[U-Boot-Users] [Patch] Support for AMD db1550 board
by Leif Lindholm 10 Jan '05

10 Jan '05

Hi This patch adds support for the AMD db1550 board to u-boot. It is implemented as a flavor of the au1x00 family. Since I have not tested the pcmcia/ide stuff, this board has CONFIG_BOOTCOMMAND and CONFIG_COMMANDS ifdef:d to different values than the rest of the boards in the family. Also, the memory setup differs a bit from earlier boards, due to this board being equipped with DDR SDRAM. This has lead to quite a large memsetup.S (heavily ifdef:d). It also includes some code taken from AMD:s version of YAMON for this board (with their permission), for enabling cache and doing some preloads before reconfiguring the flash controller to correct values. This precaution may be a good idea on the other boards as well, but since I have not tested it on them, this part is ifdef:d CONFIG_DBAU1550. I have included the "new" version of mkconfig, which now accepts a "$6" specifying endianess. This software is only tested in little endian mode. This patch also contains some minor changes allowing for setting CPU clock frequency in only one place (instead of three) and calculating the correct divisor for the uart based on this. regards / Leif

It is not a problem with the toolchain, it is due to the fact how the makefile in examples is written. When you first run make without arm-linux-gcc in the path make does a lot, but it created only empty .depend files (because of compiler not found). Afterwards you include arm-linux-gcc in the path and run make again. Everything is running then except the examples directory. Make does not compile hello_world.c, instead it uses a builtin implicit rule to make hello_world (there is no dependency from OBJS and the explicit dependency for hello_world.o is missing, because of empty .depend). When you run make -r (no builtin implicit rules) it works. Work around: make clobber (deletes your wrong .depend) mkconfig ... adding arm-linux-gcc to your path make Hint to Wolfgang: If you add OBJS to the all rule in Makefile for examples, it will work in any case. all: .depend $(LIB) $(OBJS) $(SREC) $(BIN) Rainer

[U-Boot-Users] New Resend : [patch][cvs] A fix in main.c
by Sam Song 10 Jan '05

10 Jan '05

Hello Thomas, I misused CONFIG_MENUKEY in my test program and found an error but not quite sure. Pls check it. BTW, CONFIG_MENUKEY and CONFIG_MENUCOMMAND is only used in the AmigaOneG3SE board, which you maintaine. I didn't see their info in README. Could you pls explain the usage or even better send a patch in README? Thanks a lot. Sorry, Thomas. I had sent you the 'same' mail two times. I didn't do it on purpose. First patch was broken by mail warper, which couldn't apply. Second was a misoperation. This one could be the correct one, I hope.

[U-Boot-Users] [PATCH] Fpga bitstream load support
by Kurt Stremerch 09 Jan '05

09 Jan '05

Hi all. This patch, against current cvs, adds the option loadb to the fpga command. The option allows users to configure a fpga directly with a bitstream stored in memory. Actually, the configuration is still done by fpga_load(), except the necessary bitswapping is applied on the configuration data before calling it. For now, only Xilinx bitstreams are supported. In FPGA_DEBUG mode, the loadb option can print bitstream project details like the design name, part number, date/time and the length of bitstream. Regards Kurt CHANGELOG: * Patch by Kurt Stremerch, 03 September 2004: Add bitstream configuration option for fpga command (Xilinx only).
