[PATCH] Actions: S700 Calculate SDRAM size
Calculate the SDRAM size from DDR capacity register registers instead of using hard-coded value. This is quite useful to get correct size on differnt boards based on S700 SoC.
There is no documentation available that talks about DDR registers, and this is very much taken from vendor source.
This commit lets Linux boot on Cubieboard7-lite (based on S700).

Wasn't really aware that working on a board (CubieBoard7-Lite) that actually has only 1GB of RAM untill I see the Kernel crash[1], and DDR size is hard-coded to 2GB(as CubieBoard7 comes with 2 GB). With this set-up Kernel was trying to access the memory that doesn't exist leads to the crash.

Have you checked if this setting can be reused for S900? IMO we should use this helper for all Owl SoCs. Using CONFIG_SYS_SDRAM_SIZE won't scale.
Thanks, Mani

Hi,
Have you checked if this setting can be reused for S900? IMO we should use this helper for all Owl SoCs. Using CONFIG_SYS_SDRAM_SIZE won't scale.
Looks like S900 uses different registers to find out the size, but can't really test this as I don't have the Hardware based on S900.
Thanks -Amit.
