[PATCH AUTOSEL 5.14 01/32] dt-bindings: mtd: gpmc: Fix the ECC bytes vs. OOB bytes equation

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Miquel Raynal <miquel.raynal@xxxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 778cb8e39f6ec252be50fc3850d66f3dcbd5dd5a ]

"PAGESIZE / 512" is the number of ECC chunks.
"ECC_BYTES" is the number of bytes needed to store a single ECC code.
"2" is the space reserved by the bad block marker.

"2 + (PAGESIZE / 512) * ECC_BYTES" should of course be lower or equal
than the total number of OOB bytes, otherwise it won't fit.

Fix the equation by substituting s/>=/<=/.

 	helps in determining if given device can accommodate ECC syndrome:
