From 7d5929c1f34304ca5a970cfde8044053e56aa8c9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Roger Quadros Date: Mon, 25 Aug 2014 16:15:32 -0700 Subject: mtd: nand: omap: Revert to using software ECC by default For v3.12 and prior, 1-bit Hamming code ECC via software was the default choice. Commit c66d039197e4 in v3.13 changed the behaviour to use 1-bit Hamming code via Hardware using a different ECC layout i.e. (ROM code layout) than what is used by software ECC. This ECC layout change causes NAND filesystems created in v3.12 and prior to be unusable in v3.13 and later. So revert back to using software ECC by default if an ECC scheme is not explicitely specified. This defect can be observed on the following boards during legacy boot -omap3beagle -omap3touchbook -overo -am3517crane -devkit8000 -ldp -3430sdp Signed-off-by: Roger Quadros Tested-by: Grazvydas Ignotas Signed-off-by: Tony Lindgren --- arch/arm/mach-omap2/board-flash.c | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) (limited to 'arch/arm/mach-omap2/board-flash.c') diff --git a/arch/arm/mach-omap2/board-flash.c b/arch/arm/mach-omap2/board-flash.c index e87f2a83d6bf..2d245c2e641c 100644 --- a/arch/arm/mach-omap2/board-flash.c +++ b/arch/arm/mach-omap2/board-flash.c @@ -142,7 +142,7 @@ __init board_nand_init(struct mtd_partition *nand_parts, u8 nr_parts, u8 cs, board_nand_data.nr_parts = nr_parts; board_nand_data.devsize = nand_type; - board_nand_data.ecc_opt = OMAP_ECC_HAM1_CODE_HW; + board_nand_data.ecc_opt = OMAP_ECC_HAM1_CODE_SW; gpmc_nand_init(&board_nand_data, gpmc_t); } #endif /* CONFIG_MTD_NAND_OMAP2 || CONFIG_MTD_NAND_OMAP2_MODULE */ -- cgit v1.2.3
