If CFG_MEM_TOP_HIDE is defined in the board config header, this specified
memory area will get subtracted from the top (end) of ram and won't get
"touched" at all by U-Boot. By fixing up gd->ram_size the Linux kernel
should gets passed the now "corrected" memory size and won't touch it
either. This should work for arch/ppc and arch/powerpc. Only Linux board
ports in arch/powerpc with bootwrapper support, which recalculate the
memory size from the SDRAM controller setup, will have to get fixed
in Linux additionally.
This patch enables this config option on some PPC440EPx boards as a workaround
for the CHIP 11 errata. Here the description from the AMCC documentation:
CHIP_11: End of memory range area restricted access.
Category: 3
Overview:
The 440EPx DDR controller does not acknowledge any
transaction which is determined to be crossing over the
end-of-memory-range boundary, even if the starting address is
within valid memory space. Any such transaction from any PLB4
master will result in a PLB time-out on PLB4 bus.
Impact:
In case of such misaligned bursts, PLB4 masters will not
retrieve any data at all, just the available data up to the
end of memory, especially the 440 CPU. For example, if a CPU
instruction required an operand located in memory within the
last 7 words of memory, the DCU master would burst read 8
words to update the data cache and cross over the
end-of-memory-range boundary. Such a DCU read would not be
answered by the DDR controller, resulting in a PLB4 time-out
and ultimately in a Machine Check interrupt. The data would
be inaccessible to the CPU.
Workaround:
Forbid any application to access the last 256 bytes of DDR
memory. For example, make your operating system believe that
the last 256 bytes of DDR memory are absent. AMCC has a patch
that does this, available for Linux.
This patch sets CFG_MEM_TOP_HIDE for the following 440EPx boards:
lwmon5, korat, sequoia
The other remaining 440EPx board were intentionally not included
since it is not clear to me, if they use the end of ram for some
other purpose. This is unclear, since these boards have CONFIG_PRAM
defined and even comments like this:
PMC440.h:
/* esd expects pram at end of physical memory.
* So no logbuffer at the moment.
*/
It is strongly recommended to not use the last 256 bytes on those
boards too. Patches from the board maintainers are welcome.

R29 was an unlucky choice as with recent toolchains (gcc-4.2.x) gcc
will refuse to use load/store multiple insns; instead, it issues a
list of simple load/store instructions upon function entry and exit,
resulting in bigger code size, which in turn makes the build for a
few boards fail.
Use r2 instead.

Hello,
Attached is a patch providing support for multiple I2C buses at the
command level. The second part of the patch includes an implementation
for the MPC834x CPU and MPC8349EMDS board.

Overview:
1. Include new 'i2c' command (based on USB implementation) using
CONFIG_I2C_CMD_TREE.
2. Allow multiple buses by defining CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS. Note that
the commands to change bus number and speed are only available under the
new 'i2c' command mentioned in the first bullet.
3. The option CFG_I2C_NOPROBES has been expanded to work in multi-bus
systems. When CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS is used, this option takes the form
of an array of bus-device pairs. Otherwise, it is an array of uchar.
CHANGELOG:
Added new 'i2c' master command for all I2C interaction. This is
conditionally compiled with CONFIG_I2C_CMD_TREE. New commands added for
setting I2C bus speed as well as changing the active bus if the board
has more than one (conditionally compiled with
CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS). Updated NOPROBE logic to handle multiple buses.
Updated README.
regards,
Ben
1. Add 7447A and 7448 processor support.
2. Add the following flags.
CFG_CONFIG_BUS_CLK : If the 74xx bus frequency can be configured dynamically
(such as by switch on board), this flag should be set.
CFG_EXCEPTION_AFTER_RELOCATE: If an exception occurs after the u-boot
relocates to RAM, this flag should be set.
CFG_SERIAL_HANG_IN_EXCEPTION: If the print out function will cause the
system hang in exception, this flag should be set.
