I am not familiar with ls2081 defconfig, but it seems like CONFIG_SPI_FLASH is not enabled in ls2081ardb_defconfig due to which SPI_MEM does not be selected. Jagan had a patch to make DM_SPI_FLASH enable SPI_FLASH[2] to fix such configs. > For anyone who wants to check/test the current state, look here: [1] > That's great! > Regards, > Frieder > > [1]: https://github.com/fschrempf/u-boot/commits/fsl_qspi_spimem_port > [2] https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/1039176/ _______________________________________________ U-Boot mailing list [email protected] https://lists.denx.de/listinfo/u-boot
