Dear Champ,
Customer feedback DRA821 EVM can boot from OSPI flash without problem but savenv will not be saved onto OSPI flash.
Console log is as attached and no clue where the env was saved.

sf probe can detect s28hs512t
ENV REDUNDAND looks normal and working
However, saveenv then reset will find env was not saved.
Is there any limitation on OSPI flash writing?
