[U-Boot] Uboot Standalone Applications- Test_burst
Hi,
I am trying to run the uboot example - the standalone application, Test_burst to test my SRAM on Powerpc 440x5 board. Seems like the application always crashes when i try to execute the same and it always thrown some exception. When i checked the code i found that there are some opcodes which are not supported in ppc440x5 processor. And ppc440x5 also wont support creating a pagesize 8MB.
Please let me know if this application has to be rewritten or can be modified so that i can use it for ppc440x5 powered board.
Thanks & Regards, Vineeth V

No big surprise, I think.
If you look at the history of changes for this code, youc an see (in the first commit, ID 931da93e: "MPC8xx/PowerPC only").

Yes, the code has to be rewritten for other hardware. Thorough understanding of the inner workings will be needed to do that.
