Hi again,
just found the first offending commit:
commit eff0275e5253604429aedc42b008c5fcaa6cc597
Date: Wed Oct 31 11:57:06 2018 +0100
spi: rockchip: simplify use_dma logic
We only need to know if we're using dma when setting
up the transfer, so just use a local variable for
that.
It was mainlined in Linux v5.0.

Hi,
i have been experiencing issues writing to NOR-Flash SPI Memories
from two RK3399-based platforms: gru-kevin and sapphire board.
For kevin, this resulted in a bricked device because that memory
is the only boot device.
Fortunately an external programmer is available.
In order to isolate where the issue can be, several tests have been
done, after which it makes me think the issue is related to the
Rockchip SPI driver.
4KB burst reads work fine.
The issue is only observed on the write burst length.

3, 4) Unaccetably slow, device tree is
spi_gpio {
compatible = "spi-gpio";
#address-cells = <1>;
#size-cells = <0>;
cs-gpios = <&gpio1 RK_PB2 GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH>;

compatible = "spidev";
reg = <0>;
spi-max-frequency = <50000000>;
};
};
2, 5, 6, 7, 8) device tree is
&spi1 {
status = "okay";
spidev@0 {
compatible = "spidev";
reg = <0>;
spi-max-frequency = <50000000>;
};
};
5, 6, 7, 8) Burst writes are performed this way
enum { BURST = 48 };
struct spi_ioc_transfer msg[0x105];
unsigned i = 0;
for (unsigned j = 0; j < wcnt; j += BURST) {
msg[i++] = { .tx_buf = warr, .len = BURST<wcnt-j ? BURST : wcnt-j };
warr += BURST;
}
if (rcnt)
msg[i++] = { .rx_buf = rarr, .len = rcnt };
ioctl(fd, SPI_IOC_MESSAGE(i), msg);
1, 2, 5, 8) I have no logic analyzer to see what is happenning on the
SPI bus, but when it fails at 48-byte bursts, the contents of the memory
are like this:
