Hi Boris, Nicolas !
Since commit f88fc122cc34 ("mtd: nand: Cleanup/rework the atmel_nand driver")
strange things happen when nand-ecc-strength = <4>; (previously atmel,pmecc-cap).
I first saw that a NULL pointer dereference happened when "udevadm trigger" was launched.
With strace, I nailed it down to :
sh-4.3# echo change > /sys/devices/virtual/bdi/mtd-1/uevent

[ 87.039277] Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init! exitcode=0x0000000b
This is fun because it really doesn't seem to have anything to do with atmel-nand...
I first found that on my custom board, built around an at91sam9g35-cm, but I managed to trigger it
on an at91sam9g35-ek board, with a 4.13.3 kernel.
NB: I couldn't trigger this with ecc-strength = 2
So, here is my configuration:
- at91sam9g35-ek board with the image ftp://www.at91.com/pub/demo/linux4sam_5.6/linux4sam-poky-at91sam9x5ek-5.6.zip
I flashed this image a first time as is, and then I flashed only the rfs with eccType 0xc0902405.
- Kernel 4.13.3 with the quick'n dirty patch:
--- a/arch/arm/boot/dts/at91sam9x5cm.dtsi

To trigger the kernel panic on a 4.13.3 kernel:

[ 21.490000] Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init! exitcode=0x0000000b
Or, we can just launch udev:
udevd -d
udevadm trigger
(udevadm actually writes "changes" in uevent files).
Now, a fun fact: If we add CONFIG_PM, there's no more kernel panic. (wtf?!)
I also tried to boot with a nfs-root, echo changed > ".../uevent", no kernel panic.
Then, ubiattach the mtd partition, echo changed > ".../uevent" => PANIC !
So, it really seems to be nand-related.
Any idea ?
Richard.
