Hi,
Is there any multithreading support or interrupt handler register mechanism in u-boot for mpc85xx based boards

Dear "asar",
In message 000001cc13f1$c3d42c90$4b7c85b0$@nucleodyne.us you wrote:

We do have interrupt support on PowerPC, but U-Boot is strictly single-threaded. And most drivers use polling only.
Sounds what you are looking for is an operating system, not a boot loader.
Best regards,
Wolfgang Denk
