Hi, this is Qi-Ze Huang(Sky Huang) from MediaTek. On our router platforms
chips, we have to quality lots of SPI-NAND devices and are eager for
a standard so that we don't need to maintain trivial flash ID table
anymore. I also noticed a talk in 2019 Embedded Linux Conference,
Memory Technology Devices: what's new, which mentioned "ONFI for
SPI-NANDs? Maybe, maybe not".

So earlier this year, I proposed a bold idea, CASN page (Common Attributes
for SPI-NAND). I worked together with top 3 SPI-NAND market share flash
vendors and other vendors to integrate CASN page on their SPI-NAND devices
including but not limited to:
[ESMT]
F50L1G41LB
F50L2G41KA

[Etron]
EM73C044VCF-H
EM73D044VCO-H
EM73E044VCE-H
EM73F044VCA-H

[GigaDevice]
GD5F1GM7UE
GD5F1GQ5UEYIG
GD5F2GM7UE
GD5F2GQ5UEYIG
GD5F4GM8UE
GD5F4GQ6UEYIG

[Macronix (MXIC)]
MX35LF1GE4ABZ4IG

[Winbond]
W25N01GV
W25N01KV
W25N02KV
W25N04KV

A document of CASN is hosted on github(https://github.com/mtk-openwrt/
doc/blob/main/CASN%20Page%20Introduction.pdf) So I'll try to keep it
simple here.

With CASN page, we don't need to maintain SPI-NAND flash ID table anymore.
Currently, it's integrated in 3.3V SPI-NANDs of small density and it's not
JEDEC standard yet. But it should be able to handle 1.8V and can be easily
integrated by flash vendors.

I believe this idea and implementation have room for improvement. Hope to
hear you open source community's comments soon.
