    mtd: nand: vf610_nfc: Freescale NFC for VF610, MPC5125 and others · 456930d8
    Stefan Agner authored
    This driver supports Freescale NFC (NAND flash controller) found on
    Vybrid (VF610), MPC5125, MCF54418 and Kinetis K70. The driver has
    been tested using 8-bit and 16-bit NAND interface on the ARM based
    Vybrid SoC VF500 and VF610 platform.
    parameter page reading.
    
    Limitations:
    - Untested on MPC5125 and M54418.
    - DMA and pipelining not used.
    - 2K pages or less.
    - No chip select, one NAND chip per controller.
    - No hardware ECC.
    
    Some paths have been hand-optimized and evaluated by measurements
    made using mtd_speedtest.ko on a 100MB MTD partition.

    rel = using readl_relaxed/writel_relaxed in optimized paths
    opt = hand-optimized by combining multiple accesses into one read/write
    
    The measurements have not been statistically verfied, hence use them
    with care. The author came to the conclusion that using the relaxed
    variants of readl/writel are not worth the additional code.
