We're looking at using a DoC on our next product and I was wondering how
the drivers (obviously supplied by M-Systems) are merged into U-Boot code?
One of the newer P3 chips has an IPL section which is "execute in place"
and would contain early initialization code for the cpu/board/SDRAM and
then copy the body of the code into SDRAM. This idea sounds good for cost
reasons (one device) but seems like an ugly hack to the structure of
U-Boot. Any comments?
Regards, Herb
