This patch add support of iMX27 nand flash controller. This is based on
driver for imx31 nand flash controller.
OOB functionality is not fully working. As in mx31 controller, mx2 NFC
has a bug that swap two bytes between SPARE and MAIN buffer.
I used this driver for several months and no problems appear.
I was finally able to figure out the cause of this problem. There are two
parts to the patch. The first patch modifies the configuration file I
originally generated for the Atmel AT91SAM9G20 board and achieves the
following:
+++ Splits the reset-init handler into a reset-start handler for some of the
initial configuration activities and keeps the remainder in the reset-init
handler as was the case before. This was the real issue that was causing
the timing problems I identified before. This solution was confirmed with
an o-scope on actual target hardware.
+++ Adds a new instruction in the reset-start handler to disable fast memory
accesses in the reset-start handler. When the target jtag clock is started
out at 2 kHz during system clock initialization, memory writes (i.e.
register write to enable external reset pin -- basically to RSTC_MR) are
naturally slow and cause GDB keep-alive issues (refer to PATCH 2/2 for
additional fixes).
+++ Modifies the configuration file to use srst_only reset action. The
reset-start/reset-init handler split also now allows the correct behavior to
be used in the configuration file (previously had to use both SRST and TRST
even though only SRST is actually used and connected on the evaluation
board).
+++ Adds external NandFlash configuration support to take advantage of flash
driver added earlier. Doesn't fix any bugs but adds functionality that was
marked as TBD before and thrown in when I did other work on the
configuration file.

This second half of the patch is proposed to clean up some GDB keep alive
issues on arm7_9 targets that start up with very slow clocks. If an attempt
is made to write to key registers on the processor with a slow jtag speed,
GDB timeout warnings appear on the console (at least mine) when "reset halt"
or "reset init" commands are issued from the gdb client:

I added additional keep alive steps in areas that troubleshooting revealed
were causing problems. I only did this however for non-fast write memory
accesses. I don't think most people would be using fast memory accesses to
write to memory when the jtag and system clocks are slow anyway.
If you disagree with my feeling, think there is a more elegant way to handle
the problem, or think the patch will cause other unforeseen problems with
other targets, let me know. As you can see below, the patch does eliminate
the problem on my development station and I suspect that it will benefit
others.

tcl "puts" didn't work because the logging code sensored strings
that did not include a '\n'. The correct thing is to sensor
empty strings, which are used to keep gdb connection alive.
The tcl "puts" code broke apart strings which do contain '\n' in
order to implement the -nonewline argument, which is how it
got hurt by the bug in log.c

Page reads using hwecc4_infix layout segfaulted for check_bad_blocks because
the read assumed a valid data buffer, which check_bad_blocks does not use
(it only passes a 6 byte buffer for the start of OOB).
This version copes with undersized or missing data or oob buffers and uses
random read commands within the page to skip unwanted areas of data/OOB for
speed.
NOTE: Running check_bad_blocks with this layout will be reading infix
OOB locations, not manufacturer bad block markers. This means that if you
check blocks written in infix layout they will appear good, but manufacturer-
marked bad blocks may also appear good.
If you want to scan for manufactuer-marked bad blocks, you need to enable
raw_access before running check_bad_blocks, or use the non-infix layout.

In this first step I need to replace default flash read
with flash specific implementation.

- read() callback in struct flash_driver;
- proper initialization in every flash_driver instance.

During cfi_write(), head and tail of destination area
could be not aligned to bus_width.
Since write operation must be at bus_width size, source
buffer size is extended and buffer padded with current
values read from flash.
Force using bus_width to read current value from flash.
Do not use cfi_add_byte() anymore, to allow removing this
function later on.

NOR flash structure requires each access to be bus_width wide.

Signed-off-by: Antonio Borneo <borneo.antonio@gmail.com>
Since NOR flash devices does not handle "byte enable lanes",
each read/write access involves the whole "chip_width".
When multiple devices are in parallel, usually all chips are
enabled during each access.
All such cases are compatible with flash accesses at
"bus_width" size.
Access at "bus_width" size is mandatory for write access to
avoid transferring of garbage values to flash.
During read access the flash controller should take care,
and discard unneeded bytes. Anyway, it is good practice to
use "bus_width" size also for read.
Every memory access that does not respect "bus_width" size
is marked with a "FIXME" comment.

Review and simplify computation of bufferwsize.
Add comments about variables' meaning.
The same code is present 3 times in the file.
Current patch updates all the 3 instances.
Step 1)
Replace "switch(bank->chip_width) {...}".
Illegal values of bank->chip_width are already dropped.
For legal values, the code is equivalent to:
bufferwsize = buffersize / bank->chip_width;
Step 2)
The above code replacement plus the following line:
bufferwsize /= (bank->bus_width / bank->chip_width);
is merged in a single formula:
bufferwsize = (buffersize / bank->chip_width) /
(bank->bus_width / bank->chip_width);
and simplified as:
bufferwsize = buffersize / bank->bus_width;

Arguments chip_width and bus_width of command "flash bank" are
not fully checked.
While bus_width is later on redundantly checked in several other
parts (e.g. in cfi_command_val()) and generates run-time error,
chip_width is never checked, nor related to actual bus_width
value.
Added check to avoid:
- (chip_width == 0), that would mean no memory chip at all,
avoiding also division by zero e.g. in cfi_get_u8();
- (bus_width == 0), that would mean no bus at all;
- unsupported cases of chip_width or bus_width value not power
of 2;
- unsupported case of chip width wider than bus.

Hi,
This is my first post to the list. First, I would like to thank
everyone for their work on OpenOCD, it is a great tool to work with. I
have been using it to debug code on hardware for the Rockbox project
(www.rockbox.org).
The target that I primarily work with has a Spansion/Fujitsu NOR flash
(MBM29SL800TE). I attached a patch that adds support for this flash. I
hope it can be included in the main repository. If there is something
that needs to be changed with the patch before inclusion please let me
know.
