I see: idx 0 in bbm_bytes_buf is the data at offset bbpos.

However, technically, the BBM could be located in the first, second or last page of the block. You should check the three of them are 0xFF before declaring the block is not bad. The more I look at the function, the more I wonder if you actually need it. Why does the generic nand_block_bad() implementation in the core do not fit? > >> err: > >> return bad; > >> } > > > > Thanks, > > Miquèl -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-arm-msm" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
