Thomas Gleixner dcb0932884 [JFFS2] Simplify writebuffer handling
The writev based write buffer implementation was far to complex as
in most use cases the write buffer had to be handled anyway.
Simplify the write buffer handling and use mtd->write instead.

From extensive testing no performance impact has been noted.

David Woodhouse 9fe4854cd1 [JFFS2] Remove flash offset argument from various functions.
We don't need the upper layers to deal with the physical offset. It's
_always_ c->nextblock->offset + c->sector_size - c->nextblock->free_size
so we might as well just let the actual write functions deal with that.

Joern Engel c8b229de2b [MTD] Merge STMicro NOR_ECC code with Intel Sibley code
In 2002, STMicro started producing NOR flashes with internal ECC protection
for small blocks (8 or 16 bytes).  Support for those flashes was added by me.
In 2005, Intel Sibley flashes copied this strategy and Nico added support for
those.  Merge the code for both.

Joern Engel 28318776a8 [MTD] Introduce writesize
At least two flashes exists that have the concept of a minimum write unit,
similar to NAND pages, but no other NAND characteristics.  Therefore, rename
the minimum write unit to "writesize" for all flashes, including NAND.

David Woodhouse fcb7578719 [JFFS2] Extend jffs2_link_node_ref() to link into per-inode list too.
Let's avoid the potential for forgetting to set ref->next_in_ino, by doing
it within jffs2_link_node_ref() instead.

This highlights the ugliness of what we're currently doing with
xattr_datum and xattr_ref structures -- we should find a nicer way of
dealing with that.

Ferenc Havasi e631ddba58 [JFFS2] Add erase block summary support (mount time improvement)
The goal of summary is to speed up the mount time. Erase block summary (EBS)
stores summary information at the end of every (closed) erase block. It is
no longer necessary to scan all nodes separetly (and read all pages of them)
just read this "small" summary, where every information is stored which is
needed at mount time.

This summary information is stored in a JFFS2_FEATURE_RWCOMPAT_DELETE. During
the mount process if there is no summary info the orignal scan process will
be executed. EBS works with NAND and NOR flashes, too.

There is a user space tool called sumtool to generate this summary
information for a JFFS2 image.

Tim Schmielau 4e57b68178 [PATCH] fix missing includes
I recently picked up my older work to remove unnecessary #includes of
sched.h, starting from a patch by Dave Jones to not include sched.h
from module.h. This reduces the number of indirect includes of sched.h
by ~300. Another ~400 pointless direct includes can be removed after
this disentangling (patch to follow later).
However, quite a few indirect includes need to be fixed up for this.

In order to feed the patches through -mm with as little disturbance as
possible, I've split out the fixes I accumulated up to now (complete for
i386 and x86_64, more archs to follow later) and post them before the real
patch.  This way this large part of the patch is kept simple with only
adding #includes, and all hunks are independent of each other.  So if any
hunk rejects or gets in the way of other patches, just drop it.  My scripts
will pick it up again in the next round.

Andrew Victor 2f82ce1eb6 [JFFS2] Use a single config option for write buffer support
This patch replaces the current CONFIG_JFFS2_FS_NAND, CONFIG_JFFS2_FS_NOR_ECC
and CONFIG_JFFS2_FS_DATAFLASH with a single configuration option -
CONFIG_JFFS2_FS_WRITEBUFFER.

The only functional change of this patch is that the slower div/mod
calculations for SECTOR_ADDR(), PAGE_DIV() and PAGE_MOD() are now always
used when CONFIG_JFFS2_FS_WRITEBUFFER is enabled.

Andrew Victor 8f15fd55f9 [JFFS2] Add support for JFFS2-on-Dataflash devices.
For Dataflash, can_mark_obsolete = false and the NAND write buffering
code (wbuf.c) is used.

Since the DataFlash chip will automatically erase pages when writing,
the cleanmarkers are not needed - so cleanmarker_oob = false and
cleanmarker_size = 0

DataFlash page-sizes are not a power of two (they're multiples of 528
bytes).  The SECTOR_ADDR macro (added in the previous core patch) is
replaced with a (slower) div/mod version if CONFIG_JFFS2_FS_DATAFLASH is
selected.

Andrew Victor 3be36675d4 [JFFS2] Core changes required to support JFFS2-on-Dataflash devices.
DataFlash page-sizes are not a power of two (they're multiples of 528
bytes).  There are a few places in JFFS2 code where sector_size is used
as a bitmask.  A new macro (SECTOR_ADDR) was defined to calculate these
sector addresses. For non-DataFlash devices, the original (faster)
bitmask operation is still used.

In scan.c, the EMPTY_SCAN_SIZE was a constant of 1024.
Since this could be larger than the sector size of the DataFlash, this
is now basically set to MIN(sector_size, 1024).

Addition of a jffs2_is_writebuffered() macro.

Linus Torvalds 1da177e4c3 Linux-2.6.12-rc2
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
