mtd: ubi: make ubi_class constant

2024-07-12T17:45:09Z

Since commit 43a7206b0963 ("driver core: class: make class_register() take a const *"), the driver core allows for struct class to be in read-only memory, so move the ubi_class structure to be declared at build time placing it into read-only memory, instead of having to be dynamically allocated at boot time.

mtd: ubi: introduce pre-removal notification for UBI volumes

2024-02-25T21:41:33Z

Introduce a new notification type UBI_VOLUME_SHUTDOWN to inform users that a volume is just about to be removed. This is needed because users (such as the NVMEM subsystem) expect that at the time their removal function is called, the parenting device is still available (for removal of sysfs nodes, for example, in case of NVMEM which otherwise WARNs on volume removal).

mtd: ubi: attach from device tree

2024-02-25T21:41:33Z

Introduce device tree compatible 'linux,ubi' and attach compatible MTD devices using the MTD add notifier. This is needed for a UBI device to be available early at boot (and not only after late_initcall), so volumes on them can be used eg. as NVMEM providers for other drivers.

ubi: fastmap: Add module parameter to control reserving filling pool PEBs

ubi: fastmap: Fix lapsed wear leveling for first 64 PEBs

2023-10-28T21:14:55Z

The anchor PEB must be picked from first 64 PEBs, these PEBs could have large erase counter greater than other PEBs especially when free space is nearly running out. The ubi_update_fastmap will be called as long as pool/wl_pool is empty, old anchor PEB is erased when updating fastmap. Given an UBI device with N PEBs, free PEBs is nearly running out and pool will be filled with 1 PEB every time ubi_update_fastmap invoked. So t=N/POOL_SIZE[1]/64 means that in worst case the erase counter of first 64 PEBs is t times greater than other PEBs in theory. After running fsstress for 24h, the erase counter statistics for two UBI devices shown as follow(CONFIG_MTD_UBI_WL_THRESHOLD=128): Device A(1024 PEBs, pool=50, wl_pool=25): ========================================================= from to count min avg max --------------------------------------------------------- 0 .. 9: 0 0 0 0 10 .. 99: 0 0 0 0 100 .. 999: 0 0 0 0 1000 .. 9999: 0 0 0 0 10000 .. 99999: 960 29224 29282 29362 100000 .. inf: 64 117897 117934 117940 --------------------------------------------------------- Total : 1024 29224 34822 117940 Device B(8192 PEBs, pool=256, wl_pool=128): ========================================================= from to count min avg max --------------------------------------------------------- 0 .. 9: 0 0 0 0 10 .. 99: 0 0 0 0 100 .. 999: 0 0 0 0 1000 .. 9999: 8128 2253 2321 2387 10000 .. 99999: 64 35387 35387 35388 100000 .. inf: 0 0 0 0 --------------------------------------------------------- Total : 8192 2253 2579 35388 The key point is reducing fastmap updating frequency by enlarging POOL_SIZE, so let UBI reserve ubi->fm_pool.max_size PEBs during attaching. Then POOL_SIZE will become ubi->fm_pool.max_size/2 even in free space running out case. Given an UBI device with 8192 PEBs(16384\8192\4096 is common large-capacity flash), t=8192/128/64=1. The fastmap updating will happen in either wl_pool or pool is empty, so setting fm_pool_rsv_cnt as ubi->fm_pool.max_size can fill wl_pool in full state. After pool reservation, running fsstress for 24h: Device A(1024 PEBs, pool=50, wl_pool=25): ========================================================= from to count min avg max --------------------------------------------------------- 0 .. 9: 0 0 0 0 10 .. 99: 0 0 0 0 100 .. 999: 0 0 0 0 1000 .. 9999: 0 0 0 0 10000 .. 99999: 1024 33801 33997 34056 100000 .. inf: 0 0 0 0 --------------------------------------------------------- Total : 1024 33801 33997 34056 Device B(8192 PEBs, pool=256, wl_pool=128): ========================================================= from to count min avg max --------------------------------------------------------- 0 .. 9: 0 0 0 0 10 .. 99: 0 0 0 0 100 .. 999: 0 0 0 0 1000 .. 9999: 8192 2205 2397 2460 10000 .. 99999: 0 0 0 0 100000 .. inf: 0 0 0 0 --------------------------------------------------------- Total : 8192 2205 2397 2460 The difference of erase counter between first 64 PEBs and others is under WL_FREE_MAX_DIFF(2*UBI_WL_THRESHOLD=2*128=256). Device A: 34056 - 33801 = 255 Device B: 2460 - 2205 = 255 Next patch will add a switch to control whether UBI needs to reserve PEBs for filling pool.

Pull driver core updates from Greg KH: "Here is the large set of driver core changes for 6.4-rc1. Once again, a busy development cycle, with lots of changes happening in the driver core in the quest to be able to move "struct bus" and "struct class" into read-only memory, a task now complete with these changes. This will make the future rust interactions with the driver core more "provably correct" as well as providing more obvious lifetime rules for all busses and classes in the kernel. The changes required for this did touch many individual classes and busses as many callbacks were changed to take const * parameters instead. All of these changes have been submitted to the various subsystem maintainers, giving them plenty of time to review, and most of them actually did so. Other than those changes, included in here are a small set of other things: - kobject logging improvements - cacheinfo improvements and updates - obligatory fw_devlink updates and fixes - documentation updates - device property cleanups and const * changes - firwmare loader dependency fixes.
