The nand_scan_ident() iterates over maxchips, and calls nand_reset() for each. This driver currently passes the maximum number of banks (=chip selects) supported by the controller as maxchips. So, maxchips is typically 4 or 8. Usually, less number of NAND chips are connected to the controller. This can be a problem for ONFi devices. Now, this driver implements ->setup_data_interface() hook, so nand_setup_data_interface() issues Set Features (0xEF) command, which waits until the chip returns R/B# response. If no chip there, we know it never happens, but the driver still ends up with waiting for a long time. It will finally bail-out with timeout error and the driver will work with existing chips, but unnecessary wait will give a bad user experience. The denali_nand_reset() polls the INTR__RST_COMP and INTR__TIME_OUT bits, but they are always set even if not NAND chip is connected to that bank. To know the chip existence, INTR__INT_ACT bit must be checked; this flag is set only when R/B# is toggled. Since the Reset (0xFF) command toggles the R/B# pin, this can be used to know the actual number of chips, and update denali->max_banks.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
