Seems like your SPI NOR reset logic is buggy. Does any of [1] apply to
your
board please?
[1] http://www.rocketboards.org/foswiki/Documentation/SocBoardQspiBoot
Yes. This seems to be that case. But I can't change it right now. So this
"solution" with the soft-reset is better than nothing.
If this is some think that must require, any possibility to this
resetting prior to u-boot?
like preloader or in first stage boot loader or something.
Perhaps I was not clear with the intention of this patch. Its more to
show how the problem with SPI flash on this platform / board (SoCrates
in this case) can be solved. So that others have a reference. Thats why
I marked it as RFC. Its not really meant for inclusion into mainline.
The real solution is a board rework. If not possible, the preloader
should be changed. As I don't have access to the preloader code right
now, this "solution" (I know, its more a hack) didn't seem too bad.
I feel this is mostly a kind of hardware treat, and looks like it's
touching generic sf framework
which is not so good.
Full ack on this. So please don't pull in into mainline.
Thanks,
Stefan
