The mtd nand does support this feature, it has @select_chip() hook. We can enable/disable the clock in the @select_chip(). But the mtd NOR does _not_ supports it. Please read the /drivers/mtd/maps/physmap_of.c and /drivers/mtd/chips/cfi_cmd_set_xxx.c. Of course, we can add the feature to NOR subsystem. But that's another issue. So the weim should enable the clock all the time now. > I guess it would also make sense to use of_platform_populate() instead > of of_platform_device_create() when creating the children, so we actually I tried the of_platform_populate(), but failed. firstly, we should set the timing for the device _before_ we do the of_platform_populate(). and i rewrite the weim_parse_dt() to: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ static void weim_parse_dt(struct platform_device *pdev) { struct device_node *child; for_each_child_of_node(pdev->dev.of_node, child) { if (!child->name) continue; if (weim_timing_setup(pdev, child)) { dev_err(&pdev->dev, "%s set timing failed.\n", child->full_name); continue; } } if (!of_platform_populate(pdev->dev.of_node, NULL, NULL, &pdev->dev)) dev_err(&pdev->dev, "%s device create failed.\n", child->full_name); } ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The system hang at : +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ ## Booting kernel from Legacy Image at 10800000 ...
