* [PATCH] mtd: spi-nor: don't return found by JEDEC ID a non-JEDEC flash @ 2014-12-13 23:00 Vladimir Zapolskiy 2015-01-09 22:28 ` Brian Norris 0 siblings, 1 reply; 5+ messages in thread From: Vladimir Zapolskiy @ 2014-12-13 23:00 UTC (permalink / raw) To: David Woodhouse, Brian Norris, Huang Shijie, Rafał Miłecki Cc: linux-mtd In attempt to spi_nor_scan() for an expected JEDEC compliant device by reading RDID register don't return the first found non-JEDEC device entry from spi_nor_ids[] table, if RDID is zero. First of all zeroes in RDID may be evidence for not correctly working SPI, secondly empty RDID can not be used to select a particular JEDEC non-compliant device correctly. The best possible solution is * not to rely on spi_nor_read_id(), if expected device is non-JEDEC, * not to substitute an expected JEDEC device with some arbitrary chosen non-JEDEC device, if RDID is zero.

What makes this particular special case different than a system where we don't support the flash?

The difference is pretty visible, if JDID is zero, then it is known in advance that looking for a proper flash device from spi_nor_ids is fruitless and therefore can be omitted. >> Assuming that zero JEDEC ID is a relatively rare situation, do you think >> it makes sense to add a preceding check for such case before entering >> the loop like it is done in my patch? > > As long as the current driver actually fails gracefully on a zero ID, I > think we're OK without special case conditions.
