[U-Boot-Users] [PATCH RFC] ARM: Davinci: NAND fix for large page ECC and linux compatibility

U-boot's HW ECC support for large page NAND on Davinci is completely broken. Some kernels, such as the 2.6.10 one supported by MontaVista for Davinci, rely upon this broken behaviour as they share the same code for ECCs. In the existing scheme, error detection *might* work on large page, but error correction definitely does not. Small page ECC correction works, but the format is not compatible with the mainline git kernel.
This patch adds ECC code that matches what is currently in the Davinci git repository (since NAND support was added in 2.6.24). This makes the ECC and OOB layout written by u-boot compatible with Linux for both small page and large page devices and fixes ECC correction for large page devices.
The code depends on a #define CFG_LINUX_COMPATIBLE_ECC, which is undefined by default, making the default state backwards compatible. I have verified this by compiling without the #define and producing a binary byte-for-byte identical to one without this patch.
[NOTE: I have not yet been able to get my hands on a board with small-page NAND to test, but large page does work. If anybody is interested in testing it, please do and let me know if it works for you (i.e. uboot with this patch and davinci git kernel can read/write the same NAND).]

Turn this ON if you want backwards compatibility.
Turn this OFF if you want U-Boot and the Linux davinci git kernel

Thanks for following up on this, Hugo.

This version should now be 1.3.4. Otherwise, ack.
Cheers, Bernard.

Based on original patch by Bernard Blackham bernard@largestprime.net
U-boot's HW ECC support for large page NAND on Davinci is completely broken. Some kernels, such as the 2.6.10 one supported by MontaVista for DaVinci, rely upon this broken behaviour as they share the same code for ECCs. In the existing scheme, error detection *might* work on large page, but error correction definitely does not. Small page ECC correction works, but the format is not compatible with the mainline git kernel.
This patch adds ECC code that matches what is currently in the Davinci git repository (since NAND support was added in 2.6.24). This makes the ECC and OOB layout written by u-boot compatible with Linux for both small page and large page devices and fixes ECC correction for large page devices.
The old behaviour can be restored by defining the macro CFG_DAVINCI_BROKEN_ECC, which is undefined by default.
Applied to u-boot-nand-flash. Next time, please put the commit message above the "---", except for extra commentary that isn't intended to go into the git history.
