Hello, I have a problem with MMC speed while using U-boot 2021.07 with raspberryPi - it takes about 2 min to fatload 15MB kernel file. Any suggestions ? Thank you.

[PATCH] arm: dts: ls1088a: Update qspi node properties
by Kuldeep Singh 01 Oct '21

01 Oct '21

Remove "num-cs" property from device-tree as it is no longer used by qspi driver anymore. Also, specify status as "disabled" and enable qspi support in respective board dts files. This will also help in aligning node properties with other board properties.

[PATCH u-boot-spi v2 0/9] Fix `mtd erase` when used with mtdpart
by Marek Behún 01 Oct '21

01 Oct '21

From: Marek Behún <marek.behun(a)nic.cz> The original cover letter said: this patch series fixes the `mtd erase` command when used with mtdpart with a partition of non-zero offset. Currently when the `mtd erase` command is used for such a partition, it does not erase all blocks. Instead after a block is erased, the next block address not current block address + block size, but current block address + block size + partition offset, due to spi_nor_erase() not calling mtd_erase_callback(): => mtd erase "Rescue system" Erasing 0x00000000 ... 0x006fffff (1792 eraseblock(s)) jedec_spi_nor spi-nor@0: at 0x100000, len 4096 jedec_spi_nor spi-nor@0: at 0x201000, len 4096 jedec_spi_nor spi-nor@0: at 0x302000, len 4096 jedec_spi_nor spi-nor@0: at 0x403000, len 4096 jedec_spi_nor spi-nor@0: at 0x504000, len 4096 jedec_spi_nor spi-nor@0: at 0x605000, len 4096 jedec_spi_nor spi-nor@0: at 0x706000, len 4096 This series adds some fixes to spi_nor_erase() function, then adds calling of mtd_erase_callback() to fix this bug. The series also contains an improvement - adding the posibility to interrupt spi_nor_erase() with Ctrl+C; and another one - making mtdpart's _erase() method more sane so that the above mentioned bug will not occur even if underlying driver does not call mtd_erase_callback(). Finally the last patch removes mtd_erase_callback() entirely, since: - all provided callbacks across U-Boot are no-ops - mtd_erase_callback() is abused for completely different purpose than the original one (as explained in last commit message) Marek Changes since v1: - fixed CI bugs (by removing mtd_erase_callback() entirely) Marek Behún (9): mtd: spi-nor-core: Try cleaning up in case writing BAR failed mtd: spi-nor-core: Check return value of write_enable() in spi_nor_erase() mtd: spi-nor-core: Don't overwrite return value if it is non-zero mtd: spi-nor-core: Check return value of write_disable() in spi_nor_erase() mtd: spi-nor-core: Don't check for zero length in spi_nor_erase() mtd: spi-nor-core: Call mtd_erase_callback() from spi_nor_erase() mtd: spi-nor-core: Check for ctrlc() in spi_nor_erase() mtd: mtdpart: Make mtdpart's _erase method sane mtd: Remove mtd_erase_callback() entirely cmd/onenand.c | 9 ++----- drivers/mtd/altera_qspi.c | 3 --- drivers/mtd/cfi_mtd.c | 1 - drivers/mtd/mtdconcat.c | 11 -------- drivers/mtd/mtdcore.c | 8 ------ drivers/mtd/mtdpart.c | 23 +++++----------- drivers/mtd/nand/raw/nand_base.c | 4 --- drivers/mtd/onenand/onenand_base.c | 3 --- drivers/mtd/spi/sf_mtd.c | 1 - drivers/mtd/spi/spi-nor-core.c | 43 +++++++++++++++++++++++------- drivers/mtd/ubi/io.c | 13 --------- env/onenand.c | 4 +-- fs/yaffs2/yaffs_mtdif.c | 1 - include/linux/mtd/mtd.h | 11 -------- include/nand.h | 1 - 15 files changed, 42 insertions(+), 94 deletions(-) -- 2.32.0
