From 3497d43215b6919e680fefe59b38b71516adf2a0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mike Dunn Date: Tue, 18 Jun 2013 11:08:51 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] pxa: palmtreo680 flash programming utility This adds a userspace linux utility that writes the u-boot image to an mtd partition on the docg4 nand flash. A special utility is required to do this because u-boot is partially loaded by an initial program loader (IPL) that is permanently programmed to the boot region of the flash. This IPL expects the image to be written in a unique format. The characteristics of this format can be summarized as follows: - Flash blocks to be loaded must have a magic number in the oob bytes of the first page of the block. - Each page must be written redundantly in the subsequent page. - The integrated flash controller's "reliable mode" is used, requiring that alternate 2k regions (4 pages) are skipped when writing. For these reasons, a u-boot image can not be written using nandwrite from mtd-utils.
