So far we relied on reset default or the bootloader to configure a
suitable clk rate for the Nand controller. This works but we can
optimize the timing for better performance. This sets the clk rate for
v2 controllers (i.MX25/35) based on the timing mode read from the ONFI
parameter page. This may also enable the symmetric mode (aks EDO mode)
if necessary which reads one word per clock cycle.
Tested on an i.MX25 with a Micron MT29F4G08ABBDAHC attached.

AFAIR, you should apply the new mode on the NAND side
(ONFI_FEATURE_ADDR_TIMING_MODE) before applying the new config to the
controller.

See what's done here [1].

Note that on all the NANDs I tested, it seems to work even if you don't
set ONFI_FEATURE_ADDR_TIMING_MODE, but the ONFI Spec describes the
procedure as:

1/ detect supported modes
2/ select one
3/ apply it to the NAND using set(ONFI_FEATURE_ADDR_TIMING_MODE)
4/ release the CS
5/ adjust the controller setting to match the new config

On a side note, I really think we should handle this timing selection in
the core, and only ask the NAND controller drivers to adapt the
controller settings.

Thanks,

Boris

Indeed, works here without notifying the NAND chip aswell. I wasn't even
aware that there is a possibility to notify the NAND chip.

I agree that the core should do this. Do you already have any thoughts
how the API could could look like? The Nand drivers probably have to
propagate somehow which modes they support, maybe we add a onfi_modes
field to struct nand_chip. Then if onfi_modes is nonzero we call a
nand_chip->set_onfi_mode() function?

I already provided a simple implementation a while ago [1]. Not sure it
handles all the corner cases though.

The idea was to have some way to ask the controller whether it supports
specific timings or not. I don't remember if this was part of my
initial proposal.

Note that we should pass struct real timings and not ONFI timing
mode.

Boris

I just picked up the patch and ported my mxc_nand patch over to it. See
the result on the mailing list.

Thanks for doing that. I'll try to review the series soon.
