tristate "Detect flash chips by Common Flash Interface (CFI) probe"
depends on MTD
select MTD_GEN_PROBE
help
The Common Flash Interface specification was developed by Intel,
AMD and other flash manufactures that provides a universal method
for probing the capabilities of flash devices. If you wish to
support any device that is CFI-compliant, you need to enable this
option. Visit <http://www.amd.com/products/nvd/overview/cfi.html>
for more information on CFI.
config MTD_JEDECPROBE
tristate "Detect non-CFI AMD/JEDEC-compatible flash chips"
depends on MTD
select MTD_GEN_PROBE
help
This option enables JEDEC-style probing of flash chips which are not
compatible with the Common Flash Interface, but will use the common
CFI-targetted flash drivers for any chips which are identified which
are in fact compatible in all but the probe method. This actually
covers most AMD/Fujitsu-compatible chips, and will shortly cover also
non-CFI Intel chips (that code is in MTD CVS and should shortly be sent
for inclusion in Linus' tree)

bool "Flash chip driver advanced configuration options"
depends on MTD_GEN_PROBE
help
If you need to specify a specific endianness for access to flash
chips, or if you wish to reduce the size of the kernel by including
support for only specific arrangements of flash chips, say 'Y'. This
option does not directly affect the code, but will enable other
configuration options which allow you to do so.
If unsure, say 'N'.

prompt "Flash cmd/query data swapping"

default MTD_CFI_NOSWAP
config MTD_CFI_NOSWAP
bool "NO"
---help---
This option defines the way in which the CPU attempts to arrange
data bits when writing the 'magic' commands to the chips. Saying
'NO', which is the default when CONFIG_MTD_CFI_ADV_OPTIONS isn't
enabled, means that the CPU will not do any swapping; the chips
are expected to be wired to the CPU in 'host-endian' form.
Specific arrangements are possible with the BIG_ENDIAN_BYTE and
LITTLE_ENDIAN_BYTE, if the bytes are reversed.
If you have a LART, on which the data (and address) lines were
connected in a fashion which ensured that the nets were as short
as possible, resulting in a bit-shuffling which seems utterly
random to the untrained eye, you need the LART_ENDIAN_BYTE option.
Yes, there really exists something sicker than PDP-endian :)

help
This option does not affect the code directly, but will enable
some other configuration options which would allow you to reduce
the size of the kernel by including support for only certain
arrangements of CFI chips. If unsure, say 'N' and all options
which are supported by the current code will be enabled.

If your flash chips are not interleaved - i.e. you only have one
flash chip addressed by each bus cycle, then say 'Y'.

config MTD_CFI_INTELEXT
tristate "Support for Intel/Sharp flash chips"
depends on MTD_GEN_PROBE
select MTD_CFI_UTIL
help
The Common Flash Interface defines a number of different command
sets which a CFI-compliant chip may claim to implement. This code
provides support for one of those command sets, used on Intel
StrataFlash and other parts.
config MTD_CFI_AMDSTD
tristate "Support for AMD/Fujitsu flash chips"
depends on MTD_GEN_PROBE
select MTD_CFI_UTIL
help
The Common Flash Interface defines a number of different command
sets which a CFI-compliant chip may claim to implement. This code
provides support for one of those command sets, used on chips
including the AMD Am29LV320.
config MTD_CFI_AMDSTD_RETRY
int "Retry failed commands (erase/program)"
depends on MTD_CFI_AMDSTD
default "0"
help
Some chips, when attached to a shared bus, don't properly filter
bus traffic that is destined to other devices. This broken
behavior causes erase and program sequences to be aborted when
the sequences are mixed with traffic for other devices.
SST49LF040 (and related) chips are know to be broken.
config MTD_CFI_AMDSTD_RETRY_MAX
int "Max retries of failed commands (erase/program)"
depends on MTD_CFI_AMDSTD_RETRY
default "0"
help
If you have an SST49LF040 (or related chip) then this value should
be set to at least 1. This can also be adjusted at driver load
time with the retry_cmd_max module parameter.
config MTD_CFI_STAA
tristate "Support for ST (Advanced Architecture) flash chips"
depends on MTD_GEN_PROBE
select MTD_CFI_UTIL

The Common Flash Interface defines a number of different command
sets which a CFI-compliant chip may claim to implement. This code
provides support for one of those command sets.

config MTD_RAM
tristate "Support for RAM chips in bus mapping"
depends on MTD
help
This option enables basic support for RAM chips accessed through
a bus mapping driver.
config MTD_ROM
tristate "Support for ROM chips in bus mapping"
depends on MTD
help
This option enables basic support for ROM chips accessed through
a bus mapping driver.
config MTD_ABSENT
tristate "Support for absent chips in bus mapping"
depends on MTD
help
This option enables support for a dummy probing driver used to
allocated placeholder MTD devices on systems that have socketed
or removable media. Use of this driver as a fallback chip probe
preserves the expected registration order of MTD device nodes on
the system regardless of media presence. Device nodes created
with this driver will return -ENODEV upon access.
config MTD_OBSOLETE_CHIPS
depends on MTD && BROKEN
bool "Older (theoretically obsoleted now) drivers for non-CFI chips"
help
This option does not enable any code directly, but will allow you to
select some other chip drivers which are now considered obsolete,
because the generic CONFIG_JEDECPROBE code above should now detect
the chips which are supported by these drivers, and allow the generic
CFI-compatible drivers to drive the chips. Say 'N' here unless you have
already tried the CONFIG_JEDECPROBE method and reported its failure
to the MTD mailing list at <linux-mtd@lists.infradead.org>
config MTD_AMDSTD
tristate "AMD compatible flash chip support (non-CFI)"
depends on MTD && MTD_OBSOLETE_CHIPS
help
This option enables support for flash chips using AMD-compatible
commands, including some which are not CFI-compatible and hence
cannot be used with the CONFIG_MTD_CFI_AMDSTD option.
It also works on AMD compatible chips that do conform to CFI.
config MTD_SHARP
tristate "pre-CFI Sharp chip support"
depends on MTD && MTD_OBSOLETE_CHIPS
help
This option enables support for flash chips using Sharp-compatible
commands, including some which are not CFI-compatible and hence
cannot be used with the CONFIG_MTD_CFI_INTELxxx options.
config MTD_JEDEC
tristate "JEDEC device support"
depends on MTD && MTD_OBSOLETE_CHIPS
help
Enable older older JEDEC flash interface devices for self
programming flash. It is commonly used in older AMD chips. It is
only called JEDEC because the JEDEC association
<http://www.jedec.org/> distributes the identification codes for the
chips.
config MTD_XIP
bool "XIP aware MTD support"
depends on !SMP && MTD_CFI_INTELEXT && EXPERIMENTAL
default y if XIP_KERNEL
help
This allows MTD support to work with flash memory which is also
used for XIP purposes. If you're not sure what this is all about
then say N.
