytes in case of a 2k page,
16 bytes for a 512 page). The driver was only reading the free OOB
bytes, which was leaving some unread data in the FIFO and was somehow
leading to a timeout.

We could patch the driver to read -&gt;spare_size + -&gt;ecc_size instead of
just -&gt;spare_size when READOOB is requested, but we'd better make
in-band and OOB accesses consistent.
Since the driver is always accessing in-band data in non-raw mode (with
the ECC engine enabled), we should also access OOB data in this mode.
That's particularly useful when using the BCH engine because in this
mode the free OOB bytes are also ECC protected.

<title>mtd: nand: mtk: fix infinite ECC decode IRQ issue</title>

commit 1d2fcdcf33339c7c8016243de0f7f31cf6845e8d upstream.

For MT2701 NAND Controller, there may generate infinite ECC decode IRQ
during long time burn test on some platforms. Once this issue occurred,
the ECC decode IRQ status cannot be cleared in the IRQ handler function,
and threads cannot be scheduled.

ECC HW generates decode IRQ each sector, so there will have more than one
decode IRQ if read one page of large page NAND.

Currently, ECC IRQ handle flow is that we will check whether it is decode
IRQ at first by reading the register ECC_DECIRQ_STA. This is a read-clear
type register. If this IRQ is decode IRQ, then the ECC IRQ signal will be
cleared at the same time.
Secondly, we will check whether all sectors are decoded by reading the
register ECC_DECDONE. This is because the current IRQ may be not dealed
in time, and the next sectors have been decoded before reading the
register ECC_DECIRQ_STA. Then, the next sectors's decode IRQs will not
be generated.
Thirdly, if all sectors are decoded by comparing with ecc-&gt;sectors, then we
will complete ecc-&gt;done, set ecc-&gt;sectors as 0, and disable ECC IRQ by
programming the register ECC_IRQ_REG(op) as 0. Otherwise, wait for the
next ECC IRQ.

But, there is a timing issue between step one and two. When we read the
reigster ECC_DECIRQ_STA, all sectors are decoded except the last sector,
and the ECC IRQ signal is cleared. But the last sector is decoded before
reading ECC_DECDONE, so the ECC IRQ signal is enabled again by ECC HW, and
it means we will receive one extra ECC IRQ later. In step three, we will
find that all sectors were decoded, then disable ECC IRQ and return.
When deal with the extra ECC IRQ, the ECC IRQ status cannot be cleared
anymore. That is because the register ECC_DECIRQ_STA can only be cleared
when the register ECC_IRQ_REG(op) is enabled. But actually we have
disabled ECC IRQ in the previous ECC IRQ handle. So, there will
keep receiving ECC decode IRQ.

Now, we read the register ECC_DECIRQ_STA once again before completing the
ecc done event. This ensures that there will be no extra ECC decode IRQ.

Also, remove writel(0, ecc-&gt;regs + ECC_IRQ_REG(op)) from irq handler,
because ECC IRQ is disabled in mtk_ecc_disable(). And clear ECC_DECIRQ_STA
in mtk_ecc_disable() in case there is a timeout to wait decode IRQ.

<title>mtd: nand: Fix writing mtdoops to nand flash.</title>

commit 30863e38ebeb500a31cecee8096fb5002677dd9b upstream.

When mtdoops calls mtd_panic_write(), it eventually calls
panic_nand_write() in nand_base.c. In order to properly wait for the
nand chip to be ready in panic_nand_wait(), the chip must first be
selected.

When using the atmel nand flash controller, a panic would occur due to
a NULL pointer exception.
