[U-Boot-Users] U-Boot debugging problem with BDI2000.
by Txema Lopez 07 Jun '06

07 Jun '06

Hi all, We have been working with a Lite5200B and debugging U-Boot with a BDI2000 without any problem. Recently, to solve some problems with our aplication debugging, we have updated the gdb from the 5.3 version to the 6.3 version and now we can not debug U-Boot (but yes the linux kernel). When we put a hard breakpoint in flash and the program stops we get the message : "signal handler called" from the gdb. Our BDI2000 firmware version is V1.21. Does anyone know if we must update our BDI2000 firmware to work with the gdb 6.3 ?. Any clues? TIA,

Hello, Is there anybody out there who is using u-boot to boot linux on a LEON3 soft proc ? This proc is compatible with Sparc v8.

[U-Boot-Users] [PATCH] Fix CRAMFS failure to compile if CFG_NO_FLASH.
by Jonathan McDowell 06 Jun '06

06 Jun '06

I'm working on u-boot support for the Amstrad Delta (E3) video phone. Currently this is running with NAND but not NOR support. However when JFFS2 support is compiled into u-boot this pulls in CRAMFS, which fails to compile if CFG_NO_FLASH is set. The attached patch fixes this by adding stub cramfs functions in the case when this is set, which allows JFFS2 support to build and run. Patch is against current git.

[U-Boot-Users] Compile error with arm-linux-gcc
by Angelos Manousarides 06 Jun '06

When trying to compile with this gcc: Reading specs from /opt/inaccess/xdvl/toolchain/gcc-3.4.3-glibc-2.3.5/arm-linux/lib/gcc/arm-linux/3.4.3/specs Configured with: /home/u0/amanous/crosstool-0.38/build/arm-linux/gcc-3.4.3-glibc-2.3.5/gcc-3.4.3/configure --target=arm-linux --host=i686-host_pc-linux-gnu --prefix=/opt/inaccess/xdvl/toolchain/gcc-3.4.3-glibc-2.3.5/arm-linux --with-float=soft --with-headers=/opt/inaccess/xdvl/toolchain/gcc-3.4.3-glibc-2.3.5/arm-linux/arm-linux/include --with-local-prefix=/opt/inaccess/xdvl/toolchain/gcc-3.4.3-glibc-2.3.5/arm-linux/arm-linux --disable-nls --enable-threads=posix --enable-symvers=gnu --enable-__cxa_atexit --enable-languages=c,c++ --enable-shared --enable-c99 --enable-long-long Thread model: posix gcc version 3.4.3 I get the following error: cc1: error: invalid option `abi=apcs-gnu' cc1: error: invalid option `abi=apcs-gnu' ... There was a problem with the arm compilers and a fix was introduced in u-boot 1.1.4, in cpu/pxa/config.mk (this is one of the reasons I upgraded from 1.1.3). But it seems that this solution introduced this problem. I have compiled and executed u-boot successfully with the line containing the offending flag commented. -- Angelos Manousarides

[U-Boot-Users] Patches for the PXA architecture
by Angelos Manousarides 06 Jun '06

06 Jun '06

I have a board with a PXA255 processor. This board has en external dual uart chip and I want to support console setup on either the PXA uarts, or one of the external uarts. I found the ns16550 driver which is quite handy and configurable. It works quite well and supports the shifted address bits to the external uart as well (PXA address pins 2-4 go to uart 0-2). There is a problem however with the compilation when using the external uart. On the PXA uart driver (in cpu/pxa/serial.c) the code is included always, there are no conditional like in the freescale processors. I patched this file to isolate this code if one wants to use another uart. The patch is attached. Using this config the object CONFIG_PXA_CONSOLE (this can be renamed obviously if the developers don't find it appropriate) has to be defined along with the CONFIG_BTUART, CONFIG_FFUART and CONFIG_STUART. Also attached is a patch for the davicom 9000 ethernet driver. When debugging is enabled the driver will not compile. Both patches are for u-boot 1.1.4. I know this is a user list, but I don'y know what are the appropriate channels for bug fixes. I have added two platforms (this one and a freescale one, based on MPC8275) to u-boot, should I sumbit patched for them as well? -- Angelos Manousarides

