Thanks Machael.

On my flash data sheet, there are some command about security:

Lock Block | Block Address | 0060h | Block Address | 0001h
Unlock Block|Block Address| 0060h | Block Address | 00d0h

So I guess it needs two write cycle to perfomr the command, and the unlock command should be 006000d0. I tried that but still get the same error. Bad! :(

Another questions is that is there any way to change CPU register directy? For 8343E all registers are mapped to 1m starting from 0xff400000. I want to change on 0Xff400c08, but visionclick reject me to write on that address.

I must be lonely, responding to my own email :-).

The other option you have is re-build u-boot to run from ram (presumably
at some lower address), then use u-boot itself to clear the write
protect bits on your flash.  U-boot's makefile has config targets for
ram & flash for some target boards which you may be able to take
advantage of.  My first solution is probably still quicker if you're not
trying to debug u-boot itself.
