Subject: [PATCH 19/23] mtd: st_spi_fsm: Add a check to if the chip can handle an SoC reset
Date: Fri, 22 Nov 2013 16:22:56 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1385137380-28968-20-git-send-email-lee.jones@linaro.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1385137380-28968-1-git-send-email-lee.jones@linaro.org>

Based on information we can obtain though platform specific data and/or
chip capabilities we are able to determine whether or not we can handle
a SoC reset or not. To find out why this is important please read the
comment provided in the patch.

+ * SoC reset on 'boot-from-spi' systems
+ *
+ * Certain modes of operation cause the Flash device to enter a particular state
+ * for a period of time (e.g. 'Erase Sector', 'Quad Enable', and 'Enter 32-bit
+ * Addr' commands).  On boot-from-spi systems, it is important to consider what
+ * happens if a warm reset occurs during this period.  The SPIBoot controller
+ * assumes that Flash device is in its default reset state, 24-bit address mode,
+ * and ready to accept commands.  This can be achieved using some form of
+ * on-board logic/controller to force a device POR in response to a SoC-level
+ * reset or by making use of the device reset signal if available (limited
+ * number of devices only).
+ *
+ * Failure to take such precautions can cause problems following a warm reset.
+ * For some operations (e.g. ERASE), there is little that can be done.  For
+ * other modes of operation (e.g. 32-bit addressing), options are often
+ * available that can help minimise the window in which a reset could cause a
+ * problem.
