In U-boot I am not seeing the support for Spansion S29GL512P NOR flash.
This chip is CFI compliant so I believe the common CFI driver should work with this chip.
Does U-boot supports S29GL512P NOR flash or I have to implement the functionality to support S29GL512P?
If anyone has tried with S29GL512P NOR flash please share the experiecne.
This chip is currently supported by the common CFI NOR FLASH driver. So it should just work for your board as well.
Cheers, Stefan

Hi Stefan,
I am Balaji. am using IMX6 base custom board. In my board am using S29GL01G NOR Flash to srore u-boot and kernel. I understand from the data sheet this NOR Flash is CFI based on. So i have added Configurations for CFI Flash driver.
Currently am loading the U-boot into DDR3 and able to excute U-boot test commands. When i put flinfo , am getting "missing or unknow flash type" and while loading the u-boot it is printing as " Unknown flash on BANK 1 - Size - 0MB". So am not sure what am missing here or i have to add anything extra in teh config file. Please request you to check and provide your suggestion.
Just to be sure: Do you use the mainline U-Boot (u-boot.imx) or the old Freescale one?
This thread talks about S29GL512P. You talk about S29GL01G?
Can you send us your flash/CFI configuration from the config file?
Which CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_BASE do you use?
Best regards
Dirk
