This patch set refactors mxc_spi as described in

    http://lists.denx.de/pipermail/u-boot/2010-March/068791.html
and requested in 
    http://lists.denx.de/pipermail/u-boot/2012-January/116023.html

in order to add support for the MX6Q in general and the mx6qsabrelite specifically.

Patch 1 simply moves the conditional parts of mxc_spi.c into the respective CPU-specific imx-regs.h files.

Patch 2 adds general support for SPI to the i.MX6.

Patch 3 adds support to the mx6qsabrelite board

Patch 4 modifies the 'sf' command to allow a default chip-select to be specified by board headers as is done on efika et al. This allows a bare 'sf' probe command:
U-Boot> sf probe
instead of the more cumbersome usage when a GPIO is tacked onto the chip-select. Otherwise, this command-line would be needed to specify GP3:19 on SabreLite:

     U-Boot> sf probe 0x5300   

Patch 5 adds default chip-select values for mx6qsabrelite platform.

Patch 6 adds reference macros for use in storing the environment in serial flash to match the use on Freescale's U-Boot release

This patch set has been compiled against the following configurations, but only tested on mx6qsabrelite:

	mx6qsabrelite
	mx51evk
	mx31pdk
	mx35pdk
#1 lore raw

PATCH 1/6 mxc_spi: move machine specifics into CPU headers

Move (E)CSPI register declarations into the imx-regs.h files for each supported CPU

Introduce two new macros to control conditional setup
MXC_CSPI - Used for processors with the Configurable Serial Peripheral Interface (MX3x) MXC_ECSPI - For processors with Enhanced Configurable... (MX5x, MX6x)

All i.MX6's

This is a cut & paste from MX51.

I was tempted to introduce an 'mxc_ecspi.h' to merge the declaration for i.MX5x and i.MX6 which share the ECSPI peripheral and 'mxc_cspi.h' for i.MX31 and i.MX35 that share the CSPI peripheral.

But you don't even need this outside of the spi driver so just put it into the spi driver and be done with it. That'll solve your duplication issue.

Right - and we already discussed in the past how to avoid to put specific SOC code inside the driver. In fact, the cspi_regs structure was already moved into the specific SOC header (imx-regs.h) - but the definitions of the single bits of the registers are still inside the driver, as well as the base address of the (e)cspi controllers.

They should also be moved - take into acoount by implementing your changes for i.mx6

The struct cspi_regs is already present in mx31, mx35, and mx51 headers, so I'm not breaking new ground here, only in the bitfield declarations.

My interpretation of Stefano's intent is to clean up the driver at the expense of extra defines in the arch-specific headers.

Almost, but not quite: mx31 and mx35 both use the CSPI peripheral and have one layout. mx5 and mx6 have the ECSPI peripheral, which has an extra register "cfg" to control the polarity and phase of the signals.

Actually, that comment is wrong. The MX51 and MX53 have **both** CSPI and ECSPI peripherals, but the existing code in mxc_spi only supports ECSPI.

The bitfields that my patches move into the imx-regs.h files are also almost identical.

The layout of the CSPI registers is not exactly the same for all SOCs. For example, the MXC_CSPICTRL_TC has a different position, as well as the BITCOUNT (because the MX31 can send less bits in one shot) and MXC_CSPICTRL_CHIPSELECT.

So they are similar, but not exactly the same.

Then we have the MX5 registers. Even if we check the CSPI (not eCSPI) controller, the layout of the registers is different compared to the MX3 SOCs.

Quoted 2 lines

The struct cspi_regs is already present in mx31, mx35, and mx51 headers, so I'm not breaking new ground here, only in the bitfield declarations.

Right, I see the same. The cspi_regs structure is already defined into the imx_regs.h, only the bit layout was moved. And as the bit layout is SOC dependent, I think the right place for it is inside the imx-regs.h registers.

Quoted 3 lines

My interpretation of Stefano's intent is to clean up the driver at the expense
of extra defines in the arch-specific headers.

Yes, you're right - of course, I am open also to other solutions if they are proofed to be better ;-).

Best regards,
Stefano

Is this part common for all imx-es ?

All i.MX6's

This is a cut& paste from MX51.

I was tempted to introduce an 'mxc_ecspi.h' to merge the declaration for i.MX5x and i.MX6 which share the ECSPI peripheral and 'mxc_cspi.h' for i.MX31 and i.MX35 that share the CSPI peripheral.

