Yes. :)
1. Are you using the generic command function now ?
2. In yaffs_mtdif.c
struct nand_oobinfo yaffs_oobinfo = {
useecc: 1,
#if (LINUX_VERSION_CODE >= KERNEL_VERSION(2,6,8))
// this is for versions of mtd nand driver in kernel 2.6.8 and later
eccbytes: 6,
#endif
eccpos: {8, 9, 10, 13, 14, 15}
};
The eccbytes setup is neccecary for current MTD CVS. Did you modify the
#if (LINUX_ ....) ?
