v2 cover mtd: vf610_nfc: various fixes and improvements

This patchset contains various improvements and enhancements to the NAND flash controller found on Vybrid (vf610) and other Freescale platforms. It's a merge and follow up of two patchset sent earlier:
- mtd: vf610_nfc: remove caching of page in page buffer
http://lists.denx.de/pipermail/u-boot/2015-April/209817.html
- mtd: vf610_nfc: use in-band bad block table
http://lists.denx.de/pipermail/u-boot/2015-April/209889.html

The patch "mtd: vf610_nfc: support subpage write" has been dropped as discussed. As a further consequence, this patchset includes a patch which changes the behaviour of the SEQIN command (patch 3).

- Patch 1 to 3 fix non-critical issues or undesirable behavior.
- Patch 4 enhances the driver with a page read function with reads the OOB area only and also simplifies vf610_nfc_read_buf.
- Patch 5 switches to in-band bad block table which is a prerequisit for 32-error correction (patch 7) on 64 byte OOB.
- Patch 6 converts the driver to be configureable through Kconfig.
- Patch 7 enhances driver configuration for 32-error correction.
- Patch 8 allows reading the ONFI parameter page.

The changes between 1-4 has been discussed on the mailinglist lately.

Stefan Agner (8):
mtd: vf610_nfc: remove caching of page in buffer
mtd: vf610_nfc: remove read on SEQIN
mtd: vf610_nfc: allow bitflips in an empty page
mtd: vf610_nfc: implement OOB only read
mtd: vf610_nfc: use in-band bad block table
mtd: vf610_nfc: add Freescale NFC controller configs to Kconfig
mtd: vf610_nfc: add 32-error correction option for HW ECC
mtd: vf610_nfc: enable ONFI detection

PATCH v2 1/8 mtd: vf610_nfc: remove caching of page in buffer

To improve performance we remember the current page in the buffer and avoid reading it twice. This implicit page cache increases complexity while does not increase performance in real world cases. This patch removes that feature.

PATCH v2 2/8 mtd: vf610_nfc: remove read on SEQIN

In reply to Stefan Agner

Since we do not support sub-page writes anyway, reading the page back to the controller on SEQIN command is not required. Remove the page read on SEQIN.

However, the column/page values relevant to the SEQIN command, hence set the column/row address on SEQIN command.

---
This improved the write performance quite nicely. The nand write command improves from 2.9MiB/s to 3.5MiB/s. A ubi write of a UBIFS image which is around 100MiB improves from 34.5s to 27.1s. Measured on a Colibri VF61 (512MiB Macronix NAND).

Allow bit flips in a empty page up to half of the recoverable bits (strength / 2).

PATCH v2 4/8 mtd: vf610_nfc: implement OOB only read

In reply to Stefan Agner

Implement read of OOB area only. When using column and sector size properties, only parts of the page can be read. However, this works only when hardware ECC is disabled, otherwise the ECC engine would ruin the data in the buffer. To allow OOB only reads, three points had to be addressed:
- Set ECC mode per command.
- Handle NAND_CMD_READOOB seperate. Make sure column and sector size is correctly set up, while disabling ECC.
- Now, the OOB data end up at the beginning of the buffer. Remove the special handling of OOB (spareonly).

Especially bad block scans benefit from this change. On a 512MiB SLC NAND device, the bad block scan took 1.5s less than before.

PATCH v2 5/8 mtd: vf610_nfc: use in-band bad block table

In reply to Stefan Agner

Use in-band bad block table (NAND_BBT_NO_OOB) which allows to use the full OOB for hardare ECC purposes. Since there is no ECC correction on the OOB it is also safer to use in-band area to store the bad block table marker.

PATCH v2 7/8 mtd: vf610_nfc: add 32-error correction option for HW ECC

In reply to Stefan Agner

Add option to choose between current 24-error correction and 32-error correction through Kconfig. 32-error correction allow to use NAND chips which require up to 8-bit error correction per 512 byte (when using 2K pages).

PATCH v2 8/8 mtd: vf610_nfc: enable ONFI detection

In reply to Stefan Agner

This changes enable ONFI detection. The Read ID command now allows one address byte which is needed for ONFI detection. To read the ONFI parameter page, the NAND_CMD_PARAM need to be supported. The CMD code enables one command and one address byte along with reading data from flash using R/B#, as specified by ONFI.

Doesn't this driver run on some big-endian targets, in which case you wouldn't want to reverse? I think you should instead be using in_be32() and then extracting the byte within the word after it's been put into cpu byte order.

Why is the byte order different here? I guess you've been writing data backwards onto the NAND chip? Won't that mess up factory bad block markers?

Yes agreed, big endian platforms shouldn't be left out here, will fix that.

Yes, the data end up backward in the NAND chip. I asked that myself to, however, I have devices which definitely come with "naturally" looking bad blocks. It seems that the whole pages are actually set to 0x00 on those chips, although this is not specified in the data sheet. I will try to figure out more...
