Re: [U-Boot] Mips: start.S Questions

It seems to me that you may still be missing the point that a "b reset" is an unconditional jump, not a call, i.e. we will never return to the next instruction. A call would be a "bal reset", i.e. "branch and link" which puts the address of the next instruction into the $ra register. One would return with "jr $ra".

Yes, you're right, sorry. I wasn't thinking that through very far, now I know that is just goes to reset I'm continuing on.

I've done a fair bit of work with MIPS, so when it comes to instructions I'm actually fairly well versed (when I'm paying attention anyway!)
