Maybe I'm using it incorrectly but I can't get a 4 bit flipped
situation to happen.
I erased the paged so it's all 0xFF:
# flash_erase /dev/mtd0 0x8000000 1
Erasing 128 Kibyte @ 8000000 -- 100 % complete
# nanddump --bb=dumpbad -s 0x8000000 -l 1 -c -p /dev/mtd0
ECC failed: 0
ECC corrected: 6234
Number of bad blocks: 0
Number of bbt blocks: 0
Block size 131072, page size 2048, OOB size 64
Dumping data starting at 0x08000000 and ending at 0x08000001...
ECC: 3 corrected bitflip(s) at offset 0x08000000
0x08000000: ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff |................|
0x08000010: ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff |................|
0x08000020: ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff |................|
0x08000030: ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff |................|
0x08000040: ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff |................|
0x08000050: ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff |................|
0x08000060: ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff |................|
Then used nandflipbits to flip a bunch of bits in the first byte and
then a few other bytes:
# nanddump --bb=dumpbad -s 0x8000000 -l 1 -c -p /dev/mtd0
ECC failed: 0
ECC corrected: 6246
Number of bad blocks: 0
Number of bbt blocks: 0
Block size 131072, page size 2048, OOB size 64
Dumping data starting at 0x08000000 and ending at 0x08000001...
ECC: 3 corrected bitflip(s) at offset 0x08000000
0x08000000: f0 ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff |................|
0x08000010: eb ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff |................|
0x08000020: ef ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff |................|
0x08000030: ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff |................|
0x08000040: ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff |................|
0x08000050: ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff |................|
0x08000060: ef ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff |................|
Anyhow,
I think we should probably return -EBADMSG if the 4 bit flips status
appears as nandbiterrs always complains that the data is wrong.
Cheers,
Daniel
