Hi Álvaro, + YouChing and Jaime from Macronix TLDR for them: there is a misbehavior since Mason added block protection support. Just checking if the blocks are protected seems to misconfigure the chip entirely, see below. Any hints? noltari@xxxxxxxxx wrote on Fri, 24 Mar 2023 15:15:47 +0100: > Hi Miquèl, > > 2023-03-24 14:45 GMT+01:00, Miquel Raynal <miquel.raynal@xxxxxxxxxxx>: > > Hi Álvaro, > > > > noltari@xxxxxxxxx wrote on Fri, 24 Mar 2023 12:21:11 +0100: > > > >> El vie, 24 mar 2023 a las 11:49, Miquel Raynal > >> (<miquel.raynal@xxxxxxxxxxx>) escribió: > >> > > >> > Hi Álvaro, > >> > > >> > noltari@xxxxxxxxx wrote on Fri, 24 Mar 2023 11:31:17 +0100: > >> > > >> > > Hi Miquèl, > >> > > > >> > > El vie, 24 mar 2023 a las 10:40, Miquel Raynal > >> > > (<miquel.raynal@xxxxxxxxxxx>) escribió: > >> > > > > >> > > > Hi Álvaro, > >> > > > > >> > > > noltari@xxxxxxxxx wrote on Thu, 23 Mar 2023 13:45:09 +0100: > >> > > > > >> > > > > Add new "mxic,disable-block-protection" binding documentation. > >> > > > > This binding allows disabling block protection support for those > >> > > > > devices not > >> > > > > supporting it. > >> > > > > > >> > > > > Signed-off-by: Álvaro Fernández Rojas <noltari@xxxxxxxxx> > >> > > > > --- > >> > > > > Documentation/devicetree/bindings/mtd/nand-macronix.txt | 3 +++ > >> > > > > 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+) > >> > > > > > >> > > > > diff --git > >> > > > > a/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/mtd/nand-macronix.txt > >> > > > > b/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/mtd/nand-macronix.txt > >> > > > > index ffab28a2c4d1..03f65ca32cd3 100644 > >> > > > > --- a/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/mtd/nand-macronix.txt > >> > > > > +++ b/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/mtd/nand-macronix.txt > >> > > > > @@ -16,6 +16,9 @@ in children nodes. > >> > > > > Required NAND chip properties in children mode: > >> > > > > - randomizer enable: should be "mxic,enable-randomizer-otp" > >> > > > > > >> > > > > +Optional NAND chip properties in children mode: > >> > > > > +- block protection disable: should be > >> > > > > "mxic,disable-block-protection" > >> > > > > + > >> > > > > >> > > > Besides the fact that nowadays we prefer to see binding conversions > >> > > > to > >> > > > yaml before adding anything, I don't think this will fly. > >> > > > > >> > > > I'm not sure exactly what "disable block protection" means, we > >> > > > already have similar properties like "lock" and "secure-regions", > >> > > > not > >> > > > sure they will fit but I think it's worth checking. > >> > > > >> > > As explained in 2/2, commit 03a539c7a118 introduced a regression on > >> > > Sercomm H500-s (BCM63268) OpenWrt devices with Macronix MX30LF1G18AC > >> > > which hangs the device. > >> > > > >> > > This is the log with block protection disabled: > >> > > [ 0.495831] bcm6368_nand 10000200.nand: there is not valid maps > >> > > for > >> > > state default > >> > > [ 0.504995] nand: device found, Manufacturer ID: 0xc2, Chip ID: > >> > > 0xf1 > >> > > [ 0.511526] nand: Macronix MX30LF1G18AC > >> > > [ 0.515586] nand: 128 MiB, SLC, erase size: 128 KiB, page size: > >> > > 2048, OOB size: 64 > >> > > [ 0.523516] bcm6368_nand 10000200.nand: detected 128MiB total, > >> > > 128KiB blocks, 2KiB pages, 16B OOB, 8-bit, BCH-4 > >> > > [ 0.535912] Bad block table found at page 65472, version 0x01 > >> > > [ 0.544268] Bad block table found at page 65408, version 0x01 > >> > > [ 0.954329] 9 fixed-partitions partitions found on MTD device > >> > > brcmnand.0 > >> > > ... > >> > > > >> > > This is the log with block protection enabled: > >> > > [ 0.495095] bcm6368_nand 10000200.nand: there is not valid maps > >> > > for > >> > > state default > >> > > [ 0.504249] nand: device found, Manufacturer ID: 0xc2, Chip ID: > >> > > 0xf1 > >> > > [ 0.510772] nand: Macronix MX30LF1G18AC > >> > > [ 0.514874] nand: 128 MiB, SLC, erase size: 128 KiB, page size: > >> > > 2048, OOB size: 64 > >> > > [ 0.522780] bcm6368_nand 10000200.nand: detected 128MiB total, > >> > > 128KiB blocks, 2KiB pages, 16B OOB, 8-bit, BCH-4 > >> > > [ 0.539687] Bad block table not found for chip 0 > >> > > [ 0.550153] Bad block table not found for chip 0 > >> > > [ 0.555069] Scanning device for bad blocks > >> > > [ 0.601213] CPU 1 Unable to handle kernel paging request at > >> > > virtual > >> > > address 10277f00, epc == 8039ce70, ra == 8016ad50 > >> > > *** Device hangs *** > >> > > > >> > > Enabling macronix_nand_block_protection_support() makes the device > >> > > unable to detect the bad block table and hangs it when trying to scan > >> > > for bad blocks. > >> > > >> > Please trace nand_macronix.c and look: > >> > - are the get_features and set_features really supported by the > >> > controller driver?
