Wolfgang,
Which board would that be? I don't see this on any board I tested.
it is mvblm7 (=MPC8343) and a new MPC8377 based one waiting for the merge window to open.
I'm using a gcc-4.3.3 from OpenEmbedded/Angstrom ... if this matters at all.
Can you please try and use anothe rtool chain, say good ole ELDK 4.2 for a test?
ok - that's it.
Compiling with ELDK 4.2 gives an environment as expected.
4 bytes crc32 + 1 byte redundancy flags + data :
mvBL-M7> md ff800000 10 ff800000: 56900c81 01626175 64726174 653d3131 V....baudrate=11 ff800010: 35323030 00626f6f 74617267 733d726f 5200.bootargs=ro
Using OpenEmbedded's (Angstrom) gcc 4.3.3 produces a corrupted layout with data having a 16-Bit alignment leading to a 1 byte offset when redundancy is used.
Will stick to ELDK 4.2 for U-Boot.
Problem solved, but I'm still irritated how easily things can be broken nowadays ...
Regards, André
