[ Upstream commit fdf2e821052958a114618a95ab18a300d0b080cb ] When erased subpages are read then the BCH decoder returns STATUS_ERASED if they are all empty, or STATUS_UNCORRECTABLE if there are bitflips. When there are bitflips, we have to set these bits again to show the upper layers a completely erased page. When a bitflip happens in the exact byte where the bad block marker is, then this byte is swapped with another byte in block_mark_swapping(). The correction code then detects a bitflip in another subpage and no longer corrects the bitflip where it really happens. Correct this behaviour by calling block_mark_swapping() after the bitflips have been corrected. In our case UBIFS failed with this bug because it expects erased pages to be really empty: UBIFS error (pid 187): ubifs_scan: corrupt empty space at LEB 36:118735 UBIFS error (pid 187): ubifs_scanned_corruption: corruption at LEB 36:118735 UBIFS error (pid 187): ubifs_scanned_corruption: first 8192 bytes from LEB 36:118735 UBIFS error (pid 187): ubifs_scan: LEB 36 scanning failed UBIFS error (pid 187): do_commit: commit failed, error -117 Signed-off-by: Sascha Hauer <s.hauer@pengutronix.de> Reviewed-by: Richard Weinberger <richard@nod.at> Acked-by: Boris Brezillon <boris.brezillon@free-electrons.com> Signed-off-by: Richard Weinberger <richard@nod.at> Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin <alexander.levin@verizon.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
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.
