This patch adds new CONFIG_NAND_OMAP_ECCSCHEME, replacing other distributed
CONFIG_xx used for selecting NAND ecc-schemes.
This patch aims at solving following issues.
1) Currently ecc-scheme is tied to SoC platform, which prevents user to select
other ecc-schemes also supported in hardware. like;
- most of OMAP3 SoC platforms use only 1-bit Hamming ecc-scheme, inspite
the fact that they can use higher ecc-schemes like 8-bit ecc-schemes with
software based error detection (OMAP_ECC_BCH4_CODE_HW_DETECTION_SW).
- most of AM33xx SoC plaforms use 8-bit BCH ecc-scheme for now, but hardware
supports BCH16 ecc-scheme also.
2) Different platforms use different CONFIG_xx to select ecc-schemes, which
adds confusion for user while migrating platforms.
- *CONFIG_NAND_OMAP_ELM* which enables ELM hardware engine, selects only
8-bit BCH ecc-scheme with h/w based error-correction (OMAP_ECC_BCH8_CODE_HW)
whereas ELM hardware engine supports other ecc-schemes also like; BCH4,
and BCH16 (in future).
- *CONFIG_NAND_OMAP_BCH8* selects 8-bit BCH ecc-scheme with s/w based error
correction (OMAP_ECC_BCH8_CODE_HW_DETECTION_SW).
- *CONFIG_SPL_NAND_SOFTECC* selects 1-bit Hamming ecc-scheme using s/w library
Thus adding new *CONFIG_NAND_OMAP_ECCSCHEME* de-couples ecc-scheme dependency
on SoC platform and NAND driver. And user can select ecc-scheme independently
foreach board.
However, selection some hardware based ecc-schemes (OMAP_ECC_BCHx_CODE_HW) still
depends on presence of ELM hardware engine on SoC. (Refer doc/README.nand)

BCH8_ECC scheme implemented in omap_gpmc.c driver has following favours
+-----------------------------------+-----------------+-----------------+
|ECC Scheme | ECC Calculation | Error Detection |
+-----------------------------------+-----------------+-----------------+
|OMAP_ECC_BCH8_CODE_HW |GPMC |ELM H/W engine |
|OMAP_ECC_BCH8_CODE_HW_DETECTION_SW |GPMC |S/W BCH library |
+-----------------------------------+-----------------+-----------------+
Current implementation limits the BCH8_CODE_HW only for AM33xx device family.
(using CONFIG_AM33XX). However, other SoC families (like TI81xx) also have
ELM hardware module, and can support ECC error detection using ELM.
This patch
- removes CONFIG_AM33xx
Thus this driver can be reused by all devices having ELM h/w engine.
- adds omap_select_ecc_scheme()
A common function to handle ecc-scheme related configurations. This
can be used both during device-probe and via user-space u-boot commads
to change ecc-scheme. During device probe ecc-scheme is selected based
on CONFIG_NAND_OMAP_ELM or CONFIG_NAND_OMAP_BCH8
- enables CONFIG_BCH
S/W library (lib/bch.c) required by OMAP_ECC_BCHx_CODE_HW_DETECTION_SW
is enabled by CONFIG_BCH.
- enables CONFIG_SYS_NAND_ONFI_DETECTION
for auto-detection of ONFI compliant NAND devices
- updates following README doc

ELM hardware engine which is used for ECC error detection, is present on all
latest OMAP SoC (like OMAP4xxx, OMAP5xxx, DRA7xxx, AM33xx, AM43xx). Thus ELM
driver should be moved to common drivers/mtd/nand/ folder so that all SoC
having on-chip ELM hardware engine can re-use it.
This patch has following changes:
- mv arch/arm/include/asm/arch-am33xx/elm.h arch/arm/include/asm/omap_elm.h
- mv arch/arm/cpu/armv7/am33xx/elm.c drivers/mtd/nand/omap_elm.c
- update Makefiles
- update #include <asm/elm.h>
- add CONFIG_NAND_OMAP_ELM to compile driver/mtd/nand/omap_elm.c
and include in all board configs using AM33xx SoC platform.

