mtd: pxa3xx_nand: issue with command time out

Hi Robert,
I am currently working with Marvell 98DX4251 switchchip with control and
management subsystem SOC based on ARMADA XP, and after upgrading kernel from
3.16.7 to 4.3, the nand controller command have a high chance of timing out.
I have tried adding my own debugs, which result in the problem going away,
and therefore lead me think it is a timing sensitive issue. After going
through
git commit history, I have tried reverting this patch:
"mtd: pxa3xx-nand: handle PIO in threaded interrupt"
http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-mtd/2015-February/057913.html
and this allows the nand controller to work properly again.
In addition, since this problem seems to be timing sensitive, I have
also tried
increasing the CHIP_DELAY_TIMEOUT value, which also got the NAND controller
working properly without commands timing out.
diff --git a/drivers/mtd/nand/pxa3xx_nand.c b/drivers/mtd/nand/pxa3xx_nand.c

#include <linux/platform_data/mtd-nand-pxa3xx.h>
-#define CHIP_DELAY_TIMEOUT msecs_to_jiffies(200)
+#define CHIP_DELAY_TIMEOUT msecs_to_jiffies(300)
#define NAND_STOP_DELAY msecs_to_jiffies(40)
#define PAGE_CHUNK_SIZE (2048)
So I guess my question is whether the CHIP_DELAY_TIMEOUT should be increased
for 98DX4251, or is this likely to be caused by some other issue?
Another thing I have tried is cherry-picking the following new patches
in 4.4,
but the command time out issue still exist:
234b0ab mtd: pxa3xx_nand: clean up the pxa3xx timings
dc5f40d mtd: pxa3xx_nand: rework flash detection and timing setup
7bfd112 mtd: pxa3xx_nand: add helpers to setup the timings
05b8cd0 mtd: pxa3xx_nand: fix some compile issues on non-ARM arches
6369e7f mtd: pxa3xx_nand: switch to device PM
16cf509 mtd: pxa3xx_nand: don't duplicate MTD suspend/resume
932fbc8 mtd: nand: pxa3xx_nand: show parent device in sysfs
3819b67 mtd: nand: pxa3xx-nand: prevent DFI bus lockup on removal
c36eb77 mtd: nand: pxa3xx-nand: switch to dmaengine
c141e2c mtd: pxa3xx_nand: Remove unused platform-data flash specification
I found this patch, which sounds very relevant to my issue, and is
within the
update, but the issue still exists on 98DX4251:
"mtd: nand: pxa3xx-nand: fix random command timeouts"
http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-mtd/2015-August/061107.html
I have copied portion of the kernel boot log below:
