Thanks for the clarification. In case you're collecting things to clean up for the next issue, here's another :-) The Rev M OMAP35x TRM says on page 1139: "In both prefetch and write-posting modes, the engine respectivelly uses byte or Word16 access requests for an 8- or 16-bit wide NAND device attached to the linked chip-select. The FIFOTHRESHOLD and TRANSFERCOUNT fields must be programmed accordingly as a number of bytes or a number of Word16." However the register descriptions just say that FIFOTHRESHOLD and TRANSFERCOUNT are byte counts. In this case I'm going to trust the register descriptions because that's how Linux programs them (and it doesn't boot if you model them as Word16 counts...) -- PMM _______________________________________________ linaro-dev mailing list linaro-dev@lists.linaro.org http://lists.linaro.org/mailman/listinfo/linaro-dev
