Subject: [PATCH v1] spi: spi-mtk-nor: Add recovery mechanism for dma read timeout

From: bayi cheng <[email protected]>

The state machine of MTK spi nor controller may be disturbed by some
glitch signals from the relevant BUS during dma read, Although the
possibility of causing the dma read to fail is next to nothing,
However, if error-handling is not implemented, which makes the feature
somewhat risky.

Add an error-handling mechanism here, reset the state machine and
re-read the data when an error occurs.

Change in v1:
-Reset the state machine when dma read fails and read again.

From what I understand, you're introducing a way to perform a flush+reset on
the controller.

At this point, I'd put that in a separate function like `mtk_nor_reset()`, as
to both increase readability and to possibly reuse it somewhere else in the
future, if needed.

So this would become...

} else {
ret = mtk_nor_read_dma(sp, op);
if (unlikely(ret)) {
/* Handle rare bus glitch */
mtk_nor_reset(sp);
mtk_nor_setup_bus(sp, op);
return mtk_nor_read_dma(sp, op);
}
return ret;
}

...or something alike :-)

Angelo

Hi Angelo,

Thanks for your comments! I will fix it in the next patch.
