[U-Boot] [PATCH 1/2] configs: igep: Define default mtdids/mtdparts

[U-Boot] [PATCH 1/2] configs: igep: Define default mtdids/mtdparts

[Boris Brezillon]

We are trying to get rid of the weak board_mtdparts_default() function
and we need to make sure igep defconfigs have proper proper
CONFIG_MTD{IDS,PARTS}_DEFAULT before doing that.

[U-Boot] [PATCH 2/2] mtd: Get rid of board_mtdparts_default()

[Boris Brezillon]

The only implementer of this function has been patched to use
CONFIG_MTD{IDS,PARTS}_DEFAULT instead. Let's get rid of this function
and the associated CONFIG_SYS_MTDPARTS_RUNTIME option.

[U-Boot] [PATCH 2/2] mtd: Get rid of board_mtdparts_default()

[Ladislav Michl]

Hi Boris,

On Mon, Dec 10, 2018 at 04:38:50PM +0100, Boris Brezillon wrote:

the only implementer of this fuction did so for a good reason. What is
a motivation to remove it?

The requirement is to be able to use single u-boot binary on all igep2
boards ever produced. These comes with various NAND and OneNAND chips
and  I was not able to come with single static partition configuration
to support them all. Hence runtime detection. That code could be used
on all OMAP3 boards as BootROM reads up to first four sectors searching
for SPL (MLO).

Thank you,
	ladis

Simplifying the code (see this discussion [1] which led me to send
this patchset).

That's actually the question I asked Enric in [1]. Can you list all
the memory organization you have (for NAND and OneNAND chips)? I mean,
the SPL part size depends on the NAND/OneNAND erase block size, and
board vendors try to use similar flashes when they source different
parts (same page size, same block size, ...). Assuming this is the
case, you should always have the same layout for OneNAND/NAND devices,
hence my proposal to define those parts statically.

Note that, for the nand side of things, you can also automate that using
a u-boot script:

nand info; setexpr splsize ${nand_erasesize} * 4; setenv mtdparts mtdparts=omap2-nand:0x${splsize}(SPL),-(UBI)

Shouldn't be hard to patch the onenand cmd to also expose writesize,
erasesize and oobsize.

Boris

Thank you, makes sense.

First, thanks to Enric for pinging me, otherwise I would probably miss this
completely.

Now problem is that IGEPv2 comes with quite many configurations, some of
them are even customized, so static configuration is a show stopper
mainly as I do not know what devices are in field.
Another issue is how ubispl code works: It expects struct ubispl_info
filled with (among others) peb_offset of ubi partition. ubispl code counts
in terms of eraseblocks regardless of their size. So we would need to touch
this number when using static mtdparts.

That seems as a way to go!

Side note: I never fully understand why is OneNAND using separate set of
commands.

Could you hold merging your paches until I implement above idea and test
it on a few boards? I know u-boot is now using two months merge window,
which is unfortunate, so I'll try to do it as soon as possible, but I do
not think I'll finish it till end of week.

Glad you like this idea.

Hehe. That's exactly what Miquel tries to address with the mtd command
(one command to rule them all).

No worries. This is not urgent and can definitely wait 2019.04.

Yes, will be good if we can have the Ladis work merged at the same
time. He will probably have more variety of boards than me to test
this, but from my side, and after do some tests the patch LGTM
