[U-Boot] [PATCH 1/4] mtd: nand: fsmc: Add BCH4 SW ECC support for SPEAr600

Stefan Roese sr at denx.de
Wed Sep 2 11:10:57 CEST 2015


This patch adds support for 4-bit ECC BCH4 for the SPEAr600 SoC. This can
be used by boards equipped with a NAND chip that requires 4-bit ECC strength.
The SPEAr600 HW ECC only supports 1-bit ECC strength.

To enable SW BCH4, you need to specify this in your config header:

And use the command "nandecc bch4" to select this ECC scheme upon runtime.

Tested on SPEAr600 x600 board.
