On Rockchip SoCs the first boot stages are written on NAND
with help of manufacturer software that uses a different format
then the MTD framework. Skip the automatic BBT scan with the
NAND_SKIP_BBTSCAN option so that the original content is unchanged
during the driver probe.
The NAND_NO_BBM_QUIRK option allows us to erase bad blocks with
the nand_erase_nand() function and the flash_erase command.
With these options the user has the "freedom of choice" by neutral
access mode to read and write in whatever format is needed.

Changes V3:
  Change prefixes

Changed V2:
  reword

I'm aware that the maintainer finds it "awful",
but it's absolute necessary to:
1: read/write boot blocks in user space without touching original content
2: format a NAND for MTD either with built in or external driver module

So we keep it include in this serie.

Can the boot_rom_mode thing help?

For writing this part you can disable the bad block protection using
debugfs and then write an externally processed file in raw mode I guess.

For the boot I think I proposed a DT property. I don't remember how far
the discussion went.

Not only about the boot blocks.
The rest of the Nand is formatted as well by closed source.
It formats the location at the new BBT pages as well.

This boot_rom_mode thing is for switching ECC mode in boot block pages and is not related to BBT pages.

The use of debugfs only might make sense when the driver can pass the probe function without errors.
It does however not save guard existing data when it creates and writes to a new BBT page location.
When the data at the new BBT pages previously is written with a different ECC or data/OOB format the hardware driver probe fails.

Your suggestion does not work for the Rockchip case.
Please advise what to do with this patch.

MTDx partitions are not created.
User space commands that rely strings like "/dev/mtd0" don't work.

Application

Why do we fail a hardware driver probe when the level above doesn't deal with all real world situations.
Shouldn't that be more separated in MTD levels.

Is there a web link of that discussion?

How do I link 'compatible' to '/dev/mtd0' for example.
In a '/proc/mtd' entry?
See /drivers/mtd/spi-nor/debugfs.c


In order to write boot blocks in a pattern it needs to know the chip ID as used in nand_flash_ids[].
How can we export this ID to userspace?
Also in a '/proc/mtd' entry?

===

		partitions {
			compatible = "fixed-partitions";
			#address-cells = <2>;
			#size-cells = <2>;

			partition@0 {
				reg = <0x0 0x0 0x0 0x02000000>;
				compatible = "rockchip,boot-blk";
				label = "boot-blk";
			};

			partition@2000000 {
				reg = <0x0 0x02000000 0x1 0xfa000000>;
				label = "rootfs";
			};

			partition@1fc000000 {
				reg = <0x1 0xfc000000 0x0 0x04000000>;
				compatible = "mtd,bbt"
				label = "bbt";
			};
		};

How many erase blocks is MTD using for BBT pages? 4 or 8 or ?

BBT pages are not clearly defined in the DT.
They are somehow marked bad in the overlapping partition.
How are suppose to erase BBT pages in a automated way?
Is there a need for a new BBT compatible?

What is your idea about compatibles suggestion:
rockchip,boot-blk
mtd,bbt

Maybe the term "DT property" did not appear but that's what I had in
mind :-) I don't know if it must be a chip or a partition property.

Richard, here is where I would like your feedback, I am kind of opposed
to a "skip_bbt" module parameter. It's not a strong opinion, if you
think it's fine I'm open.

I would rather prefer a DT property which says "do not use the
standard pattern".

Johan, how are bad blocks supposed to be tracked if the bad block
tables are written in a way which does not allow Linux to read it?

There was an attempt a few days back, it's not upstream, I can't find
it back ATM. I'll send it once I find it back.

This does not work, it would take me hours to explain why, it's all
about:
- stability
- how mtd has been implemented

As many blocks are needed to cover the size of the device, times 2.

No, because this is software, not hardware. MTD is a Linux thing, which
gives you access to an mtd device through a number of operations. It
handles bad blocks.

Not sure what "overlapping partition" means.

> Is there a need for a new BBT compatible?

No, Linux has run with this standard pattern for 20 years, downstream
kernels sometimes make silly design decisions, we do not want to
support them.

Yes, please no new module parameters. A module parameter should only affect
the behavior of the driver itself (e.g. debug mode) but not be device specific.
We made this mistake in the past too often. :-(
A single driver can serve more devices. Therefore IMHO controlling this via DT
makes perfectly sense.

Thanks,
