Hi Linus, Thanks for merging the patches to u-boot. We actually had something similar here locally but just didn't get the chance to upstream yet. We will review and compare your patches to ours and get back to you.

Ah, excellent, I guess you guys know the stuff better than me so I prefer if your patches are used. Do you even have U-Boot working on BCMBCA? I didn't get the NAND to detect properly yet despite all the backported patches. :/ Yours, Linus Walleij

And your patches works too after fixing two Issues that I will comment on the specific patch. You will need to enable the NAND related configurations and the nand dts node. You can use existing dts node to set the specific ecc level, oob size and ecc step size. Or use the new automatically detection from the strap property brcm,nand-ecc-use-strap that I upstreamed to linux. What SoC do you use? > Yours, > Linus Walleij

I was planning to used the strap, which is ... what we should have been doing all the time. Oh well, no turning back time I guess. Maybe we can fix a lot of DTS:es to use the strap though? > What SoC do you use? This is on BCM6846. Thanks William! Linus

Let me know if it still does not work after dts fix. Yes it work just fine! I dropped CONFIG_SYS_NAND_ONFI_DETECTION and then it detects and works fine on Genexis XG6846B, see here for a full session where I do some ubifs inspection: https://dflund.se/~triad/krad/genexis-xg6846b/ubi-info.txt Yours, Linus Walleij

These are a number of assorted upstream Linux fixes to the BRCMNAND driver that I have backported in an attempt to get BRCMBCA working with U-Boot (still not there). This patch set lowers the hamming distance between the Linux and U-Boot drivers a bit as well, while we deviate quite a bit it is still possible to bring fixes over thanks to exercises like this. The set tries to prepare the ground for the BCMBCA driver which I have a port of which is however not yet working as it should. This is why the read data callback is included. These patches seem to work fine for me with my devices but I know the maintainers have some nice test farms so try to put these to test and see if we can merge them. I bet the Broadcom folks has this on their TODO list anyway.
