I have made some progress, but it's not ideal. Currently I've hacked the GPMC DT driver (gpmc_probe_dt(), etc) so it now handles setting up the chip selects and timings for NOR devices, e.g. gpmc: gpmc@50000000 { status = "okay"; ranges = <0 0 0x08000000 0x08000000>; /* CS0: NOR 16M */ nor@0,0 { compatible = "spansion,s29gl064n90t", "cfi-flash"; reg = <0 0 0>; bank-width = <2>; gpmc,sync-clk = <0>; gpmc,cs-on = <10>; gpmc,cs-rd-off = <150>; gpmc,cs-wr-off = <150>; gpmc,adv-on = <10>; gpmc,adv-rd-off = <10>; gpmc,adv-wr-off = <10>; gpmc,oe-on = <30>; gpmc,oe-off = <150>; gpmc,we-on = <30>; gpmc,we-off = <150>; gpmc,rd-cycle = <150>; gpmc,wr-cycle = <150>; gpmc,access = <130>; gpmc,page-burst-access = <10>; gpmc,cycle2cycle-diff = <1>; gpmc,cycle2cycle-same = <1>; gpmc,cycle2cycle-delay = <10>; gpmc,wr-data-mux-bus = <60>; }; }; But the physmap driver (of_flash_probe()) is unable to use this information. It seems that although I can call of_flash_probe() from my NOR setup code, the platform_device being reference is wrong. The platform_device passed to my gpmc_probe_nor_child() routine from gpmc_probe_dt() points to my gpmc entry (above), but the physmap probe requires its own DT entry (rather than a node child such as my NOR entry with the GPMC device entry). So I need to have any extra entry in the DT file as follows:- nor-flash@08000000 { compatible = "spansion,s29gl064n90t", "cfi-flash"; reg = <0x08000000 0x00800000>; bank-width = <2>; }; So the GPMC entry handles all the chip select and timing setup, but the 2nd entry is the only one the physmap driver can see. Would it be acceptable to re-code of_flash_probe() to allow either a child device_node to be passed or a platform_device ? Cheers Mark J.
