I didn't know. I used what u-boot offers, which works for me without
vendor tools -- and dare I say I trust u-boot tools more than vendor
tools?.
The default environment even has the rule to reflash from any
u-boot.nand you manage to put into RAM. The only issue is that
u-boot.nand, as created, marks good blocks as bad by prefilling with
zeores.
