I also think the 1.2.0 is an ancient version, so I migrate my u-boot from 1.2.0 to u-boot-2009-08 yestoday, the same "Unknown Flash Bank" problem happened. I changed a little in the common files, all of which I think should not lead to this "Unknown Flash Bank" problem. I use MPC8247, and all my changes are:
Which exact board are you using?
- in /common/env_common.c, I add my environment variables to array
default_environment.
Bad, very bad. You should never meddle with this file. You should add your custom settings to your board config file only.
- in /cpu/mpc8260/cpu_init.c, in function cpu_init_f, I common this line
"immr->im_clkrst.car_rsr = RSR_ALLBITS;", because I will need RSR register value later 3. in /cpu/mpc8260/serial_smc.c, we use BRG1 for SMC1 instead of BRG7
You are not supposed to meddle with these files. No changes to such common files are necessary to port U-Boot to custom hardware.
- in /include/mpc8260.h, we add a hardware dog kick function, and modified
functiion "reset_8260_watchdog" a little to kick the hardware dog. 5. in /common/main.c, we add support to the two jumper on our board, which is just two "if... else...".
Such changes should be done in board specific code, not in common files.
- in our board specific files, they all works fine before and I did not
change a thing. Make all the changes above, the u-boot works fine. then I modified the /common/cmd_mem.c, we make the mtest command to test memory only once(in CFG_ALT_MEMTEST mode). I change the "for(;;)" to for(;iterations == 1;)", then the "Unknown Flash Bank" happens. I printed out the 4 Flash IDs, the Manufacture Id changes from 0x01(normal) to 0x808(wrong!!), other IDs are all normal.
This makes zero sense to me.
I understand you have a custom board with local modifications. That means we don't know neither your hardware nor your code, which makes it impossible to help. From the symptoms you describe, there must be something fundamentally broken with your port, but without seeing your code we cannot even guess what this might be.
Best regards,
