RE: [U-Boot-Users] What areas of SDRAM are used by u-boot

This is what gets printed when I boot my board. Also you can find it out by looking at the TEXT_ADDR defined in
boards/xxxxx/config.mk file.

I don't see them. Do I need to enable any debug options?

hi, u-boot prints the area of SDRAM it uses. Just check the messages on your terminal emulator. regards -kshitij

Hi,
I am trying to define the area of SDRAM that is to be tested using mtest. How can I determine what areas of SDRAM are used by u-boot so I don't trample on it by mistake?

This seems no really useful to me. Normally, U-Boot will be place at the END of the available RAM, while you seem tp place it in the middle?
This is what gets printed when I boot my board. Also you can find it out by looking at the TEXT_ADDR defined in boards/xxxxx/config.mk file.
I guess you mean TEXT_BASE - but this is habdled differently on different architectures.
On PowerPC this just defines where U-Boot gets installed in flash. On ARM (which is still broken in this respect) it means the address where it gets copied to in RAM. I hope this gets fixed one day.
