Subject: Nand flash: hang after erase
Date: Thu, 24 Jan 2002 12:13:22 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <3C4FFA62.505BD064@aminocom.com> (raw)
I'm playing with nandtest on an mtd partition, and found it hangs after
it has erased the first block. Putting in some debug I find that it gets
as far as the schedule call in mtdchar.c mtd_ioctl line 324. Here's a
snapshot:
/*
FIXME: Allow INTERRUPTIBLE. Which means
not having the wait_queue head on the stack.
If the wq_head is on the stack, and we
leave because we got interrupted, then the
wq_head is no longer there when the
callback routine tries to wake us up.
*/
ret = mtd->erase(mtd, erase);
if (!ret) {
set_current_state(TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE);
add_wait_queue(&waitq, &wait);
if (erase->state != MTD_ERASE_DONE &&
erase->state != MTD_ERASE_FAILED)
schedule();
remove_wait_queue(&waitq, &wait);
set_current_state(TASK_RUNNING);
ret = (erase->state == MTD_ERASE_FAILED)?-EIO:0;
}
Since I'm still on the beginning of the learning curve somewhat I have
no idea what this is trying to achieve, or where to go from here. Ideas,
pointers, please?
Ta,
Beth
