lock to the mmc_queue structure, given that the original lock isn't
reachable outside of block.c. Add a lock pointer to struct mmc_queue
instead and stop overriding the block layer lock which protects fields
entirely separate from the mmc use.

mmc: block: Fix unsupported parallel dispatch of requests

The mmc block driver does not support parallel dispatch of requests. In
normal circumstances, all requests are anyway funneled through a single
work item, so parallel dispatch never happens. However it can happen if
there is no elevator.

Fix that by detecting if a dispatch is in progress and returning busy
(BLK_STS_RESOURCE) in that case

mmc: block: Add CQE support

Add CQE support to the block driver, including:
- optionally using DCMD for flush requests
- "manually" issuing discard requests
- issuing read / write requests to the CQE
- supporting block-layer timeouts
- handling recovery
- supporting re-tuning

CQE offers 25% - 50% better random multi-threaded I/O. There is a slight
(e.g. 2%) drop in sequential read speed but no observable change to sequential
write.

CQE automatically sends the commands to complete requests. However it only
supports reads / writes and so-called "direct commands" (DCMD). Furthermore
DCMD is limited to one command at a time, but discards require 3 commands.
That makes issuing discards through CQE very awkward, but some CQE's don't
support DCMD anyway. So for discards, the existing non-CQE approach is
taken, where the mmc core code issues the 3 commands one at a time i.e.
mmc_erase(). Where DCMD is used, is for issuing flushes.

mmc: block: Add blk-mq support

Define and use a blk-mq queue. Discards and flushes are processed
synchronously, but reads and writes asynchronously. In order to support
slow DMA unmapping, DMA unmapping is not done until after the next request
is started. That means the request is not completed until then. If there is
no next request then the completion is done by queued work.

License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license

Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.

By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.

Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.

This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.

How this work was done:

Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
- file had no licensing information it it.
- file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
- file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,

Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.

The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.

The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
- Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
- Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
lines of source
- File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
lines).

All documentation files were explicitly excluded.

The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.

- when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
COPYING file license applied.

For non */uapi/* files that summary was:

SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 11139

and resulted in the first patch in this series.

If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was:

SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930

and resulted in the second patch in this series.

- if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
it (per prior point). Results summary:

SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270
GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17
LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15
GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14
((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5
LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4
LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1

and that resulted in the third patch in this series.

- when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
the concluded license(s).

- when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.

- In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).

- When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

- If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
in time.

In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.

Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.

In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.

Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
- a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
license ids and scores
- reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
- reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
SPDX license was correct

This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.

These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

mmc: block: Delete mmc_access_rpmb()

This function is used by the block layer queue to bail out of
requests if the current request is towards an RPMB
"block device".

This was done to avoid boot time scanning of this "block
device" which was never really a block device, thus duct-taping
over the fact that it was badly engineered.

This problem is now gone as we removed the offending RPMB block
device in another patch and replaced it with a character
device.

# 97548575 20-Sep-2017 Linus Walleij <linus.walleij@linaro.org>

mmc: block: Convert RPMB to a character device

The RPMB partition on the eMMC devices is a special area used
for storing cryptographically safe information signed by a
special secret key. To write and read records from this special
area, authentication is needed.

The RPMB area is *only* and *exclusively* accessed using
ioctl():s from userspace. It is not really a block device,
as blocks cannot be read or written from the device, also
the signed chunks that can be stored on the RPMB are actually
256 bytes, not 512 making a block device a real bad fit.

Currently the RPMB partition spawns a separate block device
named /dev/mmcblkNrpmb for each device with an RPMB partition,
including the creation of a block queue with its own kernel
thread and all overhead associated with this. On the Ux500
HREFv60 platform, for example, the two eMMCs means that two
block queues with separate threads are created for no use
whatsoever.

I have concluded that this block device design for RPMB is
actually pretty wrong. The RPMB area should have been designed
to be accessed from /dev/mmcblkN directly, using ioctl()s on
the main block device. It is however way too late to change
that, since userspace expects to open an RPMB device in
/dev/mmcblkNrpmb and we cannot break userspace.

This patch tries to amend the situation using the following
strategy:

- Stop creating a block device for the RPMB partition/area

- Instead create a custom, dynamic character device with
the same name.

- Make this new character device support exactly the same
set of ioctl()s as the old block device.

- Wrap the requests back to the same ioctl() handlers, but
issue them on the block queue of the main partition/area,
i.e. /dev/mmcblkN

We need to create a special "rpmb" bus type in order to get
udev and/or busybox hot/coldplug to instantiate the device
node properly.

Before the patch, this appears in 'ps aux':

101 root 0:00 [mmcqd/2rpmb]
123 root 0:00 [mmcqd/3rpmb]

After applying the patch these surplus block queue threads
are gone, but RPMB is as usable as ever using the userspace
MMC tools, such as 'mmc rpmb read-counter'.

