So for non-dm case, sf probe and sf info does same?
For non-dm case, sf info only show the information store in the current struct spi_flash, sf_probe will re-probe the SPI flash and create a new struct spi-flash.
How could it be, in non-dm case sf probe will detect the flash and print the info from drivers/mtd/spi/sf_probe.c So sf probe every-time will re-identify the device and print the info.
I approve of what you said. We don't have divergence about the difference between "sf probe" and "sf info". I just want to emphasize that "sf probe" re-identify the device, create a new "spi_flash" and print the info, "sf info" only print the current info.
BTW: regarding this patch, unlike any command in u-boot (for my understanding) sf probe has a run-time capable detection option based on bus:cs hz mode from user. So it better to skip the re-identify the same fitlash if the flash is identified before in sf probe logic and try to print the info in it instead of going another stale command just by doing print using earlier commands settings (sf probe).
I think we get to a common view that it is unnecessary to re-identify the device if it has been identified. Divergence is that you think this should be completed through updating the sf probe logic and I think we should add the new command "sf info". "sf info" resolves the problem in a more simpler way. User will be more clearly about the functions of the sf commands if we add a new command "sf info". From the literal meaning of the command "sf probe" should identify the device and the command "sf info" show the information of current device.
Yes, I agree that 'sf info' simply show the current device info in a simpler way. But, being with my previous statement it simply print the info which is derived from 'sf probe' So why should we go and do the same thing in 'sf probe' with increasing one more command which does part of same as before.
Yes, 'sf probe' is doing unnecessary re-identify the device so may be we can fix that, ie going to be a real fix other than adding new command.
Please think in that direction, adding new command in u-boot is really a big step to think in whole u-boot development point of view.
Fine, I will only enable this command in DM model.

OK.
