nand_read_page_swecc(9)

💖 NAME 💖

okay so this is nand_read_page_swecc(9) from the Kernel API Manual, and she is literally the [REPLACEABLE] software ECC based page read function. That's the whole vibe: software ECC, page read, iconic behavior. 💅

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

int nand_read_page_swecc (struct nand_chip *chip , uint8_t *buf , int oob_required , int page );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• chip — nand chip info structure. Like, the chip's whole info situation. 🫶
• buf — buffer to store read data. This is where the read data goes, bestie. 💾
• oob_required — caller requires OOB data read to chip->oob_poi. So when the caller needs that OOB data read into chip->oob_poi, this is the flag saying so. ✨
• page — page number to read. Just the page number, no cap. 📄
