Winbond flashes with OTP support provide a command to erase the OTP
data. This might come in handy during development.
This was tested with a Winbond W25Q32JW on a LS1028A SoC with the
NXP FSPI controller.

Changes since v1:
- fixed kernel doc
There is also a patch for mtd-utils to add a small tool to issue
the erase:

I am not very familiar with the OTP feature. It is supposed to be "One
Time Programmable". So does erasing the OTP area make it programmable
again? Or it just erases the data and then the OTP region will forever
be 0xff?
Because if you can erase and reprogram it, how is it OTP at all?

I got the datasheet for this flash from
https://www.elinux.org/images/f/f5/Winbond-w25q32.pdf but it doesn't
seem to mention the erase OTP command (0x44).

Only 3 address bytes needed? Can the OTP region ever require 4 byte
addressing? For example, say the flash is switched to 4 byte addressing
for the main region. Would it still expect 3 byte addressing for OTP
ops?

Huh, sending address in the "data" parameter of write_reg() is strange.
Wouldn't you be better off using spi_nor_controller_ops_erase()? It is
an erase operation anyway so it should be the natural choice.
This was my first thought anyway. Then I looked at
spi_nor_erase_sector(). It looks like controller_ops->erase is optional,
and the fallback is this same technique.
I see a lot of similarities between this function and
spi_nor_erase_sector(). So you can just swap out nor->erase_opcode and
nor->addr_width and call that. I am not the biggest fan of this approach
but it is widely used in the core so it should be fine. In fact, OTP
read and write also use this approach.

spi_nor_mtd_otp_lock_or_erase()? Or would it make it too long?
Anyway, maybe I am bikeshedding too much, but I don't like that you
combine two completely independent operations into the same function
because they have some common parts. You should make them two separate
functions and see how many of the common parts can be split into
independent subroutines.

This further highlights my point. There are subtle differences between
erase and lock and having them in the same function might not be the
best idea.

Its programmable and erasable until a lock bit is set, then you can't
program or erase it anymore. So nowadays it isn't really OTP..

Well, it isn't. Thus there wasn't an erase operation in the first
place. But Tudor found it useful. Not sure if that applies to all
SPI flashes, though.

That seems to be an ancient flash, note it doesn't have any suffix.

Ok, will stick to the wording of the datasheet (which sounds quite odd,
because
its "security register"). This also applies to the read, write and lock.

It seems you're right. Looking at larger flashes there are sometimes
4 bytes. See for example ch 8.2.44
https://www.winbond.com/resource-files/w25m512jwxiq%20spi%20rev%20c%2012242018.pdf
Thus it seems it should be fixed for the programming and reading,
too. Unfortunately, I cannot test any of this.

Its the same as in spi_nor_erase_sector() if there is no
spi_nor_controller_ops_erase(). spi_nor_controller_ops_erase() is
just for erasing a sector (thus I'd assume it implies SPINOR_OP_SE).
Hm.. I should have read on.

Ok, agreed on both points. This should also solve the "4 byte mode"
problem, that is, just don't set addr_width.

I'm fine with both, its just that the read/write doesn't have an
"or" neither ;)

Given that the whole boilerplate before and after the erase/lock is
exactly the same, even the while loop is the same, I don't see how
it can easily be split. Well, you could rename the function to some
generic spi_nor_mtd_walk() - which would imply it might also be
used for read/write, which is not true - and provide a callback
function. But I don't see how this is would make it easier to read.
And this is just an implemention local to this module.

Ah, its "security register". I thought it was an unusual way to shorten

I don't think any such flash is supported currently, right? So in that
case we won't at least introduce any new regressions when making this
untested change. Whenever someone adds support for one of these flashes,
we can ask them to test this as well.

My suggestion was to make two copies of the same code, and then see if
you can consolidate some in a clean subroutine. If that is not possible,
then you can just leave the code duplicated in two places. It is not
that much duplication so it should be fine IMO.
But I won't press too much on this point. I will leave it to your
judgement on what works better. Just want to make sure you understand my
point completely.

yep.

I get your point. But I really don't like the code duplication.

Maybe the argument for the locking is wrong. Future will tell. The
start address of a region and the number of a region is actually
equivalent. So maybe ->lock should also take the start address.
But then you'd go from address -> region -> address -> region.
At the moment its modelled after how winbond and macronix flashes
implement these ops.
See here for an old version of the support for macronix(-like)
flashes:
