There is no point in having two distinct entries, merge them and rename the symbol for more clarity: MTD_NAND_ECC_SW_BCH Signed-off-by: Miquel Raynal <miquel.raynal@bootlin.com>
2018-10-03mtd: rawnand: Pass a nand_chip object to ecc->correct()Boris Brezillon
Let's make the raw NAND API consistent by patching all helpers and hooks to take a nand_chip object instead of an mtd_info one. Now is ecc->correct()'s turn. Signed-off-by: Boris Brezillon <boris.brezillon@bootlin.com> Signed-off-by: Miquel Raynal <miquel.raynal@bootlin.com>

2016-03-07mtd: nand: simplify nand_bch_init() usageBoris BREZILLON
nand_bch_init() requires several arguments which could directly be deduced from the mtd device. Get rid of those useless parameters. nand_bch_init() is also requiring the caller to provide a proper eccbytes value, while this value could be deduced from the ecc.size and ecc.strength value. Fallback to eccbytes calculation when it is set to 0. Signed-off-by: Boris Brezillon <boris.brezillon@free-electrons.com> Signed-off-by: Brian Norris <computersforpeace@gmail.com>
2016-01-06mtd: nand: return consistent error codes in ecc.correct() implementationsBoris BREZILLON
The error code returned by the ecc.correct() are not consistent over the all implementations. Document the expected behavior in include/linux/mtd/nand.h and fix offending implementations. [Brian: this looks like a bugfix for the ECC reporting in the bf5xx_nand driver, but we haven't seen any testing results for it] Signed-off-by: Boris Brezillon <boris.brezillon@free-electrons.com> Tested-by: Franklin S Cooper Jr. <fcooper@ti.com> Signed-off-by: Brian Norris <computersforpeace@gmail.com>
2011-03-11mtd: nand: add software BCH ECC supportIvan Djelic
This patch adds software BCH ECC support to mtd, in order to handle recent NAND device ecc requirements (4 bits or more). It does so by adding a new ecc mode (NAND_ECC_SOFT_BCH) for use by board drivers, and a new Kconfig option to enable BCH support. It relies on the generic BCH library introduced in a previous patch. When a board driver uses mode NAND_ECC_SOFT_BCH, it should also set fields chip->ecc.size and chip->ecc.bytes to select BCH ecc data size and required error correction capability. See nand_bch_init() documentation for details. It has been tested on the following platforms using mtd-utils, UBI and UBIFS: x86 (with nandsim), arm926ejs.
