Hi all,

 

I have a custom board having iMX6q processor and i am using Ltib L3.0.35_4.1.0

 

i have a Weimnor connected to it, at the base address 0x08000000.

 

I am able to read and write to it using memtools. However when i write try reading the same memory location using QT application,  it gives me a Segmentation fault.

 

I guess it does not allow me to access the location. Can anyone suggest how i can read the Weim Nor flash using the Qt?

 

I have attached the Qt code.

 

Help would be appreciated.

 

regards,

nishad

The NOR flash should be probed under /dev/mtdx block. In order to read/write in userspace you should open a file descriptor that points to the correct node and then perform read/write operations into the NOR flash: For example:

cat  file.bin > /dev/mtd0
