nand: reinstate lazy bad block scanning

2012-02-28T20:03:39+00:00

commit 2a8e0fc8b3dc31a3c571e439fbf04b882c8986be ("nand: Merge changes
from Linux nand driver") accidentally reverted commit
13f0fd94e3cae6f8a0d9fba5d367e311edc8ebde ("NAND: Scan bad blocks
lazily.").

Reinstate the change, as amended by commit
ff49ea8977b56916edd5b1766d9939010e30b181 ("NAND: Mark the BBT as scanned
prior to calling scan_bbt.").

Revert "nand: make 1-bit software ECC configurable"

2012-02-28T20:03:39+00:00

This reverts commit 4fee6c2f295f932b8febdc7ce8731ba045695fa5.

It breaks boards that currently rely on soft-ecc, as pointed out here:
http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/140872/

The reverted patch should be resubmitted with documentation, and with the
CONFIG_MTD_ECC_SOFT selected from every board that needs it.  We could
start by looking at what NAND driver the board selects, and whether
that driver ever asks for soft ECC.

linkage.h: move from blackfin to common includes

2012-02-12T20:03:26+00:00

1. Add linkage.h support from blackfin to common include,
   which is a reduced version from Linux.
2. Add architecture part support of linkage.h into blackfin
3. Fix include path of in blackfin related to linkage.h
   due to header file movement.

nand: make 1-bit software ECC configurable

2012-01-26T22:09:02+00:00

The software ECC algorithm is not necessary when hardware ECC
is available and can be left out for a smaller image size.
Enable with CONFIG_MTD_ECC_SOFT.

nand: Merge BCH code from Linux nand driver

2012-01-26T22:09:02+00:00

[backport from linux commit 02f8c6aee8df3cdc935e9bdd4f2d020306035dbe]

This patch merges the BCH ECC algorithm from the 3.0 Linux kernel.
This enables U-Boot to support modern NAND flash chips that
require more than 1-bit of ECC in software.

Add isblank

2011-10-17T20:25:34+00:00

Existing ctype checks are implemented using a 256 byte lookup table,
allowing each character to be in any of 8 character classes. Since there
are 8 existing character classes without the blank class, I implemented
isblank without using the lookup table.  Since there are only two blank
characters - tab and space - this is a more reasonable approach than
doubling the size of the lookup table to accommodate one more class.
