This is a SoC with 6.01 controller. Sometimes I get this: [ 0.478443] brcmstb_nand 18028000.nand: timeout waiting for command 255 (9) [ 0.485385] brcmstb_nand 18028000.nand: intfc status f0000000 [ 0.588393] brcmstb_nand 18028000.nand: timeout waiting for command 144 (7) [ 0.595326] brcmstb_nand 18028000.nand: intfc status f0000000 [ 0.698392] brcmstb_nand 18028000.nand: timeout waiting for command 144 (7) [ 0.705322] brcmstb_nand 18028000.nand: intfc status f0000000 [ 0.711051] nand: second ID read did not match 20,20 against 20,00 [ 0.717197] nand: No NAND device found Other time: [ 0.478441] brcmstb_nand 18028000.nand: timeout waiting for command 255 (9) [ 0.485385] brcmstb_nand 18028000.nand: intfc status f0000000 [ 0.588396] brcmstb_nand 18028000.nand: timeout waiting for command 144 (7) [ 0.595327] brcmstb_nand 18028000.nand: intfc status f0000000 [ 0.698393] brcmstb_nand 18028000.nand: timeout waiting for command 144 (7) [ 0.705321] brcmstb_nand 18028000.nand: intfc status f0000000 [ 0.808394] brcmstb_nand 18028000.nand: timeout waiting for command 144 (7) [ 0.815326] brcmstb_nand 18028000.nand: intfc status f0000000 [ 0.918392] brcmstb_nand 18028000.nand: timeout waiting for command 144 (7) [ 0.925322] brcmstb_nand 18028000.nand: intfc status f0000000 [ 0.931047] nand: No NAND device found (Btw. I guess you could use 0x%x instead of %d for printing commands). It seems that brcmnand_ctlrdy_irq never fires on my device. Just like controller was never generating any IRQ. I started comparing your driver with OpenWrt's bcm_nand.c (which should be very similar to Broadcom's SDK NAND driver for ARM). Below are few things I've noticed. 1) In bcm_nand.c IRQ handler also doesn't seem to be fired (or very rarely). 2) In brcmnand_waitfunc you seem to be always waiting for an interrupt. This is different from OpenWrt's driver and Broadcom's reference code. In bcm_nand.c in bcmnand_wait_cmd we first check BIT(31) of IRQ STATUS (0x6c / 0x14 / BRCMNAND_INTFC_STATUS). If it's set, we assume command was already completed. 3) In bcm_nand.c in IRQ waiting function bcmnand_wait_interrupt we ack/enable/disable NANDC_IRQ_CONTROLLER_RDY (nand_ctlrdy) IRQ. I don't see that in your code, not sure if it's important. 4) It seems bcm_nand.c also uses some extra register 0x500 and its bit 0x1 (we call it NANDC_IDM_IO_CTRL_RDY). It this bit it set, we don't ever care about NANDC_IRQ_CONTROLLER_RDY (nand_ctlrdy) IRQ. -- 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
