nice, thanks for that.

This seems to be the same NAND chip as on the sam9x60 curiosity, but
your output has three additional lines, see mine:
U-Boot> nand info
Device 0: nand0, sector size 256 KiB
Page size 4096 b
OOB size 256 b
Erase size 262144 b
ecc strength 8 bits
ecc step size 512 b
subpagesize 4096 b
options 0x40004200
bbt options 0x00028000
Do you have some additional patches printing manufacturer, model, and
device size? I can't see those lines printed in
nand_print_and_set_info() here.

This is also interesting. Given the mck clock rate is the same as on
sam9x60, I would have guessed the timings set by
atmel_smc_nand_prepare_smcconf() should give the same results, both
for ONFI timiming mode 3, which is the fastest mode the (H)SMC
supports according to comments in the driver. This is the output with
the patch in question applied on next for sam9x60:
U-Boot> hsmc decode
mck clock rate: 200000000
SMC_SETUP3: 0x00000002
SMC_PULSE3: 0x06030703
SMC_CYCLE3: 0x00060007
SMC_MODE3: 0x001f0003
NCS_RD: setup: 0 (0 ns), pulse: 6 (30 ns), hold: 0 (0 ns), cycle: 6 (30 ns)
NRD: setup: 0 (0 ns), pulse: 3 (15 ns), hold: 3 (15 ns), cycle: 6 (30 ns)
NCS_WR: setup: 0 (0 ns), pulse: 7 (35 ns), hold: 0 (0 ns), cycle: 7 (35 ns)
NWE: setup: 2 (10 ns), pulse: 3 (15 ns), hold: 2 (10 ns), cycle: 7 (35
ns)
Standard read is applied.
TDF optimization enabled
TDF cycles: 15 (75 ns)
Data Bus Width: 8-bit bus
NWAIT Mode: 0
Write operation controlled by NWE signal
Read operation controlled by NRD signal
Notice the pulse times for read are one clock cycle smaller than in
your output, and the timings for write are also different. Do you
have changes for atmel_smc_nand_prepare_smcconf() applied which are
not upstream yet? Or is the HSMC on sama7g54 somehow different than
on older SoCs?
Note: I'm currently testing a patch changing the computation of the
read pulse cycles based on a patch for at91bootstrap [1], but that is
not applied here for the output quoted above.
