I think ther emust be still problems with that driver.
I tried and enabled mtdparts and JFFS2 support, but I get strange
errors.
For example on MPS5121ADS:

Note that the debug output above indicates that the partition support
seems to see only 512 MB of NAND flash, while there are actually 1024
MB available (see U-Boot start message above).
On ARIA I see this:
=> nand bad
Device 0 bad blocks:
Bad block table found at page 65472, version 0x01
Bad block table found at page 65408, version 0x01
nand_read_bbt: Bad block at 0x01480000
01480000
07f80000
07fa0000
07fc0000
07fe0000
=> nand bad
Device 0 bad blocks:
01480000
07f80000
07fa0000
07fc0000
07fe0000
Why does the output of the two invocations of the "nand bad" command
differ?
Are above lines debug messages that should be silenced, or is it
useful information that should always be printed?
Then:
=> chpar nand0,0
partition changed to nand0,0
=> ls
Scanning JFFS2 FS: read_nand_cached: error reading nand off 0x147fe00
size 8192 bytes
read_nand_cached: error reading nand off 0x1480000 size 8192 bytes
...... read_nand_cached: error reading nand off
0x7fffe00 size 8192 bytes done.

What do the "read_nand_cached" error messages mean? They kind of
match the bad block information above - so is this debug code that
should be silenced?
Also, do you think it is normal that the listing above takes 6.5
seconds or so - per line of output?!?!
Any help appreciated.
Best regards,
Wolfgang Denk
