From 3287f6d3858faee768a7c47515bd21914ad591a2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: =?UTF-8?q?Beno=C3=AEt=20Th=C3=A9baudeau?= Date: Fri, 16 Nov 2012 20:20:54 +0100 Subject: nand: Add torture feature MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit This patch adds a NAND Flash torture feature, which is useful as a block stress test to determine if a block is still good and reliable (or should be marked as bad), e.g. after a write error. This code is ported from mtd-utils' lib/libmtd.c.