But you don't even need this outside of the spi driver so just put it into the
spi driver and be done with it. That'll solve your duplication issue.

PATCH 2/6 mx6q: Add support for ECSPI through mxc_spi driver

Quoted 2 lines · Marek Vasut

Ok guys, I see ... Stefano, you're ok with putting the reg structures into these header files?

The reg structures are already into these header files - the patch moves only the bit meaning inside the imx-regs.h files. We can discuss if we should move them again into the driver, making the decision on which structure to be used not on a SOC level (#ifdef CONFIG_MXxx), but on basis of the controller type (CSPI or ECSPI).

This makes sense if we run (we had until now no use case with the currently supported boards) a MX5 board using a CSPI instead of a ECSPI. In this case, we should also transform MXC_CSPI / MXC_ECSPI in a CONFIG_ define to be put in the board configuration file.

However, as usual in u-boot, dead code or code that has no use case and cannot be tested is not allowed. Until we have not such a board (MX5 board requiring CSPI instead of ECSPI), we should avoid to introduce not tested code and let those changes for a next patch.

Yes, you're right - of course, I am open also to other solutions if they are proofed to be better ;-).

I think this is about as good as things get with the current code base. I would argue that the driver would be better if it explicitly supported ECSPI and CSPI at the same time since the mx5x CPUs support it.

Implememting that would likely require a de-structuring (removing the use of structs to represent the register set). IOW, a re-write.

That's probably not worth the effort unless someone's built hardware that needs it (I'm not aware of any).

On our boards that use more than one channel of SPI (for PMIC and SF), we're using ECSPI on both. I think the same was true on the MX51 EVK.

I think this is about as good as things get with the current code base. I would argue that the driver would be better if it explicitly supported ECSPI and CSPI at the same time since the mx5x CPUs support it.

This means that the driver goes to support multiple interfaces at the same time, independently if they are CSPI or ECSPI. At the moment, there is no use case for it.

Yes, this is also for most drivers in u-boot to support multiple interface and not only one.

The SPI driver can take as chip select the controller's chip selects as well as an external GPIO. The LSB byte has the value of the internal chip select, the highest (thought as 16-bit value) contains the GPIO number. Reading this configuration, the GPIO used on this board should be the number 83 (0x53).

From the commit log, it says the default is in serial flash, but apparently in the code the env is default to MMC, which mismatch. please fix it.

You're asking that I change the comment not the default, right?

I'm wondering how the CONFIG_ENV_SPI_CS could be 0x5300? Vague?

Please review the updated patch below and see whether the expanded commit message fixes things.

mx6q: mx6qsabrelite: Provide macros for environment in serial flash

The default settings store the persistent environment on SD card and not serial flash (SPI NOR).

To use SPI NOR to save the environment instead of SD card, edit include/configs/mx6qsabrelite.h and

- undefine CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_MMC
- define CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_SPI_FLASH

Note that the mxc_spi driver (drivers/spi/mxc_spi.c) uses the Chip-Select variable (CONFIG_ENV_SPI_CS) to allow the use of a GPIO if the chip-select is greater than 3. The low 8-bits set the chip select number and bits 8-15 set the GPIO number.

The GPIO used on Sabre Lite is GP3:19 == 83.

This patch set refactors mxc_spi as described in

    http://lists.denx.de/pipermail/u-boot/2010-March/068791.html
and requested in
    http://lists.denx.de/pipermail/u-boot/2012-January/116023.html

in order to add support for the MX6Q in general and the mx6qsabrelite specifically.

Patch 1 simply moves the conditional parts of mxc_spi.c into the respective CPU-specific imx-regs.h files.

Patch 2 adds general support for SPI to the i.MX6.

Patch 3 adds support to the mx6qsabrelite board

Patch 4 modifies the 'sf' command to allow a default chip-select to be specified by board headers as is done on efika et al. This allows a bare 'sf' probe command:
U-Boot> sf probe
instead of the more cumbersome usage when a GPIO is tacked onto the chip-select. Otherwise, this command-line would be needed to specify GP3:19 on SabreLite:

     U-Boot> sf probe 0x5300

Patch 5 adds default chip-select values for mx6qsabrelite platform.

Patch 6 adds reference macros for use in storing the environment in serial flash to match the use on Freescale's U-Boot release

This patch set has been compiled against the following configurations, but only tested on mx6qsabrelite:

	mx6qsabrelite
	mx51evk
	mx31pdk
	mx35pdk

Muhehehe ... time for a little review-torture :-)
