Hai

I am trying to understand the flow of u-boot loader running on FADS
MPC823 PPC core.

Now i am struck up in the function relocate_code (addr_sp, id, addr);
called by the file /lib-ppc/board.c .
The comment says /* NOTREACHED - relocate_code() does not return */
This assembly function resides in /cpu/mpc8xx/start.s 
What is the address value loaded into Link register before the final
instruction BLR in the above function has become a mystry for me ?
Due to which I am not able track where does it jump out from this
function.

If anybody can deciphere this it would be very much appreciable.

Thanks and Regards
