	Steven Maddox reported in the OpenWrt bugzilla, that his RaidSonic IB-NAS4220-B was no longer booting with the new OpenWrt 21.02 (uses linux 5.10's device-tree). However, it was working with the previous OpenWrt 19.07 series (uses 4.14). (This is still under investigation.)

| Subject: [PATCH] ARM: dts: gemini: NAS4220-B: fis-index-block with 128 KiB
 | |
|  sectors
 | |
| 
 | |
| Steven Maddox reported in the OpenWrt bugzilla, that his
 | |
| RaidSonic IB-NAS4220-B was no longer booting with the new
 | |
| OpenWrt 21.02 (uses linux 5.10's device-tree). However, it was
 | |
| working with the previous OpenWrt 19.07 series (uses 4.14).

 | |
| 
 | |
| The provided bootlog shows that the RedBoot partition parser was
 | |
| looking for the partition table "at offset 0x0". Which is strange
 | |
| since the comment in the device-tree says it should be at 0xfe0000.
 | |
| 
 | |
| Further digging on the internet led to a review site that took
 | |
| some useful PCB pictures of their review unit back in February 2009.
 | |
| Their picture shows a Spansion S29GL128N11TFI01 flash chip.
 | |
| 
 | |
| From Spansion's Datasheet:
 | |
| "S29GL128N: One hundred twenty-eight 64 Kword (128 Kbyte) sectors"
 | |
| The reported also provided a "cat /sys/class/mtd/mtd0/erasesize",
 | |
| which returned "131072".
 | |
| 
 | |
| With the 128 KiB Sector/Erasesize in mind. This patch changes the
 | |
| fis-index-block property to (0xfe0000 / 0x20000) = 0x7f.
 | |
| 
 | |
| Note:
 | |
| Let's hope the vendor stuck to the 128 KiB sector size flash chip
 | |
| for all units still out there.
