Hi Arseniy,

Sorry, I am busy on other things and will try it on AXG platform in next week.

This fixes read/write functionality. New command sequences were ported
from old vendor's driver. Without this patch driver works unstable. This
change is tested with 'nanddump'/'nandwrite' utilities and mounting
JFFS2 filesystem on AXG family (A113X SoC).

it already calls meson_nfc_queue_rb() in meson_nfc_rw_cmd_prepare_and_execute(). Could you implements this in meson_nfc_queue_rb()? and we can use the irq method.
also without Ready/Busy pin, the meson_nfc_queue_rb() should change like below:
......
#define NFC_CMD_RB_INT ((0xb << 10) | BIT(18))

Sorry, I can see this define as (and it is used in the driver):
#define NFC_CMD_RB_INT BIT(14)

in drivers/mtd/nand/raw/meson_nand.c

Which one is correct ?

we need to modify the define 'NFC_CMD_RB_INT' as ((0xb << 10) | BIT(18)).


Ok, NFC_CMD_RB_INT - it is "Ready/Busy_Interrupt" ? You suppose that currently it is
defined incorrectly, so irq waiting does not work?

Previous defined BIT(14) is for having the external Ready/Busy pin of the NAND device connected to the controller. the new define is for reading status by sending read status(70H) command and read status from the data bus(checking the IO6). the both can work on AXG soc.
when the controller RB command is sent, the controller automatically checks the level of external Ready/Busy pin or the data bus(IO6) periodicity. and generate the irq signal if status is ready.

Hello Liang!

I've got small questions to clarify Your comment. You suggest two thing IIUC:

1) Send NAND_CMD_READ0 from 'meson_nfc_queue_rb()'. This means that extra argument is needed to
'meson_nfc_queue_rb()' which shows that read operation is going to be performed. We can't send
NAND_CMD_READ0 for write operation?

it is ok to me. but does NAND_CMD_READ0 really need to send in the controller driver? i don't find the other controller drivers have to send it for the old vendor NAND device.

Hm, I found this command in the old driver. For example without it I get the following error:

# nanddump -c -s 0 -l 2048 /dev/mtd0 --oob
ECC failed: 3975
ECC corrected: 47
Number of bad blocks: 10
Number of bbt blocks: 0
Block size 131072, page size 2048, OOB size 64
Dumping data starting at 0x00000000 and ending at 0x00000800...

But data is not corrupted and seems ok. With this extra NAND_CMD_READ0 everything is ok - data is still valid and
there are no ECC errors.



2) About code and define above, I tried to replace current body of 'meson_nfc_queue_rb()', but it
didn't work. May be I did it wrong, because what to do with 'meson_nfc_wait_dev_ready()' and it's
call sites? It must be removed? Could You please explain Your idea in more details? I'm asking You
because I don't have doc for this NAND controller, so it is very difficult to me to add valid
logic to this driver without any references

Could you please try the following? i have tested it on another SOC (not axg).

static int meson_nfc_queue_rb(struct meson_nfc *nfc, int timeout_ms)
{
u32 cmd, cfg;
int ret = 0;

meson_nfc_cmd_idle(nfc, nfc->timing.twb);
meson_nfc_drain_cmd(nfc);
meson_nfc_wait_cmd_finish(nfc, CMD_FIFO_EMPTY_TIMEOUT);

cfg = readl(nfc->reg_base + NFC_REG_CFG);
cfg |= NFC_RB_IRQ_EN;
writel(cfg, nfc->reg_base + NFC_REG_CFG);

reinit_completion(&nfc->completion);

meson_nfc_cmd_idle(nfc, 0);
cmd = nfc->param.chip_select | NFC_CMD_CLE | NAND_CMD_STATUS;
writel(cmd, nfc->reg_base + NFC_REG_CMD);
meson_nfc_cmd_idle(nfc, 5);
cmd = NFC_CMD_RB | NFC_CMD_RB_INT
| nfc->param.chip_select | nfc->timing.tbers_max;
writel(cmd, nfc->reg_base + NFC_REG_CMD);
meson_nfc_drain_cmd(nfc);

ret = wait_for_completion_timeout(&nfc->completion,
msecs_to_jiffies(timeout_ms));
if (ret == 0)
ret = -1;

writel(1 << 31, nfc->reg_base + NFC_REG_CMD);

return ret;
}

Ok! Thanks, I'll try it!

Thanks, Arseniy

Hello @Liang, I tried this code, seems with this implementation NAND driver works very slow,
here is for example output buring bad blocks lookup:

[ 2.060835] Scanning device for bad blocks
[ 3.350085] Bad eraseblock 20 at 0x000000280000

[ 132.833318] modprobe (56) used greatest stack depth: 12672 bytes left


Take a look at timeouts. I used Your variant of 'meson_nfc_queue_rb()' from above,
#define NFC_CMD_RB_INT is ((0xb << 10) | BIT(18)). I tested it with my ports of
of dev ready calls from the old vendor's driver.

Thanks, Arseniy



also we need to check and return the return value for meson_nfc_queue_rb() in meson_nfc_rw_cmd_prepare_and_execute() and meson_nfc_write_page_sub().


May be I can send v2 patchset for review without this change, as v2 already includes udpate for OOB
handling which is I think more critical?


sure, it is up to you. it is more important, thanks again.

Thanks, Arseniy


Thanks for reply! I'll try this code! One more question about OOB processing in this
driver (as You are author of it):

OOB size is 64 bytes, but for example if I have 1K ECC, 2 bytes user bytes and 14
bytes for ECC code for each 1K. In this case I have access to only 32 bytes of OOB:
2 x (2 user bytes + 14 ECC bytes). Correct me if i'm wrong, but rest of OOB (next
32 bytes) become unavailable (in both raw and ECC modes) ?

Thanks, Arseniy
