Reading using the already supported read command is causing regression
after 4k bytes, as a result doing a page by page read. Its happening,
because
ti qpsi controller CS will get de asserted after 4096 bytes.

Elaborating a bit more on this,
There is a constrain on our hardware, which goes like this..

As soon as the words transfered is 4096 bytes, the CS gets deasserted
automatically.
As a result of this bottleneck, I am not able to use the current use read
api in mtd framework.
This requires me to send the read command every time in range upto 4096
bytes only.

To overcome this, I have updated the mtd read based on TI_QSPI config as
done above.

[Jagan]:
Do you have any suggestion of dealing this in a better way?
I don't see a way to get around this apart from updating mtd read
depending on TI_QSPI config.

Any inputs on this?

Any suggestions on the patch?

Yes, this part is pretty much working as with other s25fl.
Can you point me the respective controller driver for this.

Thanks for the response.

This is the link to uboot patches which I submitted to uboot mailing list.

Above are the links to uboot patches containing all def configs and uboot ti qspi driver.

As communicated earlier, there is a limitation in our qspi controller driver, wherein after every 4096 bytes CS gets de asserted. So, I had to modify the above read framework to do a page read. Need better way to handle this limitation, so that the above patch series can get upstreamed.
Does linux support this ti_qspi, please point the defconfig if you have.

Patches for linux is under review and still not mainlined.
