Instead, is it possible to add "spi-flash" to the list of compatible strings in your device tree?
The compatible "spi-flash" is not defined/documented in kernel and compatible "s25fl256s1" is already documented and present in dt files. So it will be good to follow the same dt compatibles in U-Boot so that future merge/sync will be easier.
Agreed.
I see this in kernel upstream at present:
git grep s25fl256s1 arch/arm/boot/dts/dra7-evm.dts: compatible = "s25fl256s1"; arch/arm/boot/dts/dra72-evm.dts: compatible = "s25fl256s1"; arch/arm/boot/dts/qcom-ipq8064-ap148.dts: compatible = "s25fl256s1"; arch/powerpc/boot/dts/fsl/kmcoge4.dts: compatible = "spansion,s25fl256s1"; drivers/mtd/devices/m25p80.c: {"s25fl256s1"}, {"s25fl512s"}, {"s25sl12801"}, {"s25fl008k"}, drivers/mtd/devices/st_spi_fsm.c: { "s25fl256s1", 0x010219, 0x4d01, 64 * 1024, 512, drivers/mtd/spi-nor/spi-nor.c: { "s25fl256s1", INFO(0x010219, 0x4d01, 64 * 1024, 512, SPI_NOR_DUAL_READ | SPI_NOR_QUAD_READ) },
There seems to be some confusion as to whether to include "spansion" or not. I feel it should be included.
The problem is that in U-Boot at present this compatible string does not affect any behaviour. We still scan the chip to figure out its type from its ID. Do you want to add a .data value for it, and skip the probing, or are you just trying to trigger the driver to bind?
