Dear U-boot maintainers,
I'm working on an Xilinx Zynqmp project ( Checkout tag xilinx-v2019.1 https://github.com/Xilinx/u-boot-xlnx/tree/xilinx-v2019.1 ) (ARM Cortex A53 ) and I'm facing an endianess mix-up. I'm no C-code guru, so I hope you'll stick here with me for a while.
In this example I'm performing a random crc check, the result was placed into memory.
* ZynqMP> crc32 0x8000 0x8002 0x7999 * crc32 0x8000 0x8002 * crc32 for 00008000 ... 00010001 ==> 0c9cf37c
This is the result of the CRC read-back:
* ZynqMP> md 7999 1 * 00007999: 7cf39c0c
Also the itest confirms something is wrong with the result.
* ZynqMP> if itest *7999 == 7cf39c0c; then echo true; else echo false; fi * true
* ZynqMP> if itest *7999 == 0c9cf37c; then echo true; else echo false; fi * false
I know there was an historic bug https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/uboot/patch/1365203470-9099-1-git-send-email-sjg@chromium.org/ about the crc endianess describing this exact problem but this issue seems to be addressed in later releases, as far as I know.
Uboot Xilinx crc32.c L172 https://github.com/Xilinx/u-boot-xlnx/blob/xilinx-v2019.1/lib/crc32.c#L172
Can you give any advice how to proceed?
Kind regards,
Wouter Joris
