Dear Stefan Roese,
In message 200901301129.00489.sr@denx.de you wrote:
- Support for POST for canyonlands board is present.
Yes. General POST support for PPC4xx is available. Could be that the CPU specific POST test (like UART, EMAC etc) have to be adapter for 460EX though.
This must be checked thoroughly!
- To enable POST for canyonlands board, I only have to define the required
macros.
Yes. And IIRC add a small board specific function (post_hotkeys_pressed()). You can clone this function from kilauea again.
No. Adaption for the board must be done thoroughly, too - for example, the I2C POST needs to know the list of I2C addresses on the board, etc. All this must be verified carefully.
- I do not have to add / modify code to test the peripherals on
the canyonlands board.
What peripherals are you referring to? Kilauea has the following POST tests defined/enabled by default:
This is obviously only a very minimal sub-set of the POST code.
Again, it's very likely that the UART and/or EMAC tests have to be adapter for 460EX. I don't think POST has been tested on 460EX before.
It has not.
Best regards,
Wolfgang Denk
