In principle, yes, this configuration can be considered platform-specific and moving it this way of course works. But: 1. The patch comment is not correct. This code doesn't select between NAND and OneNAND. It selects between (one of) NANDs and SROMs. 2. While at it, we could fix the value being written to the MEM_SYS_CFG register too. Currently it writes 0xd = (1 << 0) - ignored, default 0, so, better set it to 0 | (0 << 1) - set Xm0CSn[2] to OneNANDC CS0 or NFCON CS0 | (1 << 2) - ignored, default 0, so, better set it to 0 | (1 << 3) - set Xm0CSn[3] to SROMC CS3 So, we should just write an 8 in it: + mov r1, #0x8 + str r1, [r0] 3. The comment in the code doesn't look right. According to the above it should read + /* Xm0CSn[2] = OneNANDC CS0 or NFCON CS0, Xm0CSn[3] = SROMC CS3 */ The only thing that confuses me, is why the author, belonging to the manufacturer of the chip, hasn't done this. Maybe the documentation is wrong? I tested it with the "8" - it works. So, once the issues are fixed, you get my "Tested-by", although, I guess, you can test it just as well:-) Thanks Guennadi > bl mem_ctrl_asm_init > > /* Wakeup support.

As you know mem_ctrl_asm_init is common code and other boards can use it without board specific codes. In OneNAND board, it should be set as 0x1002 > > The only thing that confuses me, is why the author, belonging to the > manufacturer of the chip, hasn't done this.

In the datasheet this signal is called XSELNAND. And I don't think we have to quote this in the comment. This is a hardware configuration issue, not software, and we are not explaining the complete NAND configuration here, otherwise we would have to mention OM signals too, maybe more. > As you know mem_ctrl_asm_init is common code and other boards can use > it without board specific codes. > > In OneNAND board, it should be set as 0x1002 Sorry, do not understand what "it." If you mean the MEM_SYS_CFG then I also don't understand this. As I quoted from the datasheet above, bit 1 set to 0 (0 << 1) is for _both_ - NAND or OneNAND. You suggest to set it to 1, which is SROMC CS2. And (1 << 12) is the data bus width, which also doesn't seem to be directly related to the NAND / OneNAND selection. Or did you mean another register?

Hey, actually I do think that describing which hardware configurations the software performs is a Good Thing (TM). I do NOT want to have to look up each and every bit in the reference manual when reading the source code.

Exactly, "which hardware configurations the software performs", XSELNAND is not performed in software, this is just a pin you wire high or low on your board.

Even if the signal is defined by the hardware dsign - the very moment I am referencing this signal in any piece of software I should explain it so the reader of the code understands what I'm doing. Using meaningful names instead of magic numbers is a minimum to do.

I don't think this pin is referenced in software, at least not in this register, AFAICS. The only reason why Kyungmin mentioned it and why it is mentioned in the datasheet in the description of this register, is that this pin defines the selection between NAND and OneNAND - along with some other pins (OM[4:1] or some such). So, you cannot set this pin in software, you cannot read this pin in software (I think), maybe you have to switch a jumper when selecting another configuration, but that again has little to do with software, IMHO.
