uboot_mt7620对SPI flash操作的分析

接上篇文章，AR9331系统与mt7620系统对flash的划分是不一样的，AR系统划分为Flash（可能是作为NAND来处理），而mt7620（mips）系统则划分的比较明确，用的是SPI_FLASH。

在uboot的启动界面上，可以看到这样一些信息：

Please choose the operation: 
   1: Load system code to SDRAM via TFTP. 
   2: Load system code then write to Flash via TFTP. 
   3: Boot system code via Flash (default).
   4: Entr boot command line interface.
   7: Load Boot Loader code then write to Flash via Serial. 
   9: Load Boot Loader code then write to Flash via TFTP. 

于是，

grep 'write to Flash via TFTP' -r .

找到：

./lib_mips/board.c:	printf("   %d: Load system code then write to Flash via TFTP. n",SEL_LOAD_LINUX_WRITE_FLASH);
./lib_mips/board.c:	printf("   %d: Load Boot Loader code then write to Flash via TFTP. n",SEL_LOAD_BOOT_WRITE_FLASH);
./lib_mips/board.c:			printf("   n%d: System Load Linux Kernel then write to Flash via TFTP. n",SEL_LOAD_LINUX_WRITE_FLASH);
./lib_mips/board.c:			printf("   n%d: System Load Boot Loader then write to Flash via TFTP. (.bin)n",SEL_LOAD_BOOT_WRITE_FLASH);

打开board.c一看究竟。

void OperationSelect(void)
{
	printf("nPlease choose the operation: n");
	printf("   %d: Load system code then write to Flash via Serial. n",SEL_LOAD_LINUX_WRITE_FLASH_BY_SERIAL);
	printf("   %d: Load system code to SDRAM via TFTP. n",SEL_LOAD_LINUX_SDRAM);
	printf("   %d: Load system code then write to Flash via TFTP. n",SEL_LOAD_LINUX_WRITE_FLASH);
	printf("   %d: Boot system code via Flash (default).n",SEL_BOOT_FLASH);
#ifdef RALINK_CMDLINE
	printf("   %d: Entr boot command line interface.n",SEL_ENTER_CLI);
#endif // RALINK_CMDLINE //

#if defined(ASUS_RTN14U)
	printf("   %d: Load Boot Loader code to SDRAM via Serial. n",SEL_LOAD_BOOT_SDRAM_VIA_SERIAL);
#endif	
#ifdef RALINK_UPGRADE_BY_SERIAL
	printf("   %d: Load Boot Loader code then write to Flash via Serial. n",SEL_LOAD_BOOT_WRITE_FLASH_BY_SERIAL);
#endif // RALINK_UPGRADE_BY_SERIAL //

#if defined(ASUS_RTN14U)
	printf("   %d: Load Boot Loader code to SDRAM via TFTP. n",SEL_LOAD_BOOT_SDRAM);
#endif
	printf("   %d: Load Boot Loader code then write to Flash via TFTP. n",SEL_LOAD_BOOT_WRITE_FLASH);
}

调用层次为：【./cpu/ralink_soc/start.S: la t9,board_init_r】→【board_init_r】→【OperationSelect】

调用的是 raspi_erase_write 方法来对spi flash进行擦除和写入。
