If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From 3a4a893dbb19e229db3b753f0462520b561dee98 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Miquel Raynal <miquel.raynal@xxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon, 17 Jul 2023 21:42:20 +0200 Subject: mtd: rawnand: arasan: Ensure program page operations are successful From: Miquel Raynal <miquel.raynal@xxxxxxxxxxx> commit 3a4a893dbb19e229db3b753f0462520b561dee98 upstream. The NAND core complies with the ONFI specification, which itself mentions that after any program or erase operation, a status check should be performed to see whether the operation was finished *and* successful. The NAND core offers helpers to finish a page write (sending the "PAGE PROG" command, waiting for the NAND chip to be ready again, and checking the operation status). But in some cases, advanced controller drivers might want to optimize this and craft their own page write helper to leverage additional hardware capabilities, thus not always using the core facilities. Some drivers, like this one, do not use the core helper to finish a page write because the final cycles are automatically managed by the hardware. In this case, the additional care must be taken to manually perform the final status check. Let's read the NAND chip status at the end of the page write helper and return -EIO upon error.
