Subject: [U-Boot] hardware flash protect kept during a reboot?
Date: Fri, 14 May 2010 14:33:28 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4BEDA588.8080107@freescale.com> (raw)

If I enable CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_PROTECTION and have a support flash chipset,
are my protected sectors supposed to remain protected during a reboot?

That is, if I protect some flash sector, and then reboot U-Boot, I know
U-Boot will not show the sector as being protected, because the
info->protect[] array is initialized on every boot.  However, since I was
using hardware protection, I expect the chip will still protect the sector.
