This patch-series enables u-boot to be booted from SPI-NAND memory on sunxi SoCs. Development was done and tested on a sun8i V3s.
To accomplish this, the changes where split in 4 different patches. The following list describes the patches, their title, their message ID and contain their commit-message.
1) mach-sunxi: Refactor sunxi SPI-SPL 2b893c4d-6657-364e-6d17-18903cda6cf0@bamkrs.de
The core functions to use the SPI are shared between nor and nand. However, the logic on how to load data is entirely different. Therefore it should be clever to split, core, NOR and NAND in their respective files. Further, SPI-NAND boot isn’t that popular (for good reasons) and only very few sunxi SoCs are capable of doing so. Most of the time only one is used and the other would unnecessary bloat the (very limited) SPL. Thus it would be much more readable and maintainable if those are split in multiple files and distinct functions instead of a lot of #ifdef or similar.
This patch splits the sunxi SPI-SPL in its two components: - SUNXI-SPI-Handling (spl_spi_sunxi.c) - SPI-NOR with SPI-NOR-SPL-Logic (spl_spi_sunxi_nor.c)
For this, the SPL got moved in its own subdirectory. This prepares the SPL to support more then just SPI-NOR.
2) mach-sunxi: V3s SPI-SPL e25a756f-384f-16e4-180a-0ed95ddcc192@bamkrs.de The Kconfig files were missing the V3s entirely for SPI booting.
This patch adds support for the Allwinner V3s to SPL_SPI_SUNXI (nothing changed code-wise, only Kconfig).
3) mach-sunxi: Configurable SPI clockdivider in SPL 4a692eb1-6019-bd1f-592c-3e3c8fceb036@bamkrs.de U-Boot uses a fixed clock divider for the SPI to mimic the BROM. However, most of the time its perfectly fine to use a higher clock rate to speed up the boot process.
This patch adds a configurable spi clockdivider. In the original version, the divider is set to /4 to mimic the BROMs behaviour. However, in many cases this can be changed to /2 or no divider at all to speed up the booting process.
4) mach-sunxi: Add SPI-NAND SPL-Support 2274fef3-d5b0-59c9-60c2-ae4c0965c381@bamkrs.de In the last patch, the actual SPI-NAND-SPL is added.
This patch uses the refactored sunxi SPI-SPL driver from the previous patches of this series to add support for SPL booting from SPI-NAND. SPI-NAND-Boot is supported by, at least, the V3s.