We get instead those dynamice devices in /dev:

brw-rw---- 1 root root 179, 0 Jan 1 2000 mmcblk0
brw-rw---- 1 root root 179, 1 Jan 1 2000 mmcblk0p1
brw-rw---- 1 root root 179, 2 Jan 1 2000 mmcblk0p2
brw-rw---- 1 root root 179, 5 Jan 1 2000 mmcblk0p5
brw-rw---- 1 root root 179, 8 Jan 1 2000 mmcblk2
brw-rw---- 1 root root 179, 16 Jan 1 2000 mmcblk2boot0
brw-rw---- 1 root root 179, 24 Jan 1 2000 mmcblk2boot1
crw-rw---- 1 root root 248, 0 Jan 1 2000 mmcblk2rpmb
brw-rw---- 1 root root 179, 32 Jan 1 2000 mmcblk3
brw-rw---- 1 root root 179, 40 Jan 1 2000 mmcblk3boot0
brw-rw---- 1 root root 179, 48 Jan 1 2000 mmcblk3boot1
brw-rw---- 1 root root 179, 33 Jan 1 2000 mmcblk3p1
crw-rw---- 1 root root 248, 1 Jan 1 2000 mmcblk3rpmb

Notice the (248,0) and (248,1) character devices for RPMB.

# de3ee99b 20-Sep-2017 Linus Walleij <linus.walleij@linaro.org>

mmc: Delete bounce buffer handling

In may, Steven sent a patch deleting the bounce buffer handling
and the CONFIG_MMC_BLOCK_BOUNCE option.

I chose the less invasive path of making it a runtime config
option, and we merged that successfully for kernel v4.12.

The code is however just standing in the way and taking up
space for seemingly no gain on any systems in wide use today.

Pierre says the code was there to improve speed on TI SDHCI
controllers on certain HP laptops and possibly some Ricoh
controllers as well. Early SDHCI controllers lacked the
scatter-gather feature, which made software bounce buffers
a significant speed boost.

We are clearly talking about the list of SDHCI PCI-based
MMC/SD card readers found in the pci_ids[] list in
drivers/mmc/host/sdhci-pci-core.c.

The TI SDHCI derivative is not supported by the upstream
kernel. This leaves the Ricoh.

What we can however notice is that the x86 defconfigs in the
kernel did not enable CONFIG_MMC_BLOCK_BOUNCE option, which
means that any such laptop would have to have a custom
configured kernel to actually take advantage of this
bounce buffer speed-up. It simply seems like there was
a speed optimization for the Ricoh controllers that noone
was using. (I have not checked the distro defconfigs but
I am pretty sure the situation is the same there.)

Bounce buffers increased performance on the OMAP HSMMC
at one point, and was part of the original submission in
commit a45c6cb81647 ("[ARM] 5369/1: omap mmc: Add new
omap hsmmc controller for 2430 and 34xx, v3")

This optimization was removed in
commit 0ccd76d4c236 ("omap_hsmmc: Implement scatter-gather
emulation")
which found that scatter-gather emulation provided even
better performance.

The same was introduced for SDHCI in
commit 2134a922c6e7 ("sdhci: scatter-gather (ADMA) support")

I am pretty positively convinced that software
scatter-gather emulation will do for any host controller what
the bounce buffers were doing. Essentially, the bounce buffer
was a reimplementation of software scatter-gather-emulation in
the MMC subsystem, and it should be done away with.

mmc: debugfs: Move block debugfs into block module

If we don't have the block layer enabled, we do not present card
status and extcsd in the debugfs.

Debugfs is not ABI, and maintaining files of no relevance for
non-block devices comes at a high maintenance cost if we shall
support it with the block layer compiled out.

The debugfs entries suffer from all the same starvation
issues as the other userspace things, under e.g. a heavy
dd operation.

The expected number of debugfs users utilizing these two
debugfs files is already low as there is an ioctl() to get the
same information using the mmc-tools, and of these few users
the expected number of people using it on SDIO or combo cards
are expected to be zero.

It is therefore logical to move this over to the block layer
when it is enabled, using the new custom requests and issue
it using the block request queue.

On the other hand it moves some debugfs code from debugfs.c
and into block.c.

Tested during heavy dd load by cat:in the status file.

mmc: block: move single ioctl() commands to block requests

This wraps single ioctl() commands into block requests using
the custom block layer request types REQ_OP_DRV_IN and
REQ_OP_DRV_OUT.

By doing this we are loosening the grip on the big host lock,
since two calls to mmc_get_card()/mmc_put_card() are removed.

We are storing the ioctl() in/out argument as a pointer in
the per-request struct mmc_blk_request container. Since we
now let the block layer allocate this data, blk_get_request()
will allocate it for us and we can immediately dereference
it and use it to pass the argument into the block layer.

We refactor the if/else/if/else ladder in mmc_blk_issue_rq()
as part of the job, keeping some extra attention to the
case when a NULL req is passed into this function and
making that pipeline flush more explicit.

