For the current block, "written_size" has been written to the NAND Flash yet, so left_to_write should be subtracted by "written_size". Cheers, Hou.

But left_to_write isn't decreased until after this error return, so that's already the case. Subtracting written_size from left_to_write has the effect of increasing length by written_size, so the return value will now look like the error page has been written. -Scott

In no-WITH_YAFFS_OOB case, when nand_write failed, truncated_write_size has been updated by nand_write to the length which has been successfully written , so it's OK to subtract written_size from left_to_write. In WITH_YAFFS_OOB case, when nand->write_oob failed, written_size is also the length which has been successfully written. Cheers, Hou

So if you insist the subtraction of written_len is unnecessary, it's alright with me. Thanks. Hou

When the data has been partially written into the NAND Flash, returning the written length instead of 0. The written length may be useful when the upper level decides to continue the writing after skipping the block causing the write failure.
