Correct, my apologies as I should have clarified that "work by Boris Brezillon" does not mean "upsteam work". The code comes from Boris' github tree[1] and contains work that was not yet brought upstream, yet is required for NAND on sunxi to work.
It would probably be better to handle this as part of a general sync with the Linux mtd code.
Ideally yes, but. In upstream Linux MTD we have a few issues to address as shown by Boris' patch-set, most importantly:
- NAND chip timings (patch 1 to 3)
Patches 1-3 are already in Linux (if there are subtle differences needed those should be followup patches, with an explanation of why it needs to differ from Linux), except that patch 3 for some reason has "onfi_timing_mode_ds" where Linux has "onfi_timing_mode_default".
I will try to do a sync soon.
If you could do that that would be great, that should at least shrink the size of this patch-set by 3 patches.
I assume that you will not be sending a pull-req for this sync for v2015.07, if you can make a git branch with the sync available somewhere for us to build on top of, then that would be great.
Thanks & Regards,
Hans
