Subject[PATCH v2 1/2] mtd: rawnand: fsl_ifc: fix FSL NAND driver to read
Date
Hi Miquel and Boris,

Thank you for your response. The following is the reposting the v2 version of the patch (also in the attachment).

Subject: [PATCH v2 1/2] mtd: rawnand: fsl_ifc: fix FSL NAND driver to read
all ONFI parameter pages

Per ONFI specification (Rev. 4.0), if the CRC of the first parameter page
read is not valid, the host should read redundant parameter page copies.
Fix FSL NAND driver to read the two redundant copies which are mandatory
in the specification.

Signed-off-by: Jane Wan <Jane.Wan@nokia.com>

[Jane] Thank you for the info. I'm reposting the v2 version of the patch.

[Jane] I understand. I can try to investigate it. The change is nontrivial. Our current
Kernel is based on v4.1.8 coming from vendors BSP. The testing of massive changes
in the latest kernel version may also be a challenge. I wish the current patch still could
help someone who may encounter the same problem we had recently with the bad
NAND chips.
