Hi all,
I am using custom based board based on LS2085A QDS. I am booting the board from QSPI Flash (S25FS256S). I am able to create partitions on QSPI flash but not able to do erase/read/program on any partition. I am using kernel version 4.1.r0 that comes with EAR6 release.
Below are the dmesg logs for fsl-qauadsp driver probe:-

When I am trying to erase/program using mtd-utils (flash_erase/flashcp commands), I am getting the below logs:-

QSPI flash(S25FS256S) supports the commands (0xdc)for sector erase.Can anyone tell what could be the problem.
Hi,
I think that a flash size of more than 16 MB requires usage of 4-byte-address commands (see spi_nor_scan() in drivers/mtd/spi-nor/spi-nor.c). But the LS QSPI driver seems to implement only the basic 3-byte-address commands (=> drivers/mtd/spi-nor/fsl-quadspi.c).

My flash part(s25fl164k) is 8MB in size. So it shouldn't matter I guess.
Are you really getting the same command code 0xdc in the error message?
Ralf
What I meant by same error means I am not been able to read or write at all and my screen get freeze. I did not get any error message and I have to reboot the system. Also when I boot up I get "Unsupported cmd 0x03" error message.
Thanks

Following changes in spi-nor.c solved my problem .
{ "s25fl164k", INFO(0x014017, 0, 64 * 1024, 128, SECT_4K | SPI_NOR_DUAL_READ | SPI_NOR_QUAD_READ) },
Thanks

Having similar problem , my board is based on ls1021aiot and uses ls1020a processor. I am using s25fl164k part . My u-boot resides in qspi flash but at linux I can not access qspi because of the exact same issue mentioned above.
Thanks