[U-Boot-Users] AT91 u-boot lowlevel init Dataflash
by Marco Cavallini 06 Jun '06

06 Jun '06

Hi, I am trying to use u-boot-1.1.4 with AT91RM9200 based board. Using Parallel flash all works perfectly, but if I try using u-boot stored in Dataflash i face to some problems and comparing two cases I see that CPU clock are different. Seems that is required a RomBoot provided by Atmel which launch u-boot. Is it really necessary ? Maybe I've miss an option that avoid RomBoot usage ? CONFIG_SKIP_LOWLEVEL_INIT seems used only with parallel flash, what when using Dataflash ? Boot from Dataflash : define CONFIG_SKIP_LOWLEVEL_INIT 1 Machine: Atmel AT91RM9200 Memory policy: ECC disabled, Data cache writeback Clocks: CPU 59 MHz, master 59 MHz, main 18.432 MHz ^^^^^^^^^^ Boot from Parallel flash : undef CONFIG_SKIP_LOWLEVEL_INIT Machine: Atmel AT91RM9200 Memory policy: ECC disabled, Data cache writeback Clocks: CPU 179 MHz, master 59 MHz, main 18.432 MHz ^^^^^^^^^^ Every hint will be appreciated TIA -- Marco Cavallini Koan s.a.s. - Bergamo - ITALIA Embedded and Real-Time Software Engineering www.KoanSoftware.com | www.KaeilOS.com Informativa D.Lgs 196/2003 (Privacy) http://www.koansoftware.com/it/prf_privacy.htm

[U-Boot-Users] How to change MPU frequency in U-Boot?
by phAntOm yAng 06 Jun '06

Dear All: My platform and environment are U-Boot 1.1.3+Linux 2.6.14-omap1 on omap5912osk. I try to change the value of MPU MHz, xtal MHz, dpll1 MHz. After reading the source code, I found two informations: 1)In u-boot-1.1.3/board/omap5912osk/platform.S VAL_ARM_CKCTL: .word 0x3000 VAL_DPLL1_CTL: .word 0x2830 2)in linux-2.6.14/arch/arm/mach-omap1/clock.h /*------------------------------------------------------------------------- * Omap1 MPU rate table *-------------------------------------------------------------------------*/ static struct mpu_rate rate_table[] = { /* MPU MHz, xtal MHz, dpll1 MHz, CKCTL, DPLL_CTL * NOTE: Comment order here is different from bits in CKCTL value: * armdiv, dspdiv, dspmmu, tcdiv, perdiv, lcddiv */ #if defined(CONFIG_OMAP_ARM_192MHZ) { 192000000, 19200000, 192000000, 0x050f, 0x2510 }, /* 1/1/2/2/8/8 */ { 192000000, 12000000, 192000000, 0x050f, 0x2810 }, /* 1/1/2/2/8/8 */ { 96000000, 12000000, 192000000, 0x055f, 0x2810 }, /* 2/2/2/2/8/8 */ { 48000000, 12000000, 192000000, 0x0baf, 0x2810 }, /* 4/4/4/8/8/8 */ { 24000000, 12000000, 192000000, 0x0fff, 0x2810 }, /* 8/8/8/8/8/8 */ #endif #if defined(CONFIG_OMAP_ARM_168MHZ) { 168000000, 12000000, 168000000, 0x010f, 0x2710 }, /* 1/1/1/2/8/8 */ #endif #if defined(CONFIG_OMAP_ARM_120MHZ) { 120000000, 12000000, 120000000, 0x010a, 0x2510 }, /* 1/1/1/2/4/4 */ #endif #if defined(CONFIG_OMAP_ARM_60MHZ) { 60000000, 12000000, 60000000, 0x0005, 0x2290 }, /* 1/1/1/1/2/2 */ #endif #if defined(CONFIG_OMAP_ARM_30MHZ) { 30000000, 12000000, 60000000, 0x0555, 0x2290 }, /* 2/2/2/2/2/2 */ #endif { 0, 0, 0, 0, 0 }, }; But I can't find a relationship between these informations. And are VAL_ARM_CKCTL and VAL_DPLL1_CTL the key value? Thanks, phantom yang -- ____________________________________________________ Get your own Hello Kitty email @ www.sanriotown.com 網炫技術支援
