You may get further e-mails resulting from automated or manual testing and review of the tree, please engage with people reporting problems and send followup patches addressing any issues that are reported if needed. If any updates are required or you are submitting further changes they should be sent as incremental updates against current git, existing patches will not be replaced. Please add any relevant lists and maintainers to the CCs when replying to this mail. Thanks, Mark

That's a very harsh way of saying things. I did not decide anything or ignore your comments. I answered your questions and acknowledged that indeed the read training was done under the dirmap handler but this was not a concern today since we had all the required information from spimem. We waited _together_, 5 or 6 weeks, for more inputs on how to address the concerns you raised regarding the sustainability of this method. > I won't spend any more time fighting it. This is not a fight. I don't know why you interpret it that way. Now, since you object so explicitly, and since this patchset has not reached the Linux kernel yet, we should consider dropping it. I rather do that than push crap in mainline. But then, please, provide solutions and not only objections ! > But I will say that you should not expect any > guarantees that SPI NOR or SPI NAND will not break your calibration in > the future if they decide to move the dirmap_create() call around. If that's the case one day, we have multiple solutions : - stop doing the training - move the training to the appropriate handler if it exists - use a default value >> [11/11] mtd: spi-nor: aspeed: set the decoding size to at least 2MB for AST2600 >> commit: 73ae97e3cabb580639f02f12a192324a53c4bebb >> > > [0] https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/spi-devel-general/patch/20220325100849.2019209-9-clg@kaod.org/ > [1] https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/spi-devel-general/patch/20220214094231.3753686-9-clg@kaod.org/ > [2] https://lore.kernel.org/all/20220208190636.h6dubktkmuosvdxo@ti.com/ Regards, Cédric.

You == Cedric here. Sorry, I thought that had been addressed as there hadn't been anything I'd noticed on the thread for a few versions. It does look like there was agreement that there was a problem too :/

I think the correct thing to do here would be to move this patch out of your main series. Since the old driver did not have this feature anyway, it is not necessary for the conversion to achieve feature parity. Then have a separate series to drive the conversation on how to best implement this contentious feature. > > We waited _together_, 5 or 6 weeks, for more inputs on how to address > the concerns you raised regarding the sustainability of this method. > > > I won't spend any more time fighting it. > > This is not a fight. I don't know why you interpret it that way. I interpret it this way because I feel you have ignored my comments and have kept this patch in regardless. But maybe I _am_ being too harsh. So apologies if I have interpreted things wrong. > > Now, since you object so explicitly, and since this patchset has > not reached the Linux kernel yet, we should consider dropping it. > I rather do that than push crap in mainline. But then, please, > provide solutions and not only objections ! Yes please. I would like to have this patch dropped, and then reopen this discussion in a separate thread. I have provided solutions before but maybe you missed them. Please see [3]. Specifically patches 1 and 3. These are still not very refined and might not be accepted in their current state (especially patch 3 since it does the calibration after registering the device with MTD), but they should be a good starting point for discussion. And we might end up deciding to just use the dirmap_create() hook to do the calibration, but it is important to have this conversation separately and clearly instead of it being missed as part of a large patch series. > > > But I will say that you should not expect any > > guarantees that SPI NOR or SPI NAND will not break your calibration in > > the future if they decide to move the dirmap_create() call around. > > If that's the case one day, we have multiple solutions : > > - stop doing the training > - move the training to the appropriate handler if it exists This is my preferred option, [3] is a good starting point for proposing that handler. > - use a default value > > > [11/11] mtd: spi-nor: aspeed: set the decoding size to at least 2MB for AST2600 > > > commit: 73ae97e3cabb580639f02f12a192324a53c4bebb > > > > > > > [0] https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/spi-devel-general/patch/20220325100849.2019209-9-clg@kaod.org/ > > [1] https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/spi-devel-general/patch/20220214094231.3753686-9-clg@kaod.org/ > > [2] https://lore.kernel.org/all/20220208190636.h6dubktkmuosvdxo@ti.com/ [3] https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/linux-mtd/list/?series=233504&state=%2A&archive=both

It does not look like > a complex solution to implement, but I might be overlooking something. I think we need some more feedback on this proposal [0]. If that's not acceptable, then let's discuss on dirmap_create() and see if it would be acceptable to do calibration under this hook. Which is what this patchset is proposing since the spimem interface offers all the required information to do so. However, Pratyush would prefer a stable interface, hence [0]. That said, if one day we merge a do_calibration() hook like proposed in [0], we can change the current Aspeed patchset to use it. That's why I didn't see the lack of specific calibration hook as a blocker. > This can also be done for the next kernel release. I was hoping this one. We would need a comment on the use of the dirmap_create() hook to clarify. Thanks ! Cédric [0] https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/linux-mtd/list/?series=233504&state=%2A&archive=both
