Would it be possible that the OTP memory is not properly initialized and the algorithm to initialized the packet list to confuse the hardware?

Meanwhile we looked deeper into this driver. I just drop here what we found so far, because it's vacation time, and this will probably not be picked up again this month because vacation etc. I wanna get it out of my head for now. ;-) Note: most of this should also apply to sama7g5, from comparing data sheets the OTPC is the same. 1. the call to read_poll_timeout() most probably has its sleep and timeout paramaters swapped. 2. the read access to OTPC_CR register is not necessary, the datasheet says the register is "write only". It may even trigger an interrupt for reading a write only register. Furthermore the WPCTEN bit in the OTPC Write Protection Mode register (OTPC_WPMR) is not checked before accessing OTPC_CR as suggested by the datasheet. 3. the errata sheet for the SAM9X60 SoC (DS80000846) has a section on the OTPC which recommends a fixup before the first write operation, with code example: https://ww1.microchip.com/downloads/aemDocuments/documents/MPU32/ProductDocuments/Errata/SAM9X60-Device-Silicon-Errata-and-Data-Sheet-Clarif-DS80000846.pdf The same thing is implemented in 'atmel-software-package' which has (at least had in the past) the code for the binary applets used in the 'sam-ba' tool: https://github.com/atmelcorp/atmel-software-package/blame/master/drivers/nvm/otp/otpc.c#L86 I bet this fixup should be implemented in this driver here as well? So far for now. Greets Alex > > Otherwise, from the top of my mind I don't have any idea on what might happen. > > Thank you, > Claudiu Beznea > > > > > Kinda stuck here.

I think this might be possible? SAM-BA also stumbles here, but the SoC is like shipped by the vendor, no OTPC writes ever from my side. When calling this … $ sam-ba -p serial -d sam9x60:0:1 -t 5 -a bootconfig -c readcfg:bcp-otp … I get this on serial debug output: Applet 'BootConfig' from SAM-BA Applets Framework 3.8 (v3.8). -E- Cannot read Boot Config Packet. -E- Invalid parameter for read config: index 0 Question is: how should the driver behave in this case? Fail like it does now? Or load in some kind of safe state with "empty" nvmem? This is especially interesting with regard to a new question below. > Otherwise, from the top of my mind I don't have any idea on what might happen. I have some debug code here, and digging deeper into this currently to see what's really happening. While at it, a new question came up: There's this OTP memory which the driver tries to expose as NVMEM. However what I really want to do is getting access to the OTPC Product UID x Registers, which are not OTP memory but plain registers inside of the address space of the OTPC here. Should this be exposed as a second nvmem device then, or handled by a different driver? How would accessing the same register space from different drivers be handled then?

If I remember correctly the user must flash the bootconfig packet depending on his needs. > When calling this … > > $ sam-ba -p serial -d sam9x60:0:1 -t 5 -a bootconfig -c readcfg:bcp-otp > > … I get this on serial debug output: > > Applet 'BootConfig' from SAM-BA Applets Framework 3.8 (v3.8). > -E- Cannot read Boot Config Packet. > -E- Invalid parameter for read config: index 0 > > Question is: how should the driver behave in this case? Fail like it > does now? Or load in some kind of safe state with "empty" nvmem? The driver cannot know if the memory is defective or not. Not that I've know. It expects the memory to be in a proper state. E.g. On SAMA7G5 the OTP memory has at lest the temperature sensor calibration data packet. And if I remember correctly, it also has the bootconfig packet on the first position.

If I remember > correctly the user must flash the bootconfig packet depending on his needs. User can do that, but does not need to if the defaults are sufficient. On sam9x60-curiosity it just boots with defaults from SD card or raw NAND flash. No bootconfig packets are set here. > > When calling this … > > > > $ sam-ba -p serial -d sam9x60:0:1 -t 5 -a bootconfig -c readcfg:bcp-otp > > > > … I get this on serial debug output: > > > > Applet 'BootConfig' from SAM-BA Applets Framework 3.8 (v3.8). > > -E- Cannot read Boot Config Packet. > > -E- Invalid parameter for read config: index 0 > > > > Question is: how should the driver behave in this case?

It expects the memory to be in a proper state. Datasheet says: After each reset, the OTPC parses the User area to check its content. The header of each packet will be read, depending on the header value some actions can be triggered: • If the header is corrupted, the init sequence is interrupted and the OTPC_ISR.COERR bit is set. The COERR bit in OTPC_ISR can be checked in the driver of course. Not sure if that adds any real value however. Maybe issue a warning in that case? > E.g.

Nice to know, however I don't have a board featuring the sama7g5 at hand.
