Hello,
Vagrant Cascadian asked for people to test the version of u-boot
packaged
for Debian Buster. I tested u-boot on my Dreamplug and found it was not
working correctly. I raised a bug for Debian[1] but I have also tested
with the mainline version of u-boot and found the same issues.
This is the second issue that I found, and it causes u-boot to not
detect
the SPI flash on the system. I bisected the issue to the following
commit:
commit 6aaf76beb131c2ff2b7184c2d63c2c63e5ab339c

arm: kirkwood: configs: dreamplug: Convert to DM_SPI
Enable CONFIG_DM_SPI=y and CONFIG_DM_SPI_FLASH=y in the defconfig.

The error manifests itself as follows:
U-Boot 2019.01+dfsg-1 (Jan 15 2019 - 00:36:19 +0000)
Marvell-DreamPlug
SoC: Kirkwood 88F6281_A1
DRAM: 512 MiB
Loading Environment from SPI Flash... Invalid bus 0 (err=-19)
*** Warning - spi_flash_probe_bus_cs() failed, using default environment
A successful boot looks more like this:
U-Boot 2016.11+dfsg1-4 (Mar 27 2017 - 18:39:51 +0000)
Marvell-DreamPlug
SoC: Kirkwood 88F6281_A1
SPI: ready
DRAM: 512 MiB
WARNING: Caches not enabled
SF: Detected MX25L1605D with page size 256 Bytes, erase size 64 KiB,
total 2 MiB
Unfortunately, I don't know where to start to diagnose the issue. Could
anyone provide any pointers? Happy to test any suggestions.
Regards,
Leigh.
