Last time I looked, we lacked some post_init handler to setup a slave:
configure the registers defining the AHB windows for each flash
slave and perform the read timing calibration. calibration should
only be done once.
See how the aspeed_spi_flash_init() routine doing the calibration
is hooked up under aspeed_spi_claim_bus() in the u-boot driver :
https://github.com/openbmc/u-boot/blob/v2019.04-aspeed-openbmc/drivers/spi/aspeed_spi.c
Not good enough for upstream, Linux would be the same :/

I will take a look.

The driver reads the first 16K at slow speed (that's why we need a
basic minimal setup of the slave) and checks if the buffer is valid
enough for the calibration :
https://github.com/openbmc/linux/blob/dev-5.15/drivers/mtd/spi-nor/controllers/aspeed-smc.c#L998
it then performs reads by changing the frequency and delays and
compares results with the initial default buffer.
if not, then the driver stays in a safe mode (slow).

Just once because it is a heavy process. See the debug outputs below.
Once we have good read timings and frequency, there is no need to do
it each time.

Thanks,

There are 3 controllers, 1e620000/FMC is for the BMC. We keep
safe settings for it and normally u-boot has done the training
already . The other two controllers are for the SPI-NOR of the
host and for these we push the frequency higher.
