This attribute exists only if the + system has booted from the alternate flash chip due to + expiration of a watchdog timer of AST2400/AST2500 when + alternate boot function was enabled with 'aspeed,alt-boot' + devicetree option for that watchdog or with an appropriate + h/w strapping (for WDT2 only). + + At alternate flash the 'access_cs0' sysfs node provides: + ast2400: a way to get access to the primary SPI flash + chip at CS0 after booting from the alternate + chip at CS1. + ast2500: a way to restore the normal address mapping + from (CS0->CS1, CS1->CS0) to (CS0->CS0, + CS1->CS1). + + Clearing the boot code selection and timeout counter also + resets to the initial state the chip select line mapping. When + the SoC is in normal mapping state (i.e. booted from CS0), + clearing those bits does nothing for both versions of the SoC. + For alternate boot mode (booted from CS1 due to wdt2 + expiration) the behavior differs as described above. + + This option can be used with wdt2 (watchdog1) only. + + When read, the current status of the boot code selection is + shown. When written with any non-zero value, it clears + the boot code selection and the timeout counter, which results + in chipselect reset for AST2400/AST2500.
