[U-Boot-Users] Configuring U-Boot for MPC8349E in little endian mode

Hi, We are using MPC8349E based board in big endian mode. It is working fine with U-Boot 1.1.3 . Now due to some reason we have to configure 8349E in little endian mode. I have modified RCW, HID2 and MSR registers for this and built the U-Boot with -mlittle-endian(gcc 3.4.3) and -EL (ld option ).

Now code is starting properly in Start.S but it is jumping to alignment vector(0x600) whenever it hits a branch instruction(b , bl). Then it stops at 0x63F in alignment exception vector handler.

Has any one tried configuring U-Boot for MPC8349E in little endian mode ...? We have also tried to build U-Boot with -mstrict-align option, but it has not helped us. Are we missing any alignment option in gcc for compiling U-Boot.

Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks, Vivek Trivedi
