[PATCH] mtd: atmel_nand: fix access to 16 bit NAND devices

From: Nikolaus Voss
Date: Wed Jan 25 2012 - 07:18:19 EST


commit fb5427508abbd635e877fabdf55795488119c2d6 optimizes PIO
NAND accesses by using IO memcpy instead of IO read/write
repeated functions.

This breaks access to 16 bit NAND devices as memcpy_fromio()/toio()
_always_ use byte accesses (see arch/arm/kernel/io.c), so with
16 bit NAND, one byte gets lost per NAND access cycle and NAND
address count is wrong.

Using memcpy() instead of the IO memcpy functions fixes this, but
depends on correct word alignment of the buffer and length has to
be a multiple of four, otherwise it might issue byte accesses and
possibly break 16 bit NAND access (cf arch/arm/lib/copy_template.S).

Memcpy variants seem to be the wrong approach here, since the
NAND controller doesn't make the NAND appear as truely randomly
accessible memory (as opposed to the DRAM controller which does
exactly that).

So, my proposal is to use 32 bit IO read/write (and let SMC
map it to 8 bit or 16 bit NAND accesses) and account for
length % 4 > 0 with two additional IO read/writes.
