Dear Matthias,
In message 4F959612.7040903@arcor.de you wrote:
Because you will have the same address for "physical memory" in all instances of sandbox u-boot. This could simplify test scripts a bit. Imagine testing tftp downloads to memory where DRAM bank-> start is different for every program run. This was a PITA for me while testing the tap ethernet simulation for sandbox. And that is why I came up with the patch.
Agreed - though I would expect the mapping at least to be consistent through all runs of the same binary image.
Or is there something like $(ramstart) in u-boot?
Not yet - but it would be trivial to add.
Best regards,
Wolfgang Denk
