Re: [RFC PATCH 1/2] spi: Add QuadSPI driver for Atmel SAMA5D2

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi, Piotr,

General things to consider for the limitation in performance:
- is the serial flash memory operating in Quad SPI?
- QSCLK should be as high as possible
- transfer delays - I checked them, they have default values, we should be good.
- use DMA, as you suggested

This driver will be a conversion of the legacy one to the spi-mem interface. I
would keep the legacy copyright and add Cryptera's below, as Boris suggested.

We have to wait for both INSTRE and CSR.
