[PATCH v2 00/12] mtd: nand_bbt: introduce independent nand BBT

From: Peter Pan
Date: Tue Dec 15 2015 - 01:15:13 EST


Currently nand_bbt.c is tied with struct nand_chip, and it makes other
NAND family chips hard to use nand_bbt.c. Maybe it's the reason why
onenand has own bbt(onenand_bbt.c).

Separate struct nand_chip from BBT code can make current BBT shareable.
We create struct nand_bbt to take place of nand_chip in nand_bbt.c.
Struct nand_bbt contains all the information BBT needed from outside and
it should be embedded into NAND family chip struct (such as struct nand_chip).
NAND family driver should allocate, initialize and free struct nand_bbt.

Below is mtd folder structure we want:
mtd
âââ Kconfig
âââ Makefile
âââ ...
âââ nand_bbt.c
âââ nand
â âââ Kconfig
â âââ Makefile
â âââ nand_base.c
â âââ nand_ids.c
â âââ ...
â âââ xway_nand.c
âââ spi-nand
â âââ Kconfig
â âââ Makefile
â âââ spi-nand-base.c
â âââ ...
â âââ spi-nand-device.c
âââ ...

Most of the patch is borrowed from Brian Norris <computersforpeace@xxxxxxxxx>.
http://git.infradead.org/users/norris/linux-mtd.git/shortlog/refs/heads/nand-bbt
Based on Brian's suggestion, I make my previous BBT patch into 12 independent
patches. Previous patch is http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/492066/
Beside the patch split, I also moved nand_bbt.c to mtd folder, which didn't in
previous patch.

Patch 3, 7, 8, 9, 10 and 11 are totally borrowed from Brian's git tree. I just
test and split the code into independent patch. Patch 1, 2, 5 and 6 are partial
borrowed. I make some changes from Brian's git tree and the changes are recorded
in commit log. Patch 4 and 12 are written by me.

The patch is tested on Zed board.
