Some SPI-NAND chips do not have a proper on-die ECC engine providing error correction/detection. This is particularly an issue on embedded devices with limited resources because all the computations must happen in software, unless an external hardware engine is provided. These external engines are new and can be of two categories: external or pipelined. Macronix is providing both, the former being already supported. The second, however, is very SoC implementation dependent and must be instantiated by the SPI host controller directly. An entire subsystem has been contributed to support these engines which makes the insertion into another subsystem such as SPI quite straightforward without the need for a lot of specific functions.
