[PATCH v3 13/16] mtd/docg3: add ECC correction code

Robert Jarzmik robert.jarzmik at free.fr
Sat Nov 19 10:02:55 EST 2011


Credit for discovering the BCH algorith parameters, and bit
reversing algorithm is to be give to Mike Dunn and Ivan
Djelic.

The BCH correction code relied upon the BCH library, where
all data and ECC is bit-reversed. The BCH library works
correctly when each input byte is bit-reversed, and
accordingly ECC output is also bit-reversed.
