OK, I thought it's similar to SST25L.
Can't we detect this through cfi_flash framework?
No, it is not possible.
Sorry, please add some details why it couldn't?
The embedded flash in stm32 is not cfi flash. Cfi tables to find the flash
characteristics are not implemented.
OK, all your saying that this not quite exactly a cfi, different kind wrt sst32. true?
Yes, flash is embedded in the stm32 micro & details like data width etc are not relevant for the user. Sst32 ? , sorry but I am not aware of it and sst32L.
then please convert this into MTD driver model format.
If needed take an example of existing MTD uclass driver.
Can you please point me to it ?
The board your using with this driver has fdt and dm support?
If so, it is quite straight forward, take an example of this drivers/mtd/altera_qspi.c
- register with MTD_UCLASS - add your erase/write and read ops through mtd_ops
