For writes, you'll need to do a read-modify-write sequence on the entire block, after you determine what the proper block is given prior block-skipping. Or better, don't try to use this simplistic mechanism to do writes in the middle of a partition -- use something like ubi that was meant for this.

Hello Scott,
Thank you for the kind reply. Is it also possible instead of using read-modify-write which you've suggested, just to call the nand_write_skip_bad (the patch version) with 0xFFFF... at the start of partition, so that nand_write_skip_bad is given aligned offset & unaligned length? As I undesratnd, an attempt to write "ff" in nand will result in no change of data.
Best Regards,
Ran
