We noticed on the DXR2 platform (AM335x with a SMSC LAN9303 switch connected
to the CPSW MAC) that the network performance in U-Boot is quite poor. Only
when the transfer is started without a cable connected, and the cable is
plugged after the first timeout "T" occured, an increased in performance
can be seen. Debugging has revealed, that the cpsw driver has constant
link checking builtin into the rx and tx functions. This results in the
bad performance and seems to be unnecessary. The link has already been
checked in the init function, before the transfer is started. This usually
is sufficient.
BTW: I have seen no other network driver in U-Boot so far, that constantly
checks for link in the rx / tx functions.
The performance numbers on the DXR2 board are:
0.56 MiB/s cpsw_check_link() in rx and tx path
0.87 MiB/s cpsw_check_link() only in tx path
1.0 MiB/s cpsw_check_link() only in rx path
2.7 MiB/s no cpsw_check_link() in rx and tx path
So with this patch the network performance on DXR2 increases from 0.56
to 2.7 MiB/s (nearly 5 times as fast).

I guess some developers are already getting sick of this tool

[1] The boards.cfg is removed if the program is terminated
during __gen_boards_cfg() function but before boards.cfg
is actually touched. In this case, the previous boards.cfg
should be kept as it is.

We have to make sure there are no subprocesses (in this case,

This patch adds support for parallel NOR device (S29GL512S10) present on J6-EVM.
The Flash device is connected to GPMC controller on chip-select[0] and accessed
as memory-mapped device. It has data-witdh=x16, capacity-64MBytes(512Mbits) and
is CFI compatible.
As multiple devices are share GPMC pins on this board, so following board
settings are required to detect NOR device:
SW5.1 (NAND_BOOTn) = OFF (logic-1)
SW5.2 (NOR_BOOTn) = ON (logic-0) /* Active-low */
SW5.3 (eMMC_BOOTn) = OFF (logic-1)
SW5.4 (QSPI_BOOTn) = OFF (logic-1)
And also set appropriate SYSBOOT configurations:
SW3.1 (SYSBOOT[ 8])= ON (logic-1) /* selects SYS_CLK1 speed */
SW3.2 (SYSBOOT[ 9])= OFF (logic-0) /* selects SYS_CLK1 speed */
SW3.3 (SYSBOOT[10])= ON (logic-1) /* wait-pin monitoring = enabled */
SW3.4 (SYSBOOT[11])= OFF (logic-0) /* device type: Non Muxed */
SW3.5 (SYSBOOT[12])= OFF (logic-0) /* device type: Non Muxed */
SW3.6 (SYSBOOT[13])= ON (logic-1) /* device bus-width: 1(x16) */
SW3.7 (SYSBOOT[14])= OFF (logic-0) /* reserved */
SW3.8 (SYSBOOT[15])= ON (logic-1) /* reserved */
Also, following changes are required to enable NOR Flash support in
dra7xx_evm board profile:
This patch adds support for NAND device connected to GPMC chip-select on
following AM43xx EVM boards.
am437x-gp-evm: On this board, NAND Flash signals are muxed with eMMC, thus at a
time either eMMC or NAND can be enabled. Selection between eMMC and NAND is
controlled by:
(a) Statically using Jumper on connecter (J89) present on board.
(a) If Jumper on J89 is NOT used, then selection can be dynamically controlled
by driving SPI2_CS0[MUX_MODE=GPIO] pin via software:
SPI2_CS0 == 0: NAND (default)
SPI2_CS0 == 1: eMMC
am43x-epos-evm: On this board, NAND Flash control lines are muxed with QSPI,
Thus only one of the two can be used at a time. Selection is controlled by:
(a) Dynamically driving following GPIO pin from software
GPMC_A0(GPIO) == 0 NAND is selected (default)
NAND device (MT29F4G08AB) on these boards has:
- data-width=8bits
- blocksize=256KB
- pagesize=4KB
- oobsize=224 bytes
For above NAND device, ROM code expects the boot-loader to be flashed in BCH16
ECC scheme for NAND boot, So by default BCH16 ECC is enabled for AM43xx EVMs.

This patch adds support of NOR cape[1] for both Beaglebone (white) and
Beaglebone(Black) boards. NOR Flash on this cape is connected to GPMC

As GPMC chip-select[0] can be shared by multiple capes so NOR profile is

(b) NAND Device with bus-width=16, block-size=256k, page-size=4k, oob-size=224
Further information and datasheets can be found at [1] and [2]
* How to boot from NAND using Memory Expander + NAND Cape ? *
- Important: As BOOTSEL values are sampled only at POR, so after changing any
setting on SW2 (DIP switch), disconnect and reconnect all board power supply
(including mini-USB console port) to POR the beaglebone.
- Selection of ECC scheme
for NAND cape(a), ROM code expects BCH8_HW ecc-scheme
for NAND cape(b), ROM code expects BCH16_HW ecc-scheme
- Selction of boot modes can be controlled via DIP switch(SW2) present on
Memory Expander cape.
SW2[SWITCH_BOOT] == OFF follow default boot order MMC-> SPI -> UART -> USB
SW2[SWITCH_BOOT] == ON boot mode selected via DIP switch(SW2)
So to flash NAND, first boot via MMC or other sources and then switch to
SW2[SWITCH_BOOT]=ON to boot from NAND Cape.
- For NAND boot following switch settings need to be followed
SW2[ 1] = OFF (SYSBOOT[ 0]==1: NAND boot mode selected )
SW2[ 2] = OFF (SYSBOOT[ 1]==1: -- do -- )
SW2[ 3] = ON (SYSBOOT[ 2]==0: -- do -- )
SW2[ 4] = ON (SYSBOOT[ 3]==0: -- do -- )
SW2[ 5] = OFF (SYSBOOT[ 4]==1: -- do -- )
SW2[ 6] = OFF (SYSBOOT[ 8]==1: 0:x8 device, 1:x16 device )
SW2[ 7] = ON (SYSBOOT[ 9]==0: ECC done by ROM )
SW2[ 8] = ON (SYSBOOT[10]==0: Non Muxed device )
SW2[ 9] = ON (SYSBOOT[11]==0: -- do -- )

*IMPORTANT NOTE*
As Beaglebone board shares the same config as AM335x EVM, so following
changes are required in addition to this patch for Beaglebone NAND cape.
(1) Enable NAND in am335x_beaglebone board profile
(2) Add CONFIG_SYS_NAND_BUSWIDTH_16BIT to board config because:
- AM335x EVM has NAND device with datawidth=8, whereas
- Beaglebone NAND cape has NAND device with data-width=16
This patch
- consolidate CONFIG_SYS_NAND_xx and CONFIG_SPL_NAND_xx from various
configuration files into single file.
- update MTD Partition table to match AM335x_EVM DT in linux-kernel
- segregate CONFIGs based on different boot modes (like SPL and U-Boot)
