Subject: [PATCH v3 2/2] mtd: spi-nor: core: avoid odd length/address writes in 8D-8D-8D mode
Date: Tue,  8 Jul 2025 17:16:46 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250708091646.292-2-ziniu.wang_1@nxp.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250708091646.292-1-ziniu.wang_1@nxp.com>

From: Pratyush Yadav <p.yadav@ti.com>

On Octal DTR capable flashes like Micron Xcella the writes cannot start
or end at an odd address in Octal DTR mode. Extra 0xff bytes need to be
appended or prepended to make sure the start address and end address are
even. 0xff is used because on NOR flashes a program operation can only
flip bits from 1 to 0, not the other way round. 0 to 1 flip needs to
happen via erases.

Changes in v3:
- remove last if (ret < 0) check, as ret always >= 0
- remove Micron manufacturers info in comments
- change nor->page_size to nor->params->page_size for latest kernel
