Trouble with NAND bad block table

[yensid]

Hi I'm working with a custom board based off of the P1010RDB.  We are booting from NAND and are using Micron MT29F8G08ABABA as a replacement NAND.  I can program the nand using jtag and uboot recognizes the NAND, after some minor changes. Uboot successfully boots to the command prompt.  During boot "Bad block table not found for chip 0  No space left to write bad block table" is displayed and I cannot write to the nand chip from u-boot to save the environment or program new u-boot. The chip is 1GByte and has a 512K block size, and 4K pagesize with 224byte oob size.

If I run nand bad the whole flash chip is reported as bad.

Has anyone had a similar experiance?  Any ideas what might be causing this?

Thanks for your help.

Code Changes to nand_ids.c

{"NAND 1GiB 3,3V 8-bit Custom",

0x38, 0, 1024, 0, LP_OPTIONS}

Code Changes nand_boot.c:

			/* Check Micron device */
			/* Check for 5 byte ID + Micron + read more 0x00 */
			else	if (id_data[0] == NAND_MFR_MICRON && id_data[4] != 0x00
				&& id_data[5] == 0x00
				&& id_data[6] == 0x00) {

				/* Calc pagesize */
				mtd->writesize = 1024 << (extid & 0x03);
				extid >>= 2;

				/* OOB is 218B/224B per 4KiB pagesize */
				mtd->oobsize = ((extid & 0x03) == 0x03 ? 218 :
						224) << (mtd->writesize >> 13);
				extid >>= 3;
				/* Blocksize is multiple of 64KiB */
				mtd->erasesize = mtd->writesize <<
					(extid & 0x03) << 6;
				/* All Micron have busw x8? */
				busw = 0;

			printf("Micron id_data[0] = 0x%X, id_data[1] = 0x%X\n", id_data[0], id_data[1]);
			printf("Micron mtd->erasesize (block):%d\n", mtd->erasesize);
			printf("Micron mtd->writesize (page):%d\n", mtd->writesize);
			printf("Micron mtd->oobsize:%d\n", mtd->oobsize);

}

I have a follow up question. NAND now fully works but on boot there is a message "fsl_ifc_read_buf beyond end of buffer (256 requested, 0 available)".  This message originates from fsl_ifc_nand.c. Do you know what the cause of this message is? 

Thanks again.

Please refer to the following Patch of P1010RDB-PB with MT29F16G08ABABAWP NAND.

/* old board P1010RDB uses 512M NAND */

Thanks Yiping! :smileyhappy: That solved the issue.
