Good - thank you for the patches, didn't know about them.

Now, my flash is detected:

NAND device: Manufacturer ID: 0x2c, Chip ID: 0xdc (Micron NAND 512MiB
3,3V 8-bit), page size: 4096, OOB size: 128

However, when I read a partition, kernel (mxc_nand_correct_data_v2_v3())
says:

...
UnCorrectable RS-ECC Error
UnCorrectable RS-ECC Error
UnCorrectable RS-ECC Error
UnCorrectable RS-ECC Error
UnCorrectable RS-ECC Error
UnCorrectable RS-ECC Error

...

I'm using the following dt (on an Emtrion DIMM-MX53 board):

I guess I hit a documented open issue:

/* v3.2b: i.MX53 */
static const struct mxc_nand_devtype_data imx53_nand_devtype_data = {
        .preset = preset_v3,
        .send_cmd = send_cmd_v3,
        .send_addr = send_addr_v3,
        .send_page = send_page_v3,
        .send_read_id = send_read_id_v3,
        .get_dev_status = get_dev_status_v3,
        .check_int = check_int_v3,
        .irq_control = irq_control_v3,
        .get_ecc_status = get_ecc_status_v3,
        .ecclayout_512 = &nandv2_hw_eccoob_smallpage,
        .ecclayout_2k = &nandv2_hw_eccoob_largepage,
        .ecclayout_4k = &nandv2_hw_eccoob_smallpage, /* XXX: needs fix */

Using  ".ecclayout_4k = &nandv2_hw_eccoob_4k" also doesn't work. So is
there any hint how I can proceed from here? Any plans or hint regarding
the "XXX"?

Thanks in advance,

Roland
