Hi,
Why do you need to access all 2GB from u-boot?
I need only to recognize the real memory size and pass the value to Linux.
If I return the real value 2GB from my initdram() U-boot does not like that and resets the board.
Our devices have to support different DDR types and sizes (512/1024/2048 MB), so U-boot is responsible for DDR init and reporting its size to Linux...
From your answer I understand that U-boot does not support >1GB of memory
for MPC83xx. Is it correct?
Best regards, Valeriy Glushkov

Hi Guys!
On my mpc8347 based board I can access 1GB of DDR with mapping 4 of 256MB ranges via IBAT\DBAT registers.
But with the 2 GB of DDR it's impossible to map them with BATs (there are only 8 BATs in the e300 core and the rest 4 of them are already used).
All the mpc83xx examples in the U-boot tree seem to use <=1GB of SDRAM, so they use BATs to map them.
Any suggestions are highly appreciated.
