Greetings,

I have recently imported code for the FreeBSD NAND Flash Framework into =
P4:

http://p4db.freebsd.org/changeList.cgi?FSPC=3D//depot/projects/nand2/...

The framework is basically a set of interfaces that aim to provide an =
extensible, object oriented environement for NAND controllers and chips =
from various hardware vendors, found on embedded systems. The example =
implementation of a NAND flash controller back-end driver is for Marvell =
MV-78XXX system on chip (featuring NAND block among other elements).

Included is a full system simulator of ONFI-compliant devices (NANDsim), =
with userland control application, which allows for managment of the =
simulations.

I have updated the NAND wiki (http://wiki.freebsd.org/NAND) accordingly, =
with a new section dedicated for this development (FreeBSD NAND Flash =
Framework) providing some more details.

We are looking for review, comments and any other feedback.

Rafal
