SubjectRE: [PATCH 2/2] Use bit-wise majority to recover the contents of ONFI parameter
Date
Hi Miquèl,

Thank you for your response and feedback. I've modified the fix based on your comments.
Please see the updated patch file at the end of this message (also in attachment).
My answers to your comments/questions are inline in the previous message.

The new patch is rebased on top of v4.17-rc1.

Best regards,
Jane

Updated patch:

Subject: [PATCH 2/2] mtd: rawnand: fsl_ifc: use bit-wise majority to recover
the contents of ONFI parameter

Per ONFI specification (Rev. 4.0), if all parameter pages have invalid
CRC values, the bit-wise majority may be used to recover the contents of
the parameter pages from the parameter page copies present.

Subject: Re: [PATCH 2/2] Use bit-wise majority to recover the contents of ONFI parameter
Hi Jane,

Same comments as before, please: get the right maintainers, add a commit log, rebase and fix the title prefix.
[Jane] Added. Thanks.

Have you ever needed/tried this algorithm before?
[Jane] Yes, we got a batch of particularly bad NAND chips recently and we needed these changes to make them work reliably over temperature. The patch was verified using these bad chips.

Please use u8 instead of uint8_t (./scripts/checkpatch.pl --strict will give you the list of styling issues to fix.
[Jane] Changed.

I don't think you should allocate that much space on the stack, please use dynamic allocation.
[Jane] Please see new patch file.

This is a maximum derivation, there are helpers for that.
[Jane] Not needed after changing to dynamic allocation.

I am not sure this is relevant, won't you read only 256 bytes anyway?
[Jane] I modified the code to allocate a buffer to store all 3 pages. If in case all 3 pages failed, use the data stored
In the buffer to recover the content through bit-wise majority.

Space.
[Jane] checked the patch through checkpatch.pl.

'copy' is maybe not a meaningful name.
[Jane] 'copy' is removed. Please see new patch file.

v8 could be declared in the else statement of in the for loop.
The name could also be changed.
[Jane] Changed. Please see the new patch file.

Please use the BIT() macro.
[Jane] Changed. Please see the new patch file.

Space.
