hey, i downloaded the september and november versions and i applied the patches on both of them, re-compiled the u boot, and still, it gives me the same error when trying the command "sf probe" i'm not sure what to do, is it possible that i missed something? like a define or something in the make menuconfig? i did some debugging and it seems that the crash happens on this line: div = DIV_ROUND_UP(ref_clk_hz, sclk-hz * 2) -1; thanks.

- The indaddrtrig register was being programmed with an incorrect

architectures. Plus it aligns the DT between u-boot and Linux.
That should be an easy patch, so this is the patchset 0/5..5/5 that you just submitted ?
Yes. I saw you Acked it, thank you.
- The cadence driver was modified at one point to use the bouncebuf
functions to fix an issue on a TI architecture that expected, where if I recall correctly all reads except the last have to be 32-bit reads. However, since the bouncebuf was designed for DMA transfers, it invalidates the data cache after reading, but since the cadence is using cpu transfers the newly read data is thrown away when the cache is invalidated. This issue is resolved by reverting the
commit that
introduced using the bounce buffer for read operations, which according
to
Vignesh don't cause any issues to the TI architecture.
Hmmmmm, I wonder why you need bounce buffer at all here. The CQSPI literally reads/writes a register space (or some FIFO in register space), there is no DMA involved at all. I also wonder why we have to manipulate with cache at all here.
I agree, I don't believe this needs a bounce buffer at all. This isn't a DMA, there is no need for cache manipulation. Vignesh understands the problem better than I do on the TI platform, but I believe it was used since it was an easy way to ensure the register
read/writes
were all 32-bits wide up until the last read/write.
Yes, that was the intention. Unfortunately, I chose to use common bounce
buffer
implementation which was doing cache manipulations.
I believe the bounce buffer should be removed from the CQSPI driver and a different solution should be implemented, but Vignesh should weigh in on that since it effects his architecture.
CQSPI on TI K2G has problems with non 32 bit aligned write operations. But read operations are unaffected. Therefore I have Ack'ed Simon's patch reverting bouncebuf for read. For writes, I have patches to revert common bouncebuf usage and use a local pagesize buffer for overcome alignment
issue. I
am waiting for current patch backlogs to be merged so that its easy for
testing w/o
specifying bunch of dependent patches.
Or if Simon agrees, I can add his patch to my series post it to mailing
list (rebased
on top of Jason's series)?
Well, it's not really "my" patch, anyway. It reverts a commit of yours, so sure, as long as this does not stand in the way of getting qspi running on 2018.03, go ahead and itegrate it in your patchset.
I'd be happy to have this sent now so I can test both patchsets on top of 2018.01(-rc).
Thanks, Simon
