by Martin Krause 09 Nov '07

09 Nov '07

- insert partition for dtb blob to TQM5200B MTD layout - fix MTD layout for highboot configuration - set env variables dependent on the configured board (TQM5200 or TQM5200B) Signed-off-by: Martin Krause <martin.krause(a)tqs.de> --- If I receive no negative feedback, I'm going to pick this patch into the u-boot-tq-group.git custodian tree and do a pull-request, once the merge window has opened again.

[U-Boot-Users] [PATCH] MTD update
by William Juul 09 Nov '07

09 Nov '07

Update MTD to that of Linux 2.6.22.1 A lot changed in the Linux MTD code, since it was last ported from Linux to U-Boot. This patch takes U-Boot NAND support to the level of Linux 2.6.22.1 and will enable support for very large NAND devices (4KB pages) and ease the compatibility between U-Boot and Linux filesystems and drivers. This patch is tested on two custom boards with PPC and ARM processors running YAFFS in U-Boot and Linux using gcc-4.1.2 cross compilers. MAKEALL ppc/arm has some issues: * DOC/OneNand/nand_spl is not building (I have not tried porting these parts, and since I do not have any HW and I am not familiar with this code/HW I think its best left to someone else.) Except for the issues mentioned above, I have ported all drivers necessary to run MAKEALL ppc/arm without errors and warnings. Many drivers were trivial to port, but some were not so trivial. The following drivers must be examined carefully and maybe rewritten to some degree: cpu/ppc4xx/ndfc.c cpu/arm926ejs/davinci/nand.c board/delta/nand.c board/zylonite/nand.c Signed-off-by: William Juul <william.juul(a)datarespons.no> Signed-off-by: Stig Olsen <stig.olsen(a)tandberg.com> ---- We have set up a git repository were you can pull the patch: http://git.tandberg.com/tandberg/u-boot.git The master branch is tracking the official u-boot.git master branch. The branch mtd-update-1.3.0-rc3 is based on tag v1.3.0-rc3 The branch mtd-update will (eventually) continue to track u-boot updates and then spin off mtd-update-1.3.0 when v1.3.0 is released. The file drivers/nand/nand_base.c contains the struct nand_oob_128 which is not (yet) part of Linux mtd. I will try to figure out if this implementation is valid by asking on the linux-mtd mailing list.

[U-Boot-Users] Boot from USB using LPC2468OEM Board
by Nilson Bastos Jr 09 Nov '07

09 Nov '07

Hi ALL, Is there anybody able to boot from USB using the Embedded Artists LPC2468 OEM board ? I'm in trouble even to get the 1.3 version compilable for this board because Embedded Artists supplies a patch just for 1.1.6 version that doesn't have USB support. Is there anywhere where I can find the patches for the 1.3 version ? I thank you in advance for the help. Best Regards Nilson

[U-Boot-Users] Do we need ipv6 enhancement for u-boot?
by 夏竹青 08 Nov '07

08 Nov '07

Hi all, Recently,I'm just investigating about u-boot,something about ipv6 is confused me. I can find the definition of ipv6 address table entry in file \drivers\e1000.h, but nothing else about ipv6 using. So do we need support ipv6 in dhcp and tftp?

[U-Boot-Users] Compilation warning in common/cmd_ide.c
by Stefan Roese 08 Nov '07

08 Nov '07

Hi Marcel, Commit 2a4741d9a14ec475f50e9856d2c0a67e8b4271bd "[PATCH] fix pxa255_idp board" maybe fixes a problem on ARM boards, but unfortunately introduces a compile warning on PPC platforms like CPCI405: cmd_ide.c: In function 'ide_ident': cmd_ide.c:1139: warning: pointer targets in passing argument 1 of 'ident_cpy' differ in signedness cmd_ide.c:1140: warning: pointer targets in passing argument 1 of 'ident_cpy' differ in signedness cmd_ide.c:1141: warning: pointer targets in passing argument 1 of 'ident_cpy' differ in signedness I'm wondering if you see this warning on your ARM platform too. Could you please recheck and perhaps revert this patch? Is this change in part.h really needed? Does it fix an existing problem?

[U-Boot-Users] Debugging 85xx eTSEC's
by robert lazarski 07 Nov '07

07 Nov '07

Hi all, Using u-boot from the latest git, I'm trying to debug our phy's on our custom 8548 board. Our eTSEC0 / eTSEC1 are mavell 88E1121 and eTSEC2 / eTSEC3 are 88E1111 - I'm trying to debug eTSEC2 since the 88E1111 seems to be supported by u-boot. I get this output from the serial port in debug mode: eTSEC1 is in sgmii mode. eTSEC2 is in sgmii mode. eTSEC3 is in sgmii mode. eTSEC4 is in sgmii mode. Net: eTSEC0: PHY is Unknown/Generic PHY (ffffffff) eTSEC1: PHY is Unknown/Generic PHY (ffffffff) eTSEC2: PHY is Unknown/Generic PHY (ffffffff) eTSEC3: PHY is Unknown/Generic PHY (ffffffff) eTSEC0, eTSEC1, eTSEC2, eTSEC3 Where 'is in sgmii mode' comes from standard 85xx stuff: I can't ping when setting ethact to be eTSEC2, and I get this when running 'mii info' : => mii info PHY_PHYIDR2 @ 0x0 = 0xffff PHY_PHYIDR2 @ 0x1 = 0xffff PHY_PHYIDR2 @ 0x2 = 0xffff PHY_PHYIDR2 @ 0x3 = 0xffff Can't read PHY at address 4 ...

[U-Boot-Users] Generic FPGA patch from Matthias
by Bruce_Leonard＠selinc.com 07 Nov '07

07 Nov '07

Matthias, Back in August you were looking for some input on changes to the generic FPGA code. Discussion went round and round for a few days and then at the end of it all you said you were going to submit a patch "soon". Did you ever do that? I don't see anything in the latest download of the changes that were discussed. If not, I'll go ahead and float a patch for the things that I've changed for my custom board that line up with the things you were talking about. Bruce
