mtd: nand: wait to set BBT version
Because there are so many cases of checking, writing, and re-writing of the bad block table(s), we might as well wait until the we've settled on a valid, clean copy of the table. This also prevents us from falsely incrementing the table version. For example, we may have the following: Primary table, with version 0x02 Mirror table, with version 0x01 Primary table has uncorrectable ECC errors If we don't have this fix applied, then we will: Choose to read the primary table (higher version) Set mirror table version to 0x02 Read back primary table Invalidate table because of ECC errors Retry readback operation with mirror table, now version 0x02 Mirrored table reads cleanly Writeback BBT to primary table location (with "version 0x02") However, the mirrored table shouldn't have a new version number. Instead, we actually want: Choose to read the primary table (higher version) Read back primary table Invalidate table because of ECC errors Retry readback with mirror table (version 0x01) Mirrored table reads cleanly Set both tables to version 0x01 Writeback BBT to primary table location (version 0x01) Signed-off-by: Brian Norris <computersforpeace@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <artem.bityutskiy@intel.com>
