When i use uboot boot linux, uboot read nand zimage, the speed of operation is very low !

U-Boot 2019.04 (Sep 02 2021 - 10:10:49 +0800)

CPU: Freescale i.MX6ULL rev1.0 528 MHz (running at 396 MHz)
CPU: Industrial temperature grade (-40C to 105C) at 47C
Reset cause: POR
Model: Freescale i.MX6 ULL 14x14 EVK Board
Board: MX6ULL 14x14 EVK
DRAM: 256 MiB
NAND: 256 MiB
In: serial
Out: serial
Err: serial
Normal Boot
Hit any key to stop autoboot: 0

NAND read: device 0 offset 0x500000, size 0x500000
5242880 bytes read: OK

It takes 5 seconds to read zimage data, no file system.

How to solve it?

Best regards

Is there any way to read zimage less than 1 second? The zimage file is only 5M, NAND is Micron  SLC.

Hi Abnerle

 

reason may be that nand has many bad blocks, so recommended to try fresh nand part and

latest nxp linux releases
