TMS320C6678: replacing nand flash of evm6678 by another nand flash

Part Number: TMS320C6678
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: 66AK2H14

hello

we used same nand flash as evmc6678 board during development phase of our project. that part is now desolated and we should choose new one for 6678.

the old part was NAND512R3A2SZA6E, the new part recommended by micron is MT29F1G08ABBEAH4-ITX:E.

we have two problem now:

1. according to emif16 document of 6678, emif16 won't support nand flash which need for CE to be held low during read operation. there is nothing about this behavior in datasheet of MT29F1G08ABBEAH4 but TI used similar part in K2EVM-HK board (MT29F4G08ABBDAHC), which also use emif16 as its nand interface. according to this, can we assume that MT29F1G08ABBEAH4-ITX:E is compatible with emif16 of 6678?

2. page size of MT29F1G08ABBEAH4-ITX:E differ from page size of NAND512R3A2SZA6E, we can handle this difference in IBL (we wrote our own IBL), but what about c6xlinux? which part of linux we should change so we can use this nand flash with ux-c6x-linux?
