Yes, I understand, but in second case (without ONFI) it has
detected 4GiB (well, 3GiB remaining after partitioning by the kernel) size.
Moreover, I'm confused a little bit with the fact that with ONFI detection
enabled the driver detects incorrect amount of blocks per lun (4096 instead of 8192)
which in fact results on the total size of the device. According to the datasheet, the
device has two planes 4K blocks each, located on one LUN.
So I should argue with you that the problem is within the driver...

So, what nanddump gave me:
$nanddump --oob --bb=dumpbad /dev/mtd5
ECC failed: 0
ECC corrected: 0
Number of bad blocks: 8
Number of bbt blocks: 0
Not printing binary garbage to tty. Use '-a'
or '--forcebinary' to override.
(keys --oob/--bb used because it complained about deprecated params)

Also, I tried both, nand scub (in barebox, as I'm using it) as well as nand -d (deregister a bad block aware device) without luck.


Thanks in advance,
