Hello All: Thanks a lot for the prompt answers, unlike this e-mail. I've been off from the office since my post, so sorry for it. I now notice I failed to provide sufficient details about the issue at discussion. The flash uses is a 16bit data width, but it is connected using just 8 bit

Raúl, I posted a patch that does take the bus and chip width into account a short while ago. Anyway, if your flash is 8 bit, then your bus must be 8 bits wide. It is not clear whether you have two 8 bit flashes in parallel to form a 16 bit flash. Nico Hello all: I have noticed some issu

Hello all: I have noticed some issues on CFI flash driver related to chip and bus width affecting read and writes. The system I'm dealing with is based on a Vitesse switch chip which embeds an ARM926ejs processor. It additionally provides RAM and flash controller. In this case we are us
