You are right. It worked on my machine, but i guess that is again machine-dependent.

The cap_low, cap_high and syndrome are used in the printk following the if-Block.
This will make expected data / captured data look the same.

I would prefer printing exptected data and captured data in the same format, making it
easier to compare them directly.

Opening brace is on the same line for if-statements.

My only concern here is that you'll be printing "Expected Data ..."
unconditionally even if either or both - bad_data_bit and bad_ecc_bit
- are -1.

If the driver cannot decode the data and/or ECC syndrome bits, then it
should say so - not dump expected data and claim that it is a valid
information.

So maybe in addition to the above:

	if (bad_data_bit != -1) {
		...
	} else {
		fsl_mc_printk(..., "Unable to decode the Faulty Data bit");
	}

and the same for the ECC bit.

And then print only the expected data for the bit which sbe_ecc_decode()
found correctly and not say anything otherwise.

That shouldn't happen. The whole if-block is only executed when a single 
bit correctable error has occured (DDR_EDE_SBE). So we always should have
bad_data_bit or bad_ecc_bit (exclusively).

Ok, that is reaonable. But that shouldn't that go into sbe_ecc_decode()?.
Currently sbe_ecc_decude() returns on the first error it finds. So we would
have to rework this function.

I suggest adding such an message to sbe_ecc_decode(). Also to add an
return 0 on success and to check that before printing infos about single
bit errors.

Also i just noticed in the kernel log is no hint that this is an
single bit error. Maybe we should add this too?

Ooh, that sbe_ecc_decode() function would give you either the data bit
- if that one is in error - and if not the data bit, then the ECC bit.
Aha.

Ok, so what the driver should do, IMO, is this:

	if (bad_data_bit != -1) {
		...

		fsl_mc_printk("Single-bit data error, ... ", bad_data_bit);
		fsl_mc_printk("Expected Data/Captured Data, ... ", exp_high, exp_low, cap_high, cap_low);
	}

	if (bad_ecc_bit != -1) {
		...

		fsl_mc_printk("Single-bit ECC error, ... ", bad_ecc_bit);
		fsl_mc_printk("Expected ECC/Captured ECC, ... ", exp_syndrome, syndrome);
	}

This way you only print either the data or the ECC value which was in
error but not both.

Makes sense?
