2009-06-05mtd: Flex-OneNAND supportRohit Hagargundgi
Add support for Samsung Flex-OneNAND devices. Flex-OneNAND combines SLC and MLC technologies into a single device. SLC area provides increased reliability and speed, suitable for storing code such as bootloader, kernel and root file system. MLC area provides high density and is suitable for storing user data. SLC and MLC regions can be configured through kernel parameter.

2007-02-07[MTD] OneNAND: Error message printing and bad block scan errosKyungmin Park
Provide the bad block scan with its own read function so that important error messages that are not from the the bad block scan, can always be printed. Signed-off-by: Adrian Hunter <ext-adrian.hunter@nokia.com> Signed-off-by: Kyungmin Park <kyungmin.park@samsung.com>
2007-02-01[MTD] OneNAND: Add support for auto-placement of out-of-band dataAdrian Hunter
Enable the use of oob operation mode MTD_OOB_AUTO with OneNAND. Note that MTD_OOB_RAW is still not supported. Signed-off-by: Adrian Hunter <ext-adrian.hunter@nokia.com> Signed-off-by: Kyungmin Park <kyungmin.park@samsung.com>
2007-01-22[MTD] OneNAND: Check first or second pages for bad block informationAdrian Hunter
OneNAND records bad block information in the out-of-band area of either the first or second page of a block. Due to a logic error, only the first page was being checked. Signed-off-by: Adrian Hunter <ext-adrian.hunter@nokia.com> Signed-off-by: Kyungmin Park <kyungmin.park@samsung.com>

OneNAND does 2 memory allocations for bad block information. Only one of them was being freed. Signed-off-by: Adrian Hunter <ext-adrian.hunter@nokia.com> Signed-off-by: Kyungmin Park <kyungmin.park@samsung.com>

2006-05-29[MTD] Rework the out of band handling completelyThomas Gleixner
Hopefully the last iteration on this! The handling of out of band data on NAND was accompanied by tons of fruitless discussions and halfarsed patches to make it work for a particular problem. Sufficiently annoyed by I all those "I know it better" mails and the resonable amount of discarded "it solves my problem" patches, I finally decided to go for the big rework. After removing the _ecc variants of mtd read/write functions the solution to satisfy the various requirements was to refactor the read/write _oob functions in mtd. The major change is that read/write_oob now takes a pointer to an operation descriptor structure "struct mtd_oob_ops".instead of having a function with at least seven arguments. read/write_oob which should probably renamed to a more descriptive name, can do the following tasks: - read/write out of band data - read/write data content and out of band data - read/write raw data content and out of band data (ecc disabled) struct mtd_oob_ops has a mode field, which determines the oob handling mode. Aside of the MTD_OOB_RAW mode, which is intended to be especially for diagnostic purposes and some internal functions e.g. bad block table creation, the other two modes are for mtd clients: MTD_OOB_PLACE puts/gets the given oob data exactly to/from the place which is described by the ooboffs and ooblen fields of the mtd_oob_ops strcuture. It's up to the caller to make sure that the byte positions are not used by the ECC placement algorithms. MTD_OOB_AUTO puts/gets the given oob data automaticaly to/from the places in the out of band area which are described by the oobfree tuples in the ecclayout data structre which is associated to the devicee. The decision whether data plus oob or oob only handling is done depends on the setting of the datbuf member of the data structure. When datbuf == NULL then the internal read/write_oob functions are selected, otherwise the read/write data routines are invoked. Tested on a few platforms with all variants. Please be aware of possible regressions for your particular device / application scenario Disclaimer: Any whining will be ignored from those who just contributed "hot air blurb" and never sat down to tackle the underlying problem of the mess in the NAND driver grown over time and the big chunk of work to fix up the existing users. The problem was not the holiness of the existing MTD interfaces. The problems was the lack of time to go for the big overhaul. It's easy to add more mess to the existing one, but it takes alot of effort to go for a real solution. Improvements and bugfixes are welcome! Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
2006-05-22[MTD] Introduce writesizeJoern Engel
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. Signed-off-by: Joern Engel <joern@wh.fh-wedel.de>
