Hi, Boris and Thomas Let me do some explanation. >> if (NAND == SLC ) { // on-die ECC only exists in SLC //check device ID >> byte 4 >> if ((ID.byte4 & 0x02) == 0x02) {// internal ECC level ==10b > >So here the MT29F1G08ABADAWP datasheet says 0x2 <=> 4bit/512bytes ECC. > If the NAND supports on-die ECC, here should be 10b, not matter it is 8bit or 4bit, You are correct, MT29F1G08ABADAWP is 0x2, its explanation is 4bit/512bytes ECC. But for the 70s, it is 8bit on-die ECC, but it is still 10b. So that why here using these two bits to determine if exist on-die ECC. What's more, for some old products, they don't support on-die ECC, Sometimes, here is still 01b, so still need following codes to do further determinations. >> if (ID.byte4 & 0x80) {//on-Die ECC enabled > >Did you read my last reply? >Thomas discovered that ID[4].bit7 is actually reflecting the ECC engine state (1 if >the engine is enabled, 0 if it's disabled), not whether the NAND supports on-die >ECC or not, so no this test is not reliable. > For the on-die ECC, it is not always default enabled. It depends on requirement from costumers. If on-die ECC is not enabled, bit7 is 0. It can be switched through "Feature Operations". >> if (ONFI.byte112 == 4) >> 60s SLC NAND with on-die ECC >> else if (ONFI.byte112 == 8) >> 70s SLC NAND with on-die ECC > >This is completely fucked up! Now the ONFI param page says the NAND requires >8bits/512bytes, while the ID bytes advertised an on-die ECC providing >4bits/512bytes correctability. I think, my previous answers can answer this confusion. >So either your algorithm is wrong, or the ID and ONFI param page are contracting >(not sure what solution I'd prefer...). > >> else >> Doesn't support on-die ECC > >Sorry to say that, but I find it worrisome that even someone from Micron is not >able to get it right. > I am ashamed. I have been in Micron for two years, for some old products, I am also not very clear. But I checked all the SLC-NAND datasheet with on-die ECC with our AE, and had this final pseudo code. >I think we'll stick to the model name to detect whether on-die ECC is supported. > >Regards, > >Boris beanhuo -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe devicetree" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
