[U-Boot] OpenNand Support?

[U-Boot] OpenNand Support?

[Mahavir Prasad]

Hello All,

We are using MT29F32G08CBABAWP on our board. I would like to know whether
the OpenNand interface is already supported in U-Boot?

Also, could you please let me know where I can find more information to
write OpenNand Interface driver for U-Boot?

Thanks and Regards,
Mahavir

ONFI should be properly supported once we sync up with Linux's NAND
code.  There was a patchset to do this posted recently by Christian
Hitz, though there are some minor things that need addressing before the
patchset can be applied.

Thanks for the reply. Is the item in priority for U-Boot maintainers? Can I
expect it to be
integrated with the main tree sometime in near future? Or should I start
with the ONFI patches?

Thanks and Regards,

I hope that Christian -- or someone else, maybe you? :-) -- will respin
the patchset based on the feedback given.  If not, I may do so
eventually, but I do have other tasks not related to U-Boot that are
demanding my time at the moment.

Hello Scott,

I will start looking into the patch set. If I am successful with it then I
will definitely want to contribute it back.

Thanks and Regards,
Mahavir
