26.Dt AT45D 4
27.Os
28.Sh NAME
29.Nm at45d
30.Nd driver for DataFlash(tm) non-volatile storage devices
31.Sh SYNOPSIS
32To compile this driver into the kernel,
33place the following line in your
34kernel configuration file:
35.Bd -ragged -offset indent
36.Cd "device at45d"
37.Ed
38.Pp
39Alternatively, to load the driver as a
40module at boot time, place the following line in
41.Xr loader.conf 5 :
42.Bd -literal -offset indent
43at45d_load="YES"
44.Ed
45.Sh DESCRIPTION
46The
47.Nm
48driver provides support for the family of non-volatile storage
49devices known collectively as DataFlash(tm).
50DataFlash chips typically have part numbers beginning with AT45DB.
51The
52.Nm
53driver supports only the SPI bus versions of each AT45DB device,
54indicated by the last digit of the part number being 1 or 2.
55.Pp
56The
57.Nm
58driver uses opcode 0x9f to read the manufacturer and device ID
59data to determine whether the device is supported.
60The device ID is looked up using a table of data within the driver
61which describes the attributes of each supported device,
62such as block size, sector size, and device capacity.
63When a supported device is found, the
64.Nm
65driver creates a disk device and makes it accessible at
66.Pa /dev/flash/at45d? .
67The new disk device is then tasted by the available
68.Xr geom 4
69modules as with any disk device.
70.Sh HARDWARE
71The
72.Nm
73driver provides support for the following devices:

94.El
95.Sh FDT CONFIGURATION
96On an
97.Xr fdt 4
98based system, the
99.Nm
100device is defined as a slave device subnode
101of the SPI bus controller node.
102All properties documented in the
103.Va spibus.txt
104bindings document can be used with the
105.Nm
106device.
107The most commonly-used ones are documented below.
108.Pp
109The following properties are required in the
110.Nm
111device subnode:
112.Bl -tag -width indent
113.It Va compatible
114Must be the string "atmel,at45".
115.It Va reg
116Chip select address of device.
117.It Va spi-max-frequency
118The maximum bus frequency to use when communicating with this slave device.
119Actual bus speed may be lower, depending on the capabilities of the SPI
120bus controller hardware.
121.El
122.Pp
123The following properties are optional for the
124.Nm
125device subnode:
126.Bl -tag -width indent
127.It Va freebsd,sectorsize
128The sector size of the disk created for this storage device.
129It must be a multiple of the device's page size.
130The default is the device page size.
131.It Va spi-cpha
132Empty property indicating the slave device requires shifted clock
133phase (CPHA) mode.
134.It Va spi-cpol
135Empty property indicating the slave device requires inverse clock
136polarity (CPOL) mode.
137.It Va spi-cs-high
138Empty property indicating the slave device requires chip select active high.
139.El
140.Sh HINTS CONFIGURATION
141On a
142.Xr device.hints 5
143based system, such as
144.Li MIPS ,
145these values are configurable for
146.Nm :
147.Bl -tag -width indent
148.It Va hint.at45d.%d.at
149The spibus the
150.Nm
151instance is attached to.
152.It Va hint.at45d.%d.clock
153The maximum bus frequency to use when communicating with this device.
154Actual bus speed may be lower, depending on the capabilities of the SPI
155bus controller hardware.
156.It Va hint.at45d.%d.cs
157The chip-select number to assert when performing I/O for this device.
158Set the high bit (1 << 31) to invert the logic level of the chip select line.
159.It Va hint.at45d.%d.mode
160The SPI mode (0-3) to use when communicating with this device.
161.It Va hint.at45d.%d.sectorsize
162The sector size of the disk created for this storage device.
163It must be a multiple of the device's page size.
164The default is the device page size.
165.El
166.Sh FILES
167.Bl -tag -width /dev/flash/at45d?
168.It Pa /dev/flash/at45d?
169Provides read/write access to the storage device.
170.It Pa /dev/flash/spi?
171An alias for the
172.Pa /dev/at45d?
173device, for backwards compatibility with older versions of the driver.
