[Feature Request] Support for switching flash

[amazingfate]

I have a rk3566 board orangepi 3b which has both spi nor flash and emmc. When I get into maskrom mode, rkdeveloptool can only show one flash info. We need a method to switch flashes on device so that it will be much easier to flash images to different storage devices.

Much needed feature for devices that have both spi and emmc attached.

Hello. I just post a pull request with this feature: #106

[nikhilkumarnk]

it does not work with the ROC-RK3568-PC SE from firefly.
tested with all values 0-9 and --> both x86_64 host and aarch64 host (another ROC-RK3568-PC with edk2 and Devuan).

please reopen the issue!

hello

• can you copy/paste the output of your console ?
• what loader do you use ? (ie the loader file you use in rkdeveloptool db <loader>)

I haven't been able to select SD on RK3576 (ArmSoM Sige5) either. I tested with rk3576_spl_loader_v1.08.106.bin and rk3576_spl_loader_v1.09.107.bin, all values in the range of 0-255. Besides eMMC, they fail with a similar message whether SD is populated or not:

Change Storage failed! Storage 2 is not available.

After further inspection with xrock, it shows that the Switch Storage capability for RK3576 is enabled:

Capability: 15 17 00 00 00 00 00 00
    Direct LBA: enabled
    Vendor Storage: disabled
    First 4M Access: enabled
    Read LBA: disabled
    New Vendor Storage: enabled
    Read Com Log: disabled
    Read IDB Config: disabled
    Read Secure Mode: disabled
    New IDB: enabled
    Switch Storage: enabled
    LBA Parity: enabled
    Read OTP Chip: disabled
    Switch USB3: enabled

However, it too cannot switch to SD on RK3576, while RK3588 works with both implementations of this feature in rkdeveloptool and xrock. I unfortunately do not have any other Rockchip boards with different SoCs to test...
