Hi, Current interrupt vectors[1] are piggy backing on OMAP3 ROM Code vectors This has the disadvantage that "external boot" option of OMAP GP devices for booting off NOR devices would probably not function as the interrupt vectors are not setup.
In general we want to limit dependencies of ROM code. And it should be moved to omap3 so other cortexa8 users don't have to code around it. Like we did for the cache flushing.
I had faced this during the port of u-boot-v2 and had done an implementation[2] for this. would we be interested in pulling this back in for u-boot-v1? I suppose all OMAP3 devices could benefit from it.
Poking around it does not look like any of the omap boards define CONFIG_USE_IRQ so it seems like you really will be creating the interrupt handlers. I think this is a good idea as long as the existing non-interrupts still works. I would be happy to test whatever you want to do. Should we set up a special ti-omap-irq topic branch ?
