Hi Sourav,
Please place these these readme files in doc/SPI/* All these patches tested on top of u-boot-spi.git master-probe?

These test procedure steps were done in real hw. Seems like written once, could be generic if you test these steps on real hw and palce the same log here...
+For #2, set sysboot to QSPI-1 boot mode(SYSBOOT[5:0] = 100110) and power +on. ROM should find the GP header at offset 0 and load/execute SPL. SPL +then detects that ROM was in QSPI-1 mode (boot code 10) and attempts to +find a U-Boot image header at offset 0x20000 (set in the config file) +and proceeds to load that image using the U-Boot image payload offset/size +from the header. It will then start U-Boot. diff --git a/doc/README.ti_qspi_flash b/doc/README.ti_qspi_flash new file mode 100644 index 0000000..1b86d01 --- /dev/null +++ b/doc/README.ti_qspi_flash @@ -0,0 +1,47 @@ +QSPI U-boot support +------------------
+Host processor is connected to serial flash device via qpsi +interface. QSPI is a kind of spi module that allows single, +dual and quad read access to external spi devices. The module +has a memory mapped interface which provide direct interface +for accessing data form external spi devices.
+The one QSPI in the device is primarily intended for fast booting +from Quad SPI flash devices.
+Usecase +-------
+MLO/u-boot.img will be flashed from SD/MMC to the flash device +using serial flash erase and write commands. Then, switch settings +will be changed to qspi boot. Then, the ROM code will read MLO +from the predefined location in the flash, where it was flashed and +execute it after storing it in SDRAM. Then, the MLO will read +u-boot.img from flash and execute it from SDRAM.
+SPI mode +------- +SPI mode uses mtd spi framework for transfer and reception of data. +Can be used in: +1. Normal mode: use single pin for transfers +2. Dual Mode: use two pins for transfers. +3. Quad mode: use four pin for transfer
+Memory mapped read mode +----------------------- +In this, SPI controller is configured using configuration port and then +controler is switched to memory mapped port for data read.
+Driver +------ +drivers/qspi/ti_qspi.c
- Newly created file which is responsible for configuring the
qspi controller and also for providing the low level api which
is responsible for transferring the datas from host controller
to flash device and vice versa.
+Testing +------- +A seperated file named README.dra_qspi_test has been created which gives all the
+details about the commands required to test qspi at u-boot level.
