Hi, Bryan

Thanks for doing such test. see my comment below:

seems some page are really damaged or the error correction code has bugs.

I don't find the 3.4 kernel noted the PMECC errors in your attached log.

no. I don't think so. The PMECC part of patch is the almost same. Only 
some minor change are made in v3.4 for back port.

This is more possible. I means maybe 3.4 kernel doesn't check some area 
3.7-rc8 checked.

I tested in two version of kernel my side:
  1. https://github.com/linux4sam/linux-at91/commits/at91-3.4-trunk_merge
           fcf88e036fce6c382510874b1dc90e9b49608ccf (Merge branch 
'at91-3.4-trunk/v3.4.x_gmac' into at91-3.4-trunk_merge)
  2. v3.7-rc8 plus the patch I sent to you to enable PMECC in dtsi.

I cannot reproduce the situation you met In my side. Both can boot the 
ubi rootfs system correctly.

So the your case is rare.

To find out why those two kernel work differently, could you help me to do:

    1. use u-boot "nand read" to do some bisect in nand flash offset, 
which we can narrow down the page that has uncorrectable pmecc errors.

    2. use u-boot "nand dump offset" to show the raw data of that page. 
please send me the log. I can generate the same page from your log. and 
check whether it can be corrected in my side.

    3. in 3.4 kernel, use dd command to read that page, to see any 
uncorrectable pmecc error happen.
          if no error happens in 3.4, then it means it correct that 
v3.7-rc8 cannot. There mush be something different in 3.4 kernel pmecc 
between mainline.
          if error happens, that means 3.4 kernel skips those area but 
3.7-rc8 does not. So I suspect it maybe caused by some code of UBI part 
changes.

Josh Wu
