------------------------------------------------- Simple steps used to test the SH-QSPI at U-Boot ------------------------------------------------- #0, Currently, SH-QSPI is used by lager board (Renesas ARM SoC R8A7790) and koelsch board (Renesas ARM SoC R8A7791). These boot from SPI ROM basically. Thus, U-Boot start, SH-QSPI will is operating normally. #1, build U-Boot and load u-boot.bin => tftpboot 40000000 u-boot.bin sh_eth Waiting for PHY auto negotiation to complete.. done sh_eth: 100Base/Half Using sh_eth device TFTP from server 192.168.169.1; our IP address is 192.168.169.79 Filename 'u-boot.bin'.

If you want to use the other boards, please change the value according to each environment. => sf probe 0 SF: Detected S25FL512S_256K with page size 512 Bytes, erase size 64 KiB, total 64 MiB => sf erase 80000 40000 SF: 262144 bytes @ 0x80000 Erased: OK => sf write 40000000 80000 175364 SF: 1528676 bytes @ 0x80000 Written: OK => #3, Push reset button. If you're written correctly and driver works properly, U-Boot starts.
