However, selection of ECC scheme is dependent +on various other factors also like; + +(1) support of built in hardware engines. + Some legacy OMAP SoC do not have ELM harware engine, so those SoC cannot + support ecc-schemes with hardware error-correction (BCHx_HW). However + such SoC can use ecc-schemes with software library for error-correction + (BCHx_HW_DETECTION_SW). The error correction capability with software + library remains equivalent to their hardware counter-part, but there is + slight CPU penalty when too many bit-flips are detected during reads. + +(2) Device parameters like OOBSIZE. + Other factor which governs the selection of ecc-scheme is oob-size. + Higher ECC schemes require more OOB/Spare area to store ECC syndrome, + so the device should have enough free bytes available its OOB/Spare + area to accommodate ECC for entire page. In general following expression + helps in determining if given device can accommodate ECC syndrome: + "2 + (PAGESIZE / 512) * ECC_BYTES" <= OOBSIZE" + where + OOBSIZE number of bytes in OOB/spare area + PAGESIZE number of bytes in main-area of device page + ECC_BYTES number of ECC bytes generated to protect + 512 bytes of data, which is: + '3' for HAM1_xx ecc schemes + '7' for BCH4_xx ecc schemes + '14' for BCH8_xx ecc schemes + '26' for BCH16_xx ecc schemes + + Example(a): For a device with PAGESIZE = 2048 and OOBSIZE = 64 and + trying to use BCH16 (ECC_BYTES=26) ecc-scheme. + Number of ECC bytes per page = (2 + (2048 / 512) * 26) = 106 B + which is greater than capacity of NAND device (OOBSIZE=64) + Hence, BCH16 cannot be supported on given device. But it can + probably use lower ecc-schemes like BCH8. + + Example(b): For a device with PAGESIZE = 2048 and OOBSIZE = 128 and + trying to use BCH16 (ECC_BYTES=26) ecc-scheme. + Number of ECC bytes per page = (2 + (2048 / 512) * 26) = 106 B + which can be accommodated in the OOB/Spare area of this device + (OOBSIZE=128). So this device can use BCH16 ecc-scheme. |
