Cover letter [U-Boot] [PATCH v3 0/4] sunxi: nand: Basic NAND driver for SPL

Hi,

Hi,

I've not done sunxi development for a while. So I need to ask you guys about some details. I hope you don't mind. Please see questions below.

I've merged patches 1 - 3 in my sunxi-wip branch, and I'll include them in the next u-boot-sunxi pull-req.

Shouldn't we at least wait for Scoot's approval?

Or Scott's. :-)

Thanks.

Okay, this driver SPL NAND is now integrated in mainline. Great.

But how about NAND support for the main U-Boot (load Linux from NAND etc.)? It seems to be missing. Is somebody working on this?

Yes, see:

Whats the current status here?

We want to use the Linux kernel code for the main U-Boot, which is not fully upstream yet (and will likely not be for a while) as it needs per partition config (ecc / scrambler) settings, as well as merging of scrambler support into the upstream kernel first.

We will likely have a u-boot branch with this working soon-ish, but getting this merged is a different story.

Regards,

Hans
