[PATCH v4 07/21] mtd: rawnand: Create a new enumeration to describe OOB placement

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

 



There is currently a confusion between the ECC type/mode/provider
(eg. hardware, software, on-die or none) and the ECC bytes placement.

Create a new enumeration to describe this placement.
