I think it would be better to provide both address and data DCR register numbers (DCRNs) in the first parameter, separated by "." or ":", like this:
getidcr e.f 40
or simple (omitted data DCRN will be 0xE+1=0xF as you have suggested):
getidcr e 40
This is more "u-bootish" style I deem (it's used in cp command for example). This way offset will always be the second parameter which is more convenient.
Help line will look like this:
=> help getidcr getidcr addr_dcrn[.data_dcrn] offset
- return a value of register, addressed indirectly via DCR. data_dcrn
is assumed to be addr_dcrn+1 if not specified.
OK.
Yes, you should definitely disable the interrupts in this function.
What is simplest way of doing that for PPC440? I mean, should I insert asm into C code, or u-boot already has something better to use?
You could use the enable_interrupts() and disable_interrupts() calls.
