Hi Miquel,

I am testing last nand/next branch with the MP1 board, and i get an issue since this patch was applied.

When I read the SLC NAND using nandump tool (reading page 0 and page 1), the OOB is not displayed at expected. For page 1, oob is displayed when for page 0 the first data of the page are displayed.

The nanddump command used is: nanddump -c -o -l 0x2000 /dev/mtd9

Page 0:

I have checked what is happening in rawnand_enable_cont_reads function,
and for page 0, con_read.ongoing = true when for page 1 con_read.ongoing = false

page 0:
[ 51.785623] rawnand_enable_cont_reads: page=0, col=0, readlen=4096, mtd->writesize=4096
[   51.793751] rawnand_enable_cont_reads: end_page=1, end_col=0
[   51.799356] rawnand_enable_cont_reads: con_read.ongoing=1

page 1:
[ 53.493337] rawnand_enable_cont_reads: page=1, col=0, readlen=4096, mtd->writesize=4096
[   53.501413] rawnand_enable_cont_reads: end_page=1, end_col=0
[   53.507013] rawnand_enable_cont_reads: con_read.ongoing=0

I do not expect con_read.ongoing set to true when we read one page.

I have also dumped what happened when we read the bad block table and it is also strange for me in particular the value end_page.

[    1.587700] rawnand_enable_cont_reads: con_read.ongoing=0

I currently do not understand the logic implemented but there is something suspect around end_page variable.

end_page = DIV_ROUND_UP(col + readlen, mtd->writesize);
=> So, if i have well understood, end_page is the number of pages we are going to read.

if (page + 1 > end_page) {
=> We are comparing the page that we are starting to read with the number of pages to read and not the last page to read

chip->cont_read.first_page = page;
chip->cont_read.last_page = end_page;
=> first_page is the first page to read and last page is the number of pages to read.

Before this patch,
chip->cont_read.last_page = page + ((readlen >> chip->page_shift) & chip->pagemask);
=> last page was the last page to read.

Christophe Kerello.

The current logic is probably fine but is a bit convoluted. Plus, we
don't want partial pages to be part of the sequential operation just in
case the core would optimize the page read with a subpage read (which
would break the sequence). This may happen on the first and last page
only, so if the start offset or the end offset is not aligned with a
page boundary, better avoid them to prevent any risk.
