Sandbox SPI/SPI Flash Implementation
====================================
U-Boot supports SPI and SPI flash emuation in sandbox. This must be enabled
using the --spi_sf paramter when starting U-Boot.
For example:
$ make O=sandbox sandbox_config
$ make O=sandbox
$ ./sandbox/u-boot --spi_sf 0:0:W25Q128:b/chromeos_peach/out/image.bin
The four parameters to spi_sf are:
SPI bus number (typically 0)
SPI chip select number (typically 0)
SPI chip to emulate
File containing emulated data
Supported chips are W25Q16 (2MB), W25Q32 (4MB) and W25Q128 (16MB). Once
U-Boot it started you can use 'sf' commands as normal. For example:
$ ./b/sandbox/u-boot --spi_sf 0:0:W25Q128:b/chromeos_peach/out/image.bin \
-c "sf probe; sf test 0 100000; sf read 0 1000 1000; \
sf erase 1000 1000; sf write 0 1000 1000"

Since the SPI bus is fully implemented as well as the SPI flash connected to
it, you can also use low-level SPI commands to access the flash. For example
this reads the device ID from the emulated chip:
=> sspi 0 32 9f
