Great! I tried to figure out what's going on myself, but get stuck because I'm no ppc assembler expert. It seems, that the "DEAR" special purpose register is not available on the MPC885D (and other MPC8xx processors?)?
Hi Martin,
Could you please test with the attached patch? This switches to using DAR on all PPC variants that do not really have DEAR.
Sorry for the late response - I was out of office yesterday ...
Your patch works for me! I've successfully tested it with a MPC885D board (TQM885D) and a MPC866 board (TQM866M).
Thanks!
Best Regards, Martin Krause
