The Intel ICH peripheral has this problem. I believe that writing starting from unaligned page sizes worked OK before this change. Thanks. But I am some how confusing instead of this change may be you may place the existing code as it is page_addr++; byte_addr = 0; prior to above may be you can place intel ICH per hack as other will do whole page at once, i may be wrong. The old code assumed that it could skip to the start of the next page after each write. The new code skips forward by chunk_len, which generally takes as to the start of the next page, but not always (e.g. with Intel ICH). Yes, AFAIK every other SPI driver can still do a whole page at a time, with or without this patch. Thats what if the user is giving an unaligned page size suppose 0x80 with 512 bytes (if the page_size=256) sf write 0x100 0x80 0x200 the loop will goes 2 non page_sizes and 1 pages_size like this iteration 1--- 128 iteration 2-- 256 iteration 3-- 128 I was tested the old and new code w.r.t this unaligned page_size as a start the result is same uboot sf write 0x100 0x80 0x200 actual = 0.chunk_len = 128 actual = 128.chunk_len = 256 actual = 384.chunk_len = 128 SF: program success 512 bytes @ 0x80 Means the old and new code does the same thing, but still i couldn't understand. What exactly this change is for, if it is specific to intel flash what is state in above condition. Yes it is for the Intel SPI controller which has a strange limitation that it can only write 64 bytes at a time. Regards, Simon Thanks, Jagan. May be the new code handle this situation as earlier may not have.? ___ U-Boot mailing list U-Boot@lists.denx.de http://lists.denx.de/mailman/listinfo/u-boot
