But program data into a erasure interrupted block can cause program timtout(several minutes at most) error, could impact other operation on NOR flash. So UBIFS can read this block first to avoid unneeded program operation. This patch try to put read operation at head of write operation in nor_erase_prepare(), read out the data. If the data is already corrupt, then no need to program any data into this block, just go to erase this block. This patch is validated on Micron NOR flash, part number is：JS28F512M29EWHA Signed-off-by: Qi Wang --- drivers/mtd/ubi/io.c | 55 ++++++++++++++++++++++------------------------------ 1 file changed, 23 insertions(+), 32 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/mtd/ubi/io.c b/drivers/mtd/ubi/io.c index bf79def..ae9e5ca 100644 --- a/drivers/mtd/ubi/io.c +++ b/drivers/mtd/ubi/io.c @@ -495,10 +495,12 @@ out: */ static int nor_erase_prepare(struct ubi_device *ubi, int pnum) { - int err, err1; + int err; size_t written; loff_t addr; uint32_t data = 0; + struct ubi_ec_hdr ec_hdr; + /* * Note, we cannot generally define VID header buffers on stack, * because of the way we deal with these buffers (see the header @@ -509,50 +511,39 @@ static int nor_erase_prepare(struct ubi_device *ubi, int pnum) struct ubi_vid_hdr vid_hdr; /* + * If VID or EC is valid, we have to corrupt them before erasing. * It is important to first invalidate the EC header, and then the VID * header.
