Subject: [PATCH v6 5/5] mtd: spi-nor: keep lock bits if they are non-volatile
Date:   Thu, 26 Nov 2020 21:26:14 +0100

Traditionally, linux unlocks the whole flash because there are legacy
devices which has the write protections bits set by default at startup.
If you actually want to use the flash protection bits, eg. because there
is a read-only part for a bootloader, this automatic unlocking is
harmful. If there is no hardware write protection in place (usually
called WP#), a startup of the kernel just discards this protection.

I've gone through the datasheets of all the flashes (except the Intel
ones where I could not find any datasheet nor reference) which supports
the unlocking feature and looked how the sector protection was
implemented. The currently supported flashes can be divided into the
following two categories:
 (1) block protection bits are non-volatile. Thus they keep their values
     at reset and power-cycle
 (2) flashes where these bits are volatile. After reset or power-cycle,
     the whole memory array is protected.
     (a) some devices needs a special "Global Unprotect" command, eg.
         the Atmel AT25DF041A.
     (b) some devices require to clear the BPn bits in the status
         register.

Due to the reasons above, we do not want to clear the bits for flashes
which belong to category (1). Fortunately for us, only Atmel flashes
fall into category (2a). Implement the "Global Protect" and "Global
Unprotect" commands for these. For (2b) we can use normal block
protection locking scheme.

This patch adds a new flag to indicate the case (2). Only if we have
such a flash we unlock the whole flash array. To be backwards compatible
it also introduces a kernel configuration option which restores the
complete legacy behavior ("Disable write protection on any flashes").
Hopefully, this will clean up "unlock the entire flash for legacy
devices" once and for all.

For reference here are the actually commits which introduced the legacy
behaviour (and extended the behaviour to other chip manufacturers):

commit f80e521c916cb ("mtd: m25p80: add support for the Intel/Numonyx {16,32,64}0S33B SPI flash chips")
commit ea60658a08f8f ("mtd: m25p80: disable SST software protection bits by default")
commit 7228982442365 ("[MTD] m25p80: fix bug - ATmel spi flash fails to be copied to")

Actually, this might also fix handling of the Atmel AT25DF flashes,
because the original commit 7228982442365 ("[MTD] m25p80: fix bug -
ATmel spi flash fails to be copied to") was writing a 0 to the status
register, which is a "Global Unprotect". This might not be the case in
the current code which only handles the block protection bits BP2, BP1
and BP0. Thus, it depends on the current contents of the status register
if this unlock actually corresponds to a "Global Unprotect" command. In
the worst case, the current code might leave the AT25DF flashes in a
write protected state.

The commit 191f5c2ed4b6f ("mtd: spi-nor: use 16-bit WRR command when QE
is set on spansion flashes") changed that behaviour by just clearing BP2
to BP0 instead of writing a 0 to the status register.

Further, the commit 3e0930f109e76 ("mtd: spi-nor: Rework the disabling
of block write protection") expanded the unlock_all() feature to ANY
flash which supports locking.

changes since v5:
 - also set SRWD bit for the "Global Protect" command
 - use spi_nor_write_sr() instead of spi_nor_write_sr_and_check() to send
   the "Global Protect" or "Global Unprotect" command
 - mark ESMT F25L32QA as non-volatile as indicated in a newer datasheet
   revision
 - rebased to latest tree

changes since v4:
 - made atmel_global_protection_default_init() static, spotted by
   lkp@intel.com

changes since v3:
 - now defaulting to MTD_SPI_NOR_WP_DISABLE_ON_VOLATILE, suggested by Vignesh
 - restored the original spi_nor_unlock_all(), instead add individual
   locking ops for the "Global Protect" scheme in atmel.c. This was tested
   partly with the AT25SL321 (for the test I added the fixups to this
   flash).
 - renamed SPI_NOR_UNPROTECT to SPI_NOR_WP_IS_VOLATILE. Suggested by
   Vingesh, although I've renamed it to a more general "WP_IS_VOLATILE"
   because either the BP bits or the individual sector locks might be
   volatile.
 - add mention of both block protection bits and "Global Unprotect" command
   in the Kconfig help text.

changes since v2:
 - add Kconfig option to be able to retain legacy behaviour
 - rebased the patch due to the spi-nor rewrite
 - dropped the Fixes: tag, it doens't make sense after the spi-nor rewrite
 - mention commit 3e0930f109e76 which further modified the unlock
   behaviour.

changes since v1:
 - completely rewrote patch, the first version used a device tree flag
