Agree. I have tried your formula and calculated the ecc size and they are

ECC will be enabled only for page read/write operations defined for hwecc.
In all other cases it will be diabled.
As per the controller spec, the ecc should be enabled while framing the
Command register itself and before issuing the command in program register.
So, every time, a new command issued this bit will be overwritten.

Agree. But I don't have a choice here. I have just verified the pxa3xx
Implementation for read_byte and it also using the similar approach.
The framework should definitely read the finite number of bytes and it
Should be as per the onfi spec. Could you point me the case/command
That may read variable number of bytes ?

Yes. But yet the outset we need to write the specific command bit in
program register though we program the addr and command registers.
you could see the macros start with PROG_XXX for programing the specific
command in program register. After writing this bit, then only controller starts
the communication with the flash device.

As I mentioned, the controller can issue up to 26 commands defined
In onfi 3.1 spec. No support for any other private/vendor specific commands.
The program register has 26 bits to trigger the any of one of these 26 commands
In a given time.

Yes. Corrected it. In general it has two values 0 or 1
0 for chip select 1 and 1 for chip select 2. So, ideally it will not affect the CS line
Though you have not opted for de-select. So, I didn't caught this issue. But
As per the sequence It need to deselected.

Ok. Yes, you are correct. Controller is proving the option to configure the timing
Modes. But not the way other controllers are doing like tRR, tWR..
It is providing the register called Data interface register which allow use configuring the
Interface type i.e SDR/DDR and timing modes i.e. 0 to 5. So, controller will generate the
Required timings as per the ONFI spec and based on the timing mode selected.

Agree. But the controller itself claims it supports ONFI devices and the init sequence
recommends to check ONFI signature first. Also our chip will not boot if the device
Is not compliant to ONFI. So, it's a known limitation that the controller will not work
for non-ONFI devices.
