[PATCH/RFC v3 1/3] Shared BCH ECC library

Wed Mar 9 12:50:47 EST 2011


Hello,

The first patch of this series contains a new generic BCH ECC library.

This library can be used to provide software BCH correction on NAND devices
(see 2nd and 3rd patch), as well as error correction for hybrid hardware BCH
engines.

This version v3
- improves Kconfig help description as suggested by Artem Bityutskiy
- documents the public domain origin of a parity computation code snippet

Could you please review and comment ?
Thanks,

Ivan

Regarding this first patch:

This is a new software BCH encoding/decoding library, similar to the shared
Reed-Solomon library.

Binary BCH (Bose-Chaudhuri-Hocquenghem) codes are widely used to correct
errors in NAND flash devices requiring more than 1-bit ecc correction; they
are generally better suited for NAND flash than RS codes because NAND bit
errors do not occur in bursts. Latest SLC NAND devices typically require at
least 4-bit ecc protection per 512 bytes block.

This library provides software encoding/decoding, but may also be used with
ASIC/SoC hardware BCH engines to perform error correction. It is being
currently used for this purpose on an OMAP3630 board (4bit/8bit HW BCH). It
has also been used to decode raw dumps of NAND devices with on-die BCH ecc
engines (e.g. Micron 4bit ecc SLC devices).

Latest NAND devices (including SLC) can exhibit high error rates (typically
a dozen or more bitflips per hour during stress tests); in order to
minimize the performance impact of error correction, this library
implements recently developed algorithms for fast polynomial root finding
(see bch.c header for details) instead of the traditional exhaustive Chien
root search; a few performance figures are provided below:

Platform: arm926ejs @ 468 MHz, 32 kiB icache, 16 kiB dcache
BCH ecc : 4-bit per 512 bytes

Encoding average throughput: 250 Mbits/s

Error correction time (compared with Chien search):

        average   worst      average (Chien)  worst (Chien)
----------------------------------------------------------
1 bit    8.5 us   11 us         200 us           383 us
2 bit    9.7 us   12.5 us       477 us           728 us
3 bit   18.1 us   20.6 us       758 us          1010 us
4 bit   19.5 us   23 us        1028 us          1280 us

In the above figures, "worst" is meant in terms of error pattern, not in
terms of cache miss / page faults effects (not taken into account here).

The library has been extensively tested on the following platforms: x86,
x86_64, arm926ejs, omap3630, qemu-ppc64, qemu-mips.

+ *
+ * Description:
+ *
+ * This library provides runtime configurable encoding/decoding of binary
+ * Bose-Chaudhuri-Hocquenghem (BCH) codes.
+ *
+ * Call init_bch to get a pointer to a newly allocated bch_control structure for
+ * the given m (Galois field order), t (error correction capability) and
+ * (optional) primitive polynomial parameters.
+ *
+ * Call encode_bch to compute and store ecc parity bytes to a given buffer.
+ * Call decode_bch to detect and locate errors in received data.
+ *
+ * On systems supporting hw BCH features, intermediate results may be provided
+ * to decode_bch in order to skip certain steps. See decode_bch() documentation
+ * for details.
+ *
+ * Option CONFIG_BCH_CONST_PARAMS can be used to force fixed values of
+ * parameters m and t; thus allowing extra compiler optimizations and providing
+ * better (up to 2x) encoding performance. Using this option makes sense when
+ * (m,t) are fixed and known in advance, e.g. when using BCH error correction
+ * on a particular NAND flash device.
+ *
+ * Algorithmic details:
+ *
+ * Encoding is performed by processing 32 input bits in parallel, using 4
+ * remainder lookup tables.
+ *
+ * The final stage of decoding involves the following internal steps:
+ * a. Syndrome computation
+ * b. Error locator polynomial computation using Berlekamp-Massey algorithm
+ * c. Error locator root finding (by far the most expensive step)
+ *
+ * In this implementation, step c is not performed using the usual Chien search.
+ * Instead, an alternative approach described in [1] is used. It consists in
+ * factoring the error locator polynomial using the Berlekamp Trace algorithm
+ * (BTA) down to a certain degree (4), after which ad hoc low-degree polynomial
+ * solving techniques [2] are used. The resulting algorithm, called BTZ, yields
+ * much better performance than Chien search for usual (m,t) values (typically
+ * m >= 13, t < 32, see [1]).
