config MTD_CFI
	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)

config MTD_GEN_PROBE
	tristate
	select OBSOLETE_INTERMODULE

config MTD_CFI_ADV_OPTIONS
	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'.

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 :)

	bool "Specific CFI Flash geometry selection"
	depends on MTD_CFI_ADV_OPTIONS
	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.

config MTD_MAP_BANK_WIDTH_1

config MTD_CFI_I1
	bool "Support 1-chip flash interleave" if MTD_CFI_GEOMETRY
	default y
	help
	  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_I2
	bool "Support 2-chip flash interleave" if MTD_CFI_GEOMETRY
	default y
	help
	  If your flash chips are interleaved in pairs - i.e. you have two
	  flash chips addressed by each bus cycle, then say 'Y'.

config MTD_CFI_I4
	bool "Support 4-chip flash interleave" if MTD_CFI_GEOMETRY
	default n
	help
	  If your flash chips are interleaved in fours - i.e. you have four

config MTD_OTP
	bool "Protection Registers aka one-time programmable (OTP) bits"
	depends on MTD_CFI_ADV_OPTIONS
	default n
	help
	  This enables support for reading, writing and locking so called
	  "Protection Registers" present on some flash chips.
	  A subset of them are pre-programmed at the factory with a
	  unique set of values. The rest is user-programmable.

	  The user-programmable Protection Registers contain one-time
	  programmable (OTP) bits; when programmed, register bits cannot be
	  erased. Each Protection Register can be accessed multiple times to
	  program individual bits, as long as the register remains unlocked.

	  Each Protection Register has an associated Lock Register bit. When a
	  Lock Register bit is programmed, the associated Protection Register
	  can only be read; it can no longer be programmed. Additionally,
	  because the Lock Register bits themselves are OTP, when programmed,
	  Lock Register bits cannot be erased. Therefore, when a Protection
	  Register is locked, it cannot be unlocked.

	  This feature should therefore be used with extreme care. Any mistake
	  in the programming of OTP bits will waste them.

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
	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.

config MTD_CFI_UTIL
	tristate

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
	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 && BROKEN
	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 && BROKEN
	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 || MTD_CFI_AMDSTD) && EXPERIMENTAL && ARCH_MTD_XIP
	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.
