The MTD subsystem has historically tried to be as configurable as possible. The
side-effect of this is that its configuration menu is rather large, and we are
gradually shrinking it. For example, we recently merged partitions support with
the mtdcore.
This patch does the next step - it merges the mtdchar module to mtdcore. And in
this case this is not only about eliminating too fine-grained separation and
simplifying the configuration menu. This is also about eliminating seemingly
useless kernel module.
Indeed, mtdchar is a module that allows user-space making use of MTD devices
via /dev/mtd* character devices. If users do not enable it, they simply cannot
use MTD devices at all. They cannot read or write the flash contents. Is it a
sane and useful setup? I believe not. And everyone just enables mtdchar.
Having mtdchar separate is also a little bit harmful. People sometimes miss the
fact that they need to enable an additional configuration option to have
user-space MTD interfaces, and then they wonder why on earth the kernel does
not allow using the flash? They spend time asking around.
Thus, let's just get rid of this module and make it part of mtd core.
Note, mtdchar had additional configuration option to enable OTP interfaces,
which are present on some flashes. I removed that option as well - it saves a
really tiny amount space.
[dwmw2: Strictly speaking, you can mount file systems on MTD devices just
fine without the mtdchar (or mtdblock) devices; you just can't do
other manipulations directly on the underlying device. But still I
agree that it makes sense to make this unconditional. And Yay! we
get to kill off an instance of checking CONFIG_foo_MODULE, which is
an abomination that should never happen.]

This enables support for reading, writing and locking so called
|
|
"Protection Registers" present on some flash chips.
|
|
A subset of them are pre-programmed at the factory with a
|
|
unique set of values. The rest is user-programmable.
|
|
|
|
The user-programmable Protection Registers contain one-time
|
|
programmable (OTP) bits; when programmed, register bits cannot be
|
|
erased. Each Protection Register can be accessed multiple times to
|
|
program individual bits, as long as the register remains unlocked.
|
|
|
|
Each Protection Register has an associated Lock Register bit. When a
|
|
Lock Register bit is programmed, the associated Protection Register
|
|
can only be read; it can no longer be programmed. Additionally,
|
|
because the Lock Register bits themselves are OTP, when programmed,
|
|
Lock Register bits cannot be erased. Therefore, when a Protection
|
|
Register is locked, it cannot be unlocked.
|
|
|
|
This feature should therefore be used with extreme care. Any mistake
|
|
in the programming of OTP bits will waste them.
