Hello,

I have added interrupt support for armv7 platform, by implementing the do_irq and irq_install_handler and arch_interrupt_init functions.

Initially default_isr is the handler function installed for all the interrupts.

From my standalone application, I am enabling the interrupts and

installing

...

the handler to be called for my peripheral interrupt.

If I don't install my handler, U-Boot executes default_isr successfully.

If I use my handler, when the interrupt occurs I am getting the prefetch abort exception with the following dump prefetch abort pc : [<ebd78002>] lr : [<bff8f720>] sp : bfeef200 ip : bfeef358 fp : bfef1d48 r10: bfef1d78 r9 : 00000002 r8 : bfeeff58 r7 : bffac284 r6 : 60000153 r5 : bffbb5c0 r4 : 00000000 r3 : bffab29c r2 : 00000000 r1 : 000003e8 r0 : 8500178c Flags: nZCv IRQs off FIQs off Mode IRQ_32 Resetting CPU ...

Can any one please help me to solve this?

You're the best suited to tell, since you're the only one who can read or test the code, so the following question is just a wild guess: does the interrupt handler properly save (and restore) the interrupted context, and does it properly establish (and dispose of) its own context?

Thank you all for the suggestions

I found that, using "printf" statement within my ISR is causing the prefetch abort.

Well, it usually isn't a good idea to try and use such functions as printf() within an interrupt handler, if only because you might have interrupted a call to printf(), and printf() might not be re-entrant, which could explain the abort you see.

Besides, even with a re-entrant printf() implementation, interrupting printf() to do a printf() will propably result in mangled output.
