[U-Boot] QorIQ P1020 NAND Flash 2k-Page-Size Problem
Hi all,
I have a custom Freescale QorIQ P1020 board, with a serial NOR Flash (eSPI bus) and a NAND Flash (eLBC/FCM bus). Im booting from the NOR flash.
The old NAND (512 bytes page size) was working perfectly, so I swapped for another with 2k bytes page size.
I changed in the config file:
CONFIG_SYS_NAND_OR_PRELIM: added OR_FCM_PGS option
CONFIG_SYS_NAND_BLOCK_SIZE: set to (128 * 1024)
But this new NAND flash does not work. If I enter the command "nand erase.chip", all sectors appears with bad block.
The ID is read correctly (Micron MT29F2G08ABAEAWP):
NAND device: Manufacturer ID: 0x2c, Chip ID: 0xda (Micron NAND 256MiB 3,3V 8-bit), page size: 2048, OOB size: 64
NAND info also seems OK:
=> nand info
Device 0: nand0, sector size 128 KiB Page size 2048 b OOB size 64 b Erase size 131072 b
I tried to enable "#define CONFIG_SYS_NAND_ONFI_DETECTION", but the command READ_ID at address 0x20 does not return "ONFI".
I tried U-Boot versions 2014.04 and 2014.07, same problem in both.
Any suggestions/ideas?
Best regards,
-- Allan

Are the timings correct for your new NAND chip?
What do you see if you dump the raw NAND contents?
Have you seen this behavior with more than one instance of the new flash chip type?

My eLBC is at 25MHz, I also tried 50MHz and 100MHz.
My current OR options are: OR_FCM_PGS | OR_FCM_CSCT | OR_FCM_CST | OR_FCM_CHT | OR_FCM_SCY_1 | OR_FCM_TRLX | OR_FCM_EHTR
I tried some combinations, without success.

With 2k page-size I only tested this PN: MT29F2G08ABAEAWP
And others boards with this same NAND, have the same behavior.

I got a NAND from ST-Micro, with 2k page-size. It works perfectly! And it accepts a lot of OR timings combination.
I think is something related specifically to Micron....

I don't know what the cause of the problem you're seeing is, but MT29F2G08ABAEAWP is not a good match for P1020 because it requires 4 bits of ECC per 528 bytes. P1020 has eLBC which is only capable of one bit correction per 512 bytes. So you'd need to either use software ECC, or enable support for the NAND chip's internal ECC.
