This representation should be enforced even for simple controllers supporting only one chip. The ECC strength and ECC step size properties define the user desires in terms of correction capability of a controller. Together, they request the ECC engine to correct {strength} bit errors per {size} bytes. The interpretation of these parameters is implementation-defined, so not all implementations must support all possible combinations. However, implementations are encouraged to further specify the value(s) they support. properties: $nodename: pattern: "^nand-controller(@.*)?"

There are basically three possibilities: 1/ The ECC engine is part of the NAND controller, in this case the phandle should reference the parent node. 2/ The ECC engine is part of the NAND part (on-die), in this case the phandle should reference the node itself. 3/ The ECC engine is external, in this case the phandle should reference the specific ECC engine node. nand-use-soft-ecc-engine: type: boolean description: Use a software ECC engine. nand-no-ecc-engine: type: boolean description: Do not use any ECC correction. nand-ecc-placement: allOf: - $ref: /schemas/types.yaml#/definitions/string - enum: [ oob, interleaved ] description: Location of the ECC bytes. This location is unknown by default but can be explicitly set to "oob", if all ECC bytes are known to be stored in the OOB area, or "interleaved" if ECC bytes will be interleaved with regular data in the main area. nand-ecc-algo: description: Desired ECC algorithm. $ref: /schemas/types.yaml#/definitions/string enum: [hamming, bch, rs] nand-bus-width: description: Bus width to the NAND chip $ref: /schemas/types.yaml#/definitions/uint32 enum: [8, 16] default: 8 nand-on-flash-bbt: $ref: /schemas/types.yaml#/definitions/flag description: With this property, the OS will search the device for a Bad Block Table (BBT). If not found, it will create one, reserve a few blocks at the end of the device to store it and update it as the device ages. Otherwise, the out-of-band area of a few pages of all the blocks will be scanned at boot time to find Bad Block Markers (BBM). These markers will help to build a volatile BBT in RAM. nand-ecc-strength: description: Maximum number of bits that can be corrected per ECC step. $ref: /schemas/types.yaml#/definitions/uint32 minimum: 1 nand-ecc-step-size: description: Number of data bytes covered by a single ECC step. $ref: /schemas/types.yaml#/definitions/uint32 minimum: 1 nand-ecc-maximize: $ref: /schemas/types.yaml#/definitions/flag description: Whether or not the ECC strength should be maximized. The maximum ECC strength is both controller and chip dependent. The ECC engine has to select the ECC config providing the best strength and taking the OOB area size constraint into account. This is particularly useful when only the in-band area is used by the upper layers, and you want to make your NAND as reliable as possible. nand-is-boot-medium: $ref: /schemas/types.yaml#/definitions/flag description: Whether or not the NAND chip is a boot medium. Drivers might use this information to select ECC algorithms supported by the boot ROM or similar restrictions. nand-rb: $ref: /schemas/types.yaml#/definitions/uint32-array description: Contains the native Ready/Busy IDs. rb-gpios: description: Contains one or more GPIO descriptor (the numper of descriptor depends on the number of R/B pins exposed by the flash) for the Ready/Busy pins. Active state refers to the NAND ready state and should be set to GPIOD_ACTIVE_HIGH unless the signal is inverted. required: - reg required: - "#address-cells" - "#size-cells" additionalProperties: true examples: - | nand-controller { #address-cells = <1>; #size-cells = <0>; /* controller specific properties */ nand@0 { reg = <0>; nand-use-soft-ecc-engine; nand-ecc-algo = "bch"; /* controller specific properties */ }; };
