micron flash parts by default operates in extended spi protocol,which accepts
command on single line and can accept address & data on one,two and four lines
depending on the command sent.In set_quad_enable() we are enabling the quad io
protocol for micron flash parts by updating the EVCR register,in this method the
flash expects the command,address and data to be transmitted on all four data
lines which may not be supported on all qspi controllers.So READ_1_1_4 command
does not necessarily go out using those bus widths.
So i have added SPI_QUAD_IO_PROTOCOL flag,which should be checked before enabling
the quad io protocol.

Hi Anurag,
We're struggling with the same issue, our Cadence QSPI controller *does*
handle four-line command, address, and data, but has to be configured
for it. The setting of quad-io-protocol mode in micron_quad_enable is
really jacking up our code. We have to snoop the command stream and
configure the controller as soon as we see the quad-io-protocol command
go to the Micron chip. Ugly.
I'd like to point out that this flag is also dependent upon the
particular controller in use, not just the Micron chip. In fact, it may
be more of a controller thing than a chip thing.
Maybe this flag should actually be an enum read_mode value, and passed
into spi_nor_scan by the controller?
Thanks,
Graham

Agree,
QUAD IO protocol is different to supporting QUAD IO read command.
In QUAD IO Protocol mode, all the commands including register read, erase, read,
Program... will be using the four lines.
Enabling the QUAD IO Protocol in flash should ensure that both the controller
and flash have this support otherwise the result is unpredictable.
So, now m25p80 driver should check the number bits to use depending on the
Protocol it uses. Literally we need another mode i.e protocol mode.
The possible values for this modes are
Dual Io protocol - all the commands will be sent using 2 lines
Quad Io protocol - all the commands will be send using 4 lines.
Extended spi protocol - number of data lines to use will depends on the data command.
If the protocol is extended spi protocol, m25p80 should select the rx and tx bits to use
for data operations depends on the "mode" i.e. quad/dual
If the protocol is Quad IO/dual Io, m2p80 should select the rx and tx bits either 4/2 for
All the commands.
Data operations in the above context means read, page program operation.
Suggest if we have any other acceptable solutions for implementing the quad/dual io
Protocol support.

Hi, I don't really have enough knowledge to comment QUAD IO, I'll just
include some general comments.

Above description is a bit of pain to read & understand. Long
sentences, lacking spaces after interpunction signs, small letters in
"micron", "spi" etc., lines over 72 chars. You really could do better
:)

All defines use tab so follow this way (don't use space instead).