Tested on the ux500 with the userspace:
mmc extcsd read /dev/mmcblk3
resulting in a successful EXTCSD info dump back to the
console.

This commit fixes a starvation issue in the MMC/SD stack
that can be easily provoked in the following way by
issueing the following commands in sequence:

> dd if=/dev/mmcblk3 of=/dev/null bs=1M &
> mmc extcs read /dev/mmcblk3

Before this patch, the extcsd read command would hang
(starve) while waiting for the dd command to finish since
the block layer was holding the card/host lock.

After this patch, the extcsd ioctl() command is nicely
interpersed with the rest of the block commands and we
can issue a bunch of ioctl()s from userspace while there
is some busy block IO going on without any problems.

Conversely userspace ioctl()s can no longer starve
the block layer by holding the card/host lock.

mmc: core: Allocate per-request data using the block layer core

The mmc_queue_req is a per-request state container the MMC core uses
to carry bounce buffers, pointers to asynchronous requests and so on.
Currently allocated as a static array of objects, then as a request
comes in, a mmc_queue_req is assigned to it, and used during the
lifetime of the request.

This is backwards compared to how other block layer drivers work:
they usally let the block core provide a per-request struct that get
allocated right beind the struct request, and which can be obtained
using the blk_mq_rq_to_pdu() helper. (The _mq_ infix in this function
name is misleading: it is used by both the old and the MQ block
layer.)

The per-request struct gets allocated to the size stored in the queue
variable .cmd_size initialized using the .init_rq_fn() and
cleaned up using .exit_rq_fn().

The block layer code makes the MMC core rely on this mechanism to
allocate the per-request mmc_queue_req state container.

Doing this make a lot of complicated queue handling go away. We only
need to keep the .qnct that keeps count of how many request are
currently being processed by the MMC layer. The MQ block layer will
replace also this once we transition to it.

Doing this refactoring is necessary to move the ioctl() operations
into custom block layer requests tagged with REQ_OP_DRV_[IN|OUT]
instead of the custom code using the BigMMCHostLock that we have
today: those require that per-request data be obtainable easily from
a request after creating a custom request with e.g.:

struct request *rq = blk_get_request(q, REQ_OP_DRV_IN, __GFP_RECLAIM);
struct mmc_queue_req *mq_rq = req_to_mq_rq(rq);

And this is not possible with the current construction, as the request
is not immediately assigned the per-request state container, but
instead it gets assigned when the request finally enters the MMC
queue, which is way too late for custom requests.

mmc: queue: Share mmc request array between partitions

eMMC can have multiple internal partitions that are represented as separate
disks / queues. However switching between partitions is only done when the
queue is empty. Consequently the array of mmc requests that are queued can
be shared between partitions saving memory.

Keep a pointer to the mmc request queue on the card, and use that instead
of allocating a new one for each partition.

mmc: block: Introduce queue semantics

Change from viewing the requests in progress as 'current' and 'previous',
to viewing them as a queue. The current request is allocated to the first
free slot. The presence of incomplete requests is determined from the
count (mq->qcnt) of entries in the queue. Non-read-write requests (i.e.
discards and flushes) are not added to the queue at all and require no
special handling. Also no special handling is needed for the
MMC_BLK_NEW_REQUEST case.

As well as allowing an arbitrarily sized queue, the queue thread function
is significantly simpler.

mmc: queue: turn queue flags into bools

Instead of masking and setting two bits in the "flags" field
for the mmc_queue, just use two bools named "suspended" and
"new_request".

The masking and setting would likely have race conditions
anyways, it is better to use a simple member like this.

mmc: block: rename mmc_active to areq

The mmc_active member of struct mmc_queue_req has a very
confusing name: this is certainly not always "active", it is
the asynchronous request associated by the mmc_queue_req
but it is not guaranteed to be "active" in any sense, such
as being running on the host.

Simply rename this member to "areq".

mmc: core: First step in cleaning up private mmc header files

This is the first step in cleaning up the private mmc header files. In this
change we makes sure each header file builds standalone, as that helps to
resolve dependencies.

While changing this, it also seems reasonable to stop including other
headers from inside a header itself which it don't depend upon.
Additionally, in some cases such dependencies are better resolved by
forward declaring the needed struct.

mmc: block: Move files to core

Once upon a time it made sense to keep the mmc block device driver and its
related code, in its own directory called card. Over time, more an more
functions/structures have become shared through generic mmc header files,
between the core and the card directory. In other words, the relationship
between them has become closer.

By sharing functions/structures via generic header files, it becomes easy
for outside users to abuse them. In a way to avoid that from happen, let's
move the files from card directory into the core directory, as it enables
us to move definitions of functions/structures into mmc core specific
header files.

Note, this is only the first step in providing a cleaner mmc interface for
outside users. Following changes will do the actual cleanup, as that is not
part of this change.
