NAND flash replacement for P20x0 (internal or HW ECC required)

We are looking to replace a Samsung K9K8G08U0D NAND on our custom P2010 board (running linux 2.6.35).

  • We need the same footprint as K9K8G08U0D
  • We need to boot from NAND (which we currently do).
  • SW ECC is likely not an option due to performance concerns.

We initially hoped to use Micron MT29F8G08ABABA, but seeing that it:

  1. has 4K page size (only 512 and 2K is supported by eLBC - 4K support seems experimental?) and
  2. requires 4-bit ECC (eLBC only has 1-bit ECC) and thus would need SW ECC,

it is probably not an option.

We are now investigating Micron MT29F4G08ABADA, with 2K page size.

It still requires 4-bit ECC, but has internal/on-die ECC. Has anyone been successful using P20x0 with it?

I would very much like to know:

  1. What NAND flashes have successfully been used in various P20x0 (linux) projects.
  2. If any of the Micron MT29F4G08.. are supported by P2010.

Thank you!

The P2020 eLBC supports disabling ECC generation. Find the BR_DECC_SHIFT in u-boot configuration file.

Usually u-boot provides NAND Flash configuration on the board.

Change u-boot configuration using u-boot source code.

U-boot configuration file is located in the u-boot source folder: /include/configs. This folder contains the .h files for the different boards.

See documentation on the following page:

http://git.denx.de/?p=u-boot.git;a=blob_plain;f=README;hb=HEAD

and

http://www.denx.de/wiki/view/DULG/UBoot

See NAND Flash configuration setting of the u-boot.

Pavel, thank you for your reply. U-boot however does not currently support on-die/internal ECC.

Patches exist for on-die ECC, e.g.

patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/linux-mtd/list/?submitter=8164

I would very much like to know if it is possible to use on-die/internal ECC with the eLBC NAND controller?
