winbond qspi boot question

[qiangdaemon]

My board is iMX6UL EVK。
We can use the onboard QSPI NOR flash(N25Q256A) to boot up linux。
We found 3 config files for 3 NOR flash under MFG tool files。
qspi-nor-macronix-mx25l51245g-config
qspi-nor-micron-n25q256a-config
qspi-nor-spansion-s25fl128s-config
We need to make qspi-nor-winbond-w25q128bv-config .Mainly to modify the LUT part。
And now we need to use another QSPI NOR flash(W25Q128BV/W25Q256) to bringup the system。

My soft environment:"yocto 4.1.15-1.0.0"
Mfgtool:"L4.1.15-1.0.0_ga-mfg-tools"
I found a reference doc "MX6UL_Development_qspi-norflash-boot.doc"
I add qspi-nor-winbond-w25q128bv-config ,modify kernel-mfgtool-source,modify uboot-source code.You can view the patch kernel and uboot attachment。but it didnot boot?

There are two question,I confuse about qspi-nor-macronix-mx25l51245g-config and qspi-nor-micron-n25q256a-config different
(1)what different w25q128fv and w25q256 ?
(2)w25q128fv is 1xdie? and w25q256 is 2xdie?
This is qspi-nor-winbond-w25q128-config

Hi!

We are currently trying to boot from QSPI on an i.MX6ULZ equipped with an Winbond W25Q256J QSPI NOR.And booting does not work, most likely because of the not matching QSPI config header at 0x400. I already tried the config file above, also with the changes suggested by jimmychan, but still it does not work.

So before I dig into this deeper, is there someone who is successfully booting via QSPI from a Winbond chip? If yes, could you please share the config header?

Mandy thanks,

Stefan

According to the w25q128bv datasheet, Write status register is 01H, it write two bytes S7-S0 and S15-S8.

And there is no instruction code 31h in w25q128bv, so please try to change the CMD "Write register (sequence 3)" to 01.

20010431   /*lut[12] command sequence*/      <--  20010401

2400   /*lut[13] command sequence*/
0   /*lut[14] command sequence*/
0   /*lut[15] command sequence*/

The purpose is to set the QE bit to 1. The QE bit is in S15-S8. The device_cmd is 2.

If still not work, please try to set the device_cmd to 0202. It should be set the Write enable and QE bit.
