Macronix NANDs support randomizer operation for user data scrambled,
which can be enabled with a SET_FEATURE.
User data written to the NAND device without randomizer is still readable
after randomizer function enabled.
The penalty of randomizer are NOP = 1 instead of NOP = 4 and more time period
is needed in program operation and entering deep power-down mode.
i.e., tPROG 300us to 340us(randomizer enabled)
If subpage write not available with hardware ECC, for example,
NAND chip options NAND_NO_SUBPAGE_WRITE be set in driver and
randomizer function is recommended for high-reliability.
Driver checks byte 167 of Vendor Blocks in ONFI parameter page table
to see if this high-reliability function is supported.

You did not flagged this patch as a v2 and forgot about the changelog.
You did not listen to our comments in the last version neither. I was
open to a solution with a specific DT property for warned users but I
don't see it coming.

Sorry I missed the previous version of "read-retry and randomizer support"
patch.
Specific DT property is a good method to control it.
For more high-reliability concern, randomizer is recommended to enable by
default,
but sub-page write is not allowed when randomizer is enabled.
Since most of HW ECC did not support sub-page write and we think driver to
check
chip options flags is another simple and good way to enable randomizer.

okay, I see.

Sorry but this is wrong. Several controllers and NAND chips support
subpages. And changing now the behavior with such chips would entirely
break the concerned setups (see Boris answer about UBI complaining if
the subpage size changes).

Based on your comments by specific DT property for randomizer support.
to add a new property in children nodes:
i.e,.
nand: nand-controller@43c30000 {
nand@0 {
reg = <0>;
nand-reliability = "randomizer";
};
};
file of nand_macronix.c will patch to:
static void macronix_nand_onfi_init(struct nand_chip *chip)
{
struct nand_parameters *p = &chip->parameters;
struct device_node *dn = nand_get_flash_node(chip);
const char *pm;
int rand_enable = 0;
ret = of_property_read_string(dn, "nand-reliability", &pm);
if (!ret) {
if (!strcasecmp(pm, "randomizer"));
rand_enable = 1;
}
mxic = (struct nand_onfi_vendor_macronix *)p->onfi->vendor;
if (rand_enable &&
mxic->reliability_func & MACRONIX_RANDOMIZER_BIT) {
if (p->supports_set_get_features) {
bitmap_set(p->set_feature_list,
ONFI_FEATURE_ADDR_MXIC_RANDOMIZER, 1);
bitmap_set(p->get_feature_list,
ONFI_FEATURE_ADDR_MXIC_RANDOMIZER, 1);
/* set-up chip options with NAND_NO_SUBPAGE_WRITE
*/
chip->options |= NAND_NO_SUBPAGE_WRITE;
macronix_nand_randomizer_check_enable(chip);
}
}
}
something like this,
is it OK ?
