From 36415a7964711822e63695ea67fede63979054d9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: david regan dregan@mail.com Date: Wed, 26 Jan 2022 23:43:44 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] mtd: rawnand: brcmnand: Fixed incorrect sub-page ECC status
The brcmnand driver contains a bug in which if a page (example 2k byte) is read from the parallel/ONFI NAND and within that page a subpage (512 byte) has correctable errors which is followed by a subpage with uncorrectable errors, the page read will return the wrong status of correctable (as opposed to the actual status of uncorrectable.)
The bug is in function brcmnand_read_by_pio where there is a check for uncorrectable bits which will be preempted if a previous status for correctable bits is detected.
The fix is to stop checking for bad bits only if we already have a bad bits status.
