The board is arm920t based and it's UART port is compatible with ns16550.c so I changed the serial driver (serial.c) on the cpu/arm920t directory with the serial driver + ns16650 module available in the drivers directory. I am using bdi2k for debugging and I have initialized the UART port on the bdi2k config. The problem is that when the initialization routine in armboot_start calls serial_init of the ns16550, there are no messages, i.e. no prompt, on my serial console. When I remove the serial_init on the list of initialization functions of armboot_start, a prompt appears. I can successfully type help, and do other stuff. Whenever I try to remove the initialization routine on my BDI2k configuration and put back the serial_init function on the initialization list, I am not getting any messages on my serial console. What could be the cause of this problem? The initialization routine on the bdi2k and serial_init are almost the same (i tried to make the sequence and the values exactly the same but I get the same result) but there are no messages displayed on my console. =( Thank you very much for your help.

First, this may work fior you, but it will not work for me. It does not work on PowerPC, and it does not work on MIPS for example. And it does not work if you have configured your BDI200 as recommended, i. e. that it works with a mostly virgin CPU. > Of course this assumes, that your BDI configuration file has setup > memory controller correctly and you can access the RAM. > > Any comments? Yes, This is one of the many things you can do if you know what you are doing. If you don't have a clue it will just cause more problems and questions.

I used an SDRAM driver which works normally in VxWorks. But when I call the relocate_code() funtion, there is an error of byte ordinary. If I write a number to memory, the higher 16 bits exchange position with lower 16 bits. For an example, if I write 0x2705,1956 to sdram, then I get 0x1956,2705 when I read the memory address. But I can read or write flash correctly. I read chapter 13.2.3 of the guild file. There is an argument related to my problem. >Argument: >But my board ran fine with bootloader XYZ and/or operating system ABC. >Answer: >Double-check your configuration that you claim runs properly... >Are you sure the SDRAM is initialized using the same init sequence and values? >Are you sure the memory controlling registers are set the same? Are you >sure your other configuration uses caches and/or DMA? If it doesn't, it isn't a valid comparison. I checked these issues, and I am sure that the init sequence and memory controlling registers are as same as the VxWorks'. But also, BDI2000 can read or write memory exactly with same init sequence. The only difference is my VxWorks system didn't use DMA function. At first, I am doubltful of wrong endian mode. Then I checked correlated register. MSR register is 0x1002 and DC_CST register is 0. I think it should be right. This problem puzzled me so much, and any clue given to me will be apreciated!
