When I looked at 'device erase' on an EEPROM it took just as long as erasing the sectors one at a time - but without the warm cosy feeling that progress was being made. Not only that you can't really interrupt the erase, so either the application has to sleep uninterruptibly for the duration or you have to have some kind of 'device busy' response while it is done asynchronously.

The one we're using (AT25F512A), as it's setup, it's fast enough. The datasheet states "The CHIP ERASE cycle time typically is 2 seconds.". I've not timed it's because as I said, seamed fast enough. If you can't erase it, then it's basically write once, or you expose it with spi_dev to Flashrom to erase it. > When I looked at 'device erase' on an EEPROM it took just as long > as erasing the sectors one at a time - but without the warm cosy > feeling that progress was being made. I didn't look at sector erase as I'm only interested in erasing it all and there was a command for it. I figured if someone wanted sector by sector they would implement it. > Not only that you can't really interrupt the erase, so either > the application has to sleep uninterruptibly for the duration > or you have to have some kind of 'device busy' response while > it is done asynchronously. That's true, but as I said, it's fast enough it's not an issue for us. > David > > - > Registered Address Lakeside, Bramley Road, Mount Farm, Milton Keynes, MK1 1PT, UK > Registration No: 1397386 (Wales) Regards, Joe

Many, though not all, AT25s have an instruction for chip erase. If there is one in the datasheet, it can be added to device tree. Erase can then be done in userspace via the sysfs API with a new "erase" device attribute. This matches the eeprom_93xx46 driver's "erase".
