[PATCH V3 1/2] mtd: allow getting MTD device associated with a specific DT node

From: Rafał Miłecki rafal@milecki.pl
MTD subsystem API allows interacting with MTD devices (e.g. reading, writing, handling bad blocks). So far a random driver could get MTD device only by its name (get_mtd_device_nm()). This change allows getting them also by a DT node.
This API is required for drivers handling DT defined MTD partitions in a specific way (e.g. U-Boot (sub)partition with environment variables).

U-Boot stores its setup as environment variables. It's a list of key-value pairs stored on flash device with a custom header.
This commit adds an NVMEM driver that: 1. Provides NVMEM access to environment vars binary data 2. Extracts variables as NVMEM cells
Current Linux's NVMEM sysfs API allows reading whole NVMEM data block. It can be used by user-space tools for reading U-Boot env vars block without the hassle of finding its location. Parsing will still need to be re-done there.
Kernel-parsed NVMEM cells can be read however by Linux drivers. This may be uesful for Ethernet drivers for reading device MAC address which is often stored as U-Boot env variable.

support for verifying & exporting such data. It also exposes variables
as NVMEM cells so they can be referenced by other drivers.
If compiled as module it will be called nvmem_u-boot-env.
You should probably mention that this is tied to MTD somewhere in the help text as u-boot env on EEPROM/raw eMMC is not covered by this.

I believe it can't. In any case \0 is a always a separator.

U-Boot stores its setup as environment variables. It's a list of key-value pairs stored on flash device with a custom header.
This commit adds an NVMEM driver that:
- Provides NVMEM access to environment vars binary data
- Extracts variables as NVMEM cells
Current Linux's NVMEM sysfs API allows reading whole NVMEM data block. It can be used by user-space tools for reading U-Boot env vars block without the hassle of finding its location. Parsing will still need to be re-done there.
Kernel-parsed NVMEM cells can be read however by Linux drivers. This may be uesful for Ethernet drivers for reading device MAC address which is often stored as U-Boot env variable.

V3: Use of_get_mtd_device_by_node() (thanks Ahmad) & update description V2: Drop ARCH_BCM4908 dependency as there are plenty architectures using U-Boot bootloader. Thanks Srinivas.
As noticed by Ahmad a missing NVMEM subsystem feature is user-space access to parsed NVMEM cells. That is something I started working on some time ago and I'm planning to get back to at some point, please check: [PATCH 2/2] nvmem: expose NVMEM cells in sysfs https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20211220064730.28806-2-zajec5@gmail.com/

Partitions are mtd devices themselves and the mtd layer directly associates these devices to their OF node, so it should be possible to do a of_get_mtd_device_by_node(np) which gets you the partition. You can use the whole mtd device then and do not have to fiddle with reg properties, offsets and sizes in your driver yourself.

Just for the record, there will be one mtd device per partition, but the "full" mtd device will only exist if the configuration contains CONFIG_MTD_PARTITIONED_MASTER.

MTD subsystem API allows interacting with MTD devices (e.g. reading, writing, handling bad blocks). So far a random driver could get MTD device only by its name (get_mtd_device_nm()). This change allows getting them also by a DT node.
This API is required for drivers handling DT defined MTD partitions in a specific way (e.g. U-Boot (sub)partition with environment variables).

I need some extra hint, please. This is how many similar functions look like:
I know most implementation today use of_ functions directly but it seems like there is a global move towards fwnodes now, and I was wondering if using those instead (which might also apply to other types of "nodes" than DT ones) could be possible.
But looking into existing implementations, I came across the pwm implem which features: - of_pwm_get() - acpi_pwm_get()
And finally a fwnode_pwm_get() which does:
if (is_of_node()) of_pwm_get(): else if (is_acpi_node()) acpi_pwm_get();
So actually my suggestion is meaningless. I'm fine with the current approach.

MTD subsystem API allows interacting with MTD devices (e.g. reading, writing, handling bad blocks). So far a random driver could get MTD device only by its name (get_mtd_device_nm()). This change allows getting them also by a DT node.
This API is required for drivers handling DT defined MTD partitions in a specific way (e.g. U-Boot (sub)partition with environment variables).

V3: First introduction of of_get_mtd_device_by_node()
mtd maintainers: please let know how would you like this patch processed. Would that be OK for you to Review/Ack it and let it go through NVMEM tree?

Shouldn't this be -EPROBE_DEFER? That way drivers making use of this function can defer probe until the device is probed.
