Hi, Wolfgang,
It's so pity that the flash got wrong 'num_erase_regions' issue is still
in u-boot 1.2.0.
The byte by byte accessing is not preferred. But the flash_read_ushort()
and flash_read_long() in drivers/cfi_flash.c are both implemented by
byte accessing. How about it?
Can the instruction '
retval = (addr[0] << 16) | (addr[(info->portwidth)] << 24) |
(addr[(2 * info->portwidth)]) | (addr[(3 *
info->portwidth)] << 8);'
In flash_read_long() be replaced by memcpy() function?
Thanks!
