[U-Boot-Users] Will the real ISR please stand up?

[Russell, Don]

Hi,

 

On  a 440gx platform I wrote  a small stand alone app for debugging.  I
tried to

Hook the ISR at 0x700 and use a trap instruction.  

 

I replaced the isr routine w/my own.   In the process I discovered the
isr at 0x700 does nothing except store the 

Address of the service routine and return handler at addresses 0x788 and
0x78c. 

 

  I stubbed the entire routine

And it still works as long as the above addresses are there.

 

  How does u-boot execute a trap instruction without 

Executing at least a branch instruction from the trap location 0x700?
IVPR and IVOR6 are set correctly.

 

How does it get to the global transfer_to_handler routine??

 

Thanks

Don Russell
