(here nsector != chip->ecc.steps) OK. I still don't have a full understanding about the ECC schemes so to ensure we don't break anything I can just leave nsectors as it is and probably just store a copy of it in omap_nand_info to avoid reading it back from gpmc_ecc_config. I still have a few questions to clarify my understanding. The only difference between OMAP_ECC_CODE_BCHx_HW_DETECTION_SW and OMAP_ECC_CODE_BCHx_HW is that in the former the _correction_ is done by software and in the latter the _correction_ is done by hardware (i.e. ELM module). In both cases the _detection_ is done by the same hardware IP via ecc.calculate(), i.e. omap_calculate_ecc_bch(). so why should nsector be different for both in the _detection_ stage? An I right that ecc_steps is nothing but number of sub-blocks ECC calculation and correction needs to be done for larger pages. This is a function of ECC hw capability (chip->ecc.size) and NAND flash capability (mtd->writesize). i.e. ecc_steps = mtd->writesize / chip->ecc.size We hardcode chip->ecc.size to 512 for all the ECC schemes in omap_nand_probe() so calculate and correct will always be called for 512 byte sized blocks. So when does the usecase for nsector > 1 come in? cheers, -roger -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-omap" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
