- JFFS2 related commands implemented in mtd-utils style
- Support for bad blocks
- Bad block testing commands
- NAND lock commands
Please take a look at doc/README.nand for more details
Patch by Guido Classen, 10 Oct 2006
Modifications are based on the linux kernel approach and
support two use cases:
1) Add O= to the make command line
'make O=/tmp/build all'
2) Set environement variable BUILD_DIR to point to the desired location
'export BUILD_DIR=/tmp/build'
'make'
The second approach can also be used with a MAKEALL script
'export BUILD_DIR=/tmp/build'
'./MAKEALL'
Command line 'O=' setting overrides BUILD_DIR environent variable.
When none of the above methods is used the local build is performed and
the object files are placed in the source directory.
* For READ_STATUS and READID commands always 8 bytes need to be read from
NDDB. Otherwise they stay there and get send to flash as the first data
word when writing.
* In nand_base.c the oob variable is not reset so this->oob_buf is
overwritten what eventually screws up the bad block descriptor table.
code and in SoC code). Boards using the old way have CFG_NAND_LEGACY and
BOARDLIBS = drivers/nand_legacy/libnand_legacy.a added. Build breakage for
NETTA.ERR and NETTA_ISDN - will go away when the new NAND support is
implemented for these boards.
