Marek Vasut 0a02655481 sf: Make 4K sector support configurable
Make the support for 4K subpage I/O on a SPI NOR flash configurable.
A board which requires the SPI NOR to be accessed in larger 32KiB
or 64KiB pages can disable the 4K subpage support, but by default,
the support for 4K subpage I/O is enabled. The functionality of this
option is the same as CONFIG_MTD_SPI_NOR_USE_4K_SECTORS in Linux.

This is extremely useful in case one uses UBI on a SPI NOR flash.
UBI needs at least 15k EBs and can not work on a flash which uses
4k ones, so disabling the support for 4k subpages lets UBI work on
such flash.

config DM_SPI_FLASH
bool "Enable Driver Model for SPI flash"
depends on DM && DM_SPI
help
Enable driver model for SPI flash. This SPI flash interface
(spi_flash_probe(), spi_flash_write(), etc.) is then
implemented by the SPI flash uclass. There is one standard
SPI flash driver which knows how to probe most chips
supported by U-Boot. The uclass interface is defined in
include/spi_flash.h, but is currently fully compatible
with the old interface to avoid confusion and duplication
during the transition parent. SPI and SPI flash must be
enabled together (it is not possible to use driver model
for one and not the other).
config SPI_FLASH_SANDBOX
bool "Support sandbox SPI flash device"
depends on SANDBOX && DM_SPI_FLASH
help
Since sandbox cannot access real devices, an emulation mechanism is
provided instead. Drivers can be connected up to the sandbox SPI
bus (see CONFIG_SANDBOX_SPI) and SPI traffic will be routed to this
device. Typically the contents of the emulated SPI flash device is
stored in a file on the host filesystem.
config SPI_FLASH
bool "Legacy SPI Flash Interface support"
help
Enable the legacy SPI flash support. This will include basic
standard support for things like probing, read / write, and
erasing through cmd_sf interface.

bool "Use small 4096 B erase sectors"
depends on SPI_FLASH
default y
help
Many flash memories support erasing small (4096 B) sectors. Depending
on the usage this feature may provide performance gain in comparison
to erasing whole blocks (32/64 KiB).
Changing a small part of the flash's contents is usually faster with
small sectors. On the other hand erasing should be faster when using
64 KiB block instead of 16 × 4 KiB sectors.
Please note that some tools/drivers/filesystems may not work with
4096 B erase size (e.g. UBIFS requires 15 KiB as a minimum).
config SPI_FLASH_DATAFLASH
bool "AT45xxx DataFlash support"
depends on SPI_FLASH && DM_SPI_FLASH
help
Enable the access for SPI-flash-based AT45xxx DataFlash chips.
DataFlash is a kind of SPI flash. Most AT45 chips have two buffers
in each chip, which may be used for double buffered I/O; but this
driver doesn't (yet) use these for any kind of i/o overlap or prefetching.
Sometimes DataFlash is packaged in MMC-format cards, although the
MMC stack can't (yet?) distinguish between MMC and DataFlash
protocols during enumeration.

config SPI_FLASH_MTD
bool "SPI Flash MTD support"
depends on SPI_FLASH
help
Enable the MTD support for spi flash layer, this adapter is for
translating mtd_read/mtd_write commands into spi_flash_read/write
commands. It is not intended to use it within sf_cmd or the SPI
flash subsystem. Such an adapter is needed for subsystems like
UBI which can only operate on top of the MTD layer.
