Hi Lukasz,

Up till now the CRC32 of received data was calculated unconditionally. The standard crc32 implementation causes long delays when large images were uploaded.
The "dfu_checksum_method" environment variable gives the opportunity to enable on demand (when e.g. debugging) the crc32 calculation. It can be done without need to recompile the u-boot binary.
By default the crc32 is not calculated.
Tests results: 400 MiB ums.img file With crc32 calculation: 65 sec [avg 6.29 MB/s] Without crc32 calculation: 25 sec [avg 16.17 MB/s]
That's interesting; I'm surprised that there's so much difference. Can we get some info about the environment? I.e. board, whether cache is enabled etc.
Board Exynos4412 - Trats2. Cache L1 enabled, cache L2 disabled.
Crc32 is calculated for 32 MiB chunks of data in the received buffer. I'm using the standard software crc32 u-boot's implementation. It is the same as the one for perl-crc32 debian package.
Thanks for the report. Would it be too much to ask for the time it takes to do a crc32 of the same image on user-space after boot?
I'm interested in the effect the disabling of L2 has.
The crc table is per byte and I guess lookups maybe expensive.
It seems so. Moreover the Exynos4412 has HW crypto engine which supports SHA1, MD5 and other algorithms. Unfortunately it doesn't provide speedup for crc32.
You could do a basic tradeoff of speed vs memory by creating larger tables but it might not work if we're cache trashing.
Or even try using CRC with smaller tables (i.e. 4 bits) which would not affect the cache much.
