Re: [U-Boot] [PATCH] nand_base: Add timeout for NAND reset command

Dear Peter Tyser,

In message 1233782967.7067.338.camel@localhost.localdomain you wrote:

...

get_ticks() not a public interface. It should not be used in any common code.

Please use get_timer().

Ah, I see.

The problem is that the NAND code is used prior to interrupts being enabled, thus we can't use get_timer(). I used a hokey delay based on (read times * number of iterations). Whats worse, my hokey loop or get_ticks()?

I can't tell. Thing is that get_ticks() may or may not exist. I don't think all architectures have it. I don't see it for ixp, leon*, mcf*, microblaze, mips, nios*, ...

Best regards,
