Yogesh, Attached is the latest CY driver for linux which might help. It does not use the SFDP. We are working to see if we can update the default value of the device to 1.

In older version, there wasn't logic to check SFDP and SMPT param and hence this issue was never been caught. But with newer Linux kernel OS version, we have hit this issue. Also, presently in u-boot bootloader there is no check for SFDP and SMPT param for this flash and hence not been caught there. But, we have hit this same issue when trying to update UEFI bootloader. New UEFI bootloader is parsing SFDP param and SMPT table. IMO, as this issue is SPI-NOR flash issue, thus this would be independent of the target. We have observed this on older LS family target(LS1046ARDB) as well as on LX2 on which this flash is connected. -- Regards Yogesh Gaur > -----Original Message----- > From: James Tomasetta [mailto:James.Tomasetta@xxxxxxxxxxx] > Sent: Thursday, December 6, 2018 10:00 PM > To: Boris Brezillon <boris.brezillon@xxxxxxxxxxx>; Yong Qin > <Yong.Qin@xxxxxxxxxxx> > Cc: Yogesh Narayan Gaur <yogeshnarayan.gaur@xxxxxxx>; Tudor Ambarus > <tudor.ambarus@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>; cyrille.pitchen@xxxxxxxxxx; Jimmy Zhao > <jimmy.zhao@xxxxxxx>; linux-mtd@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > Subject: RE: SPI-NOR FS512S incorrect CR3NV[1] value > > Boris, > > Is there an issue with updating the software?