nand_ecclayout is present in mtd.h at Linux.
Move this structure to mtd.h to comply with Linux.
Also, increase the ecc placement locations to 640 to suport device having
writesize/oobsize of 8KB/640B. This means that the maximum oobsize has gone
up to 640 bytes and consequently the maximum ecc placement locations have
also gone up to 640.
Changes from Prabhabkar's version (squashed into one patch to preserve
bisectability):
- Added _LARGE to MTD_MAX_*_ENTRIES
This makes the names match current Linux source, and resolves
a conflict between
http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/280488/
and
http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/284513/
The former was posted first and is closer to matching Linux, but
unlike Linux it does not add _LARGE to the names. The second adds
_LARGE to one of the names, and depends on it in a subsequent patch
(http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/284512/).
- Made max oobfree/eccpos configurable, and used this on tricorder,
alpr, ASH405, T4160QDS, and T4240QDS (these boards failed to build
for me without doing so, due to a size increase).
On tricorder SPL, this saves 2576 bytes (and makes the SPL build
again) versus the new default of 640 eccpos and 32 oobfree, and
saves 336 bytes versus the old default of 128 eccpos and 8 oobfree.

A use for this is to read, modify, erase, and write an entire block as a
single unit, as a replacement for the biterr command. This way gives
more flexibility in that you can also test multiple bit errors, errors
in the ECC, etc.

This allows a driver to run code between nand_scan_ident() and
nand_scan_tail(), among other things. See the additions to
doc/README.nand for details.
To allow a gradual transition, Boards that don't set
CONFIG_SYS_NAND_SELF_INIT will still be initialized the old way, but
new drivers should not require this, and existing drivers should be
converted when convenient.

Add another nand write. variant, trimffs. This command will request of
nand_write_skip_bad() that all trailing all-0xff pages will be
dropped from eraseblocks when they are written to flash as-per the
reccommended behaviour of the UBI FAQ [1].
The function that implements this timming is the drop_ffs() function

Legacy NAND had been scheduled for removal. Any boards that use this
were already not building in the previous release due to an #error.
The disk on chip code in common/cmd_doc.c relies on legacy NAND,
and it has also been removed. There is newer disk on chip code
in drivers/mtd/nand; someone with access to hardware and sufficient
time and motivation can try to get that working, but for now disk
on chip is not supported.

Remove CONFIG_SYS_DAVINCI_BROKEN_ECC option. It's not just nasty;
it's also unused by any current boards, and doesn't even match the
main U-Boot distributions from TI (which use soft ECC, or 4-bit ECC
on newer chips that support it).
DaVinci GIT kernels since 2.6.24, and mainline Linux since 2.6.30,
match non-BROKEN code paths for 1-bit HW ECC. The BROKEN code paths
do seem to partially match what MontaVista/TI kernels (4.0/2.6.10,
and 5.0/2.6.18) do ... but only for small pages. Large page support
is really broken (and it's unclear just what software it was trying
to match!), and the ECC layout was making three more bytes available
for use by filesystem (or whatever) code.
Since this option itself seems broken, remove it. Add a comment
about the MV/TI compat issue, and the most straightforward way to
address it (should someone really need to solve it).

Legacy NAND is marked for feature removal after April 2009 (i.e. this
upcoming release). There are still several boards that reference it
(though many do so only for disk-on-chip support which has been silently
disabled for a while now). These boards will now fail to build
with #error, though the code is still there if the user removes #error.
The plan is to remove the code outright in the next release, along with
any board code that refers to it (such as board/esd/common/auto_update.c).
Also, remove the legacy NAND API description from README.nand.

This patch renames NAND_MAX_CHIPS to CONFIG_SYS_NAND_MAX_CHIPS and
changes the default from 8 to 1 for the legacy and the new MTD
NAND layer. This allows to remove all NAND_MAX_CHIPS definitions
in the board config files because none of the boards use multi
chip support (NAND_MAX_CHIPS > 1) so far. The bamboo and the DU440
define
#define NAND_MAX_CHIPS CONFIG_SYS_MAX_NAND_DEVICE
but that's bogus and did not work anyhow.

Based on original patch by Bernard Blackham <bernard@largestprime.net>
U-boot's HW ECC support for large page NAND on Davinci is completely
broken. Some kernels, such as the 2.6.10 one supported by
MontaVista for DaVinci, rely upon this broken behaviour as they
share the same code for ECCs. In the existing scheme, error
detection *might* work on large page, but error correction
definitely does not. Small page ECC correction works, but the
format is not compatible with the mainline git kernel.
This patch adds ECC code that matches what is currently in the
Davinci git repository (since NAND support was added in 2.6.24).
This makes the ECC and OOB layout written by u-boot compatible with
Linux for both small page and large page devices and fixes ECC
correction for large page devices.
The old behaviour can be restored by defining the macro
CFG_DAVINCI_BROKEN_ECC, which is undefined by default.
