* Freescale General-Purpose Media Interface (GPMI)
The GPMI nand controller provides an interface to control the
NAND flash chips.
Required properties:
- compatible : should be "fsl,<chip>-gpmi-nand", the chip should be imx23,
imx28, imx6q, imx6qp, imx6sx, imx6ul, imx7d or imx6ull.
- reg : should contain registers location and length for gpmi and bch.
- reg-names: Should contain the reg names "gpmi-nand" and "bch"
- interrupts : BCH interrupt number.
- interrupt-names : Should be "bch".
- dmas: DMA specifier, consisting of a phandle to DMA controller node
and GPMI DMA channel ID.
Refer to dma.txt and fsl-mxs-dma.txt for details.
- dma-names: Must be "rx-tx".
Optional properties:
- nand-on-flash-bbt: boolean to enable on flash bbt option if not
present false
- fsl,use-minimum-ecc: Protect this NAND flash with the minimum ECC
strength required. The required ECC strength is
automatically discoverable for some flash
(e.g., according to the ONFI standard).
However, note that if this strength is not
discoverable or this property is not enabled,
the software may chooses an implementation-defined
ECC scheme.
- fsl,no-blockmark-swap: Don't swap the bad block marker from the OOB
area with the byte in the data area but rely on the
flash based BBT for identifying bad blocks.
NOTE: this is only valid in conjunction with
'nand-on-flash-bbt'.
WARNING: on i.MX28 blockmark swapping cannot be
disabled for the BootROM in the FCB. Thus,
partitions written from Linux with this feature
turned on may not be accessible by the BootROM
code.
- fsl,legacy-bch-geometry: Use legacy bch geometry(ECC scheme) that
compatible with 3.10 kernel. Without the property,
software may use ECC strength according to NAND chip
spec, e.g. ONFI standard.
The device tree may optionally contain sub-nodes describing partitions of the
address space. See partition.txt for more detail.
Examples:
gpmi-nand@8000c000 {
compatible = "fsl,imx28-gpmi-nand";
#address-cells = <1>;
#size-cells = <1>;
reg = <0x8000c000 2000>, <0x8000a000 2000>;
reg-names = "gpmi-nand", "bch";
interrupts = <41>;
interrupt-names = "bch";
dmas = <&dma_apbh 4>;
dma-names = "rx-tx";
partition@0 {
...
};
};
