Hi again,

I tried implementing the irq support for at91sam9261ek taking the help
of the list archive.

I configured AIC for interrupt and also the PIO lines. I also tried to
enable interrupt on the arm controller. But I am stuck again, u-boot
hangs at these particular instructions which is used to enable
interrupt on arm

mrs r1, cpsr
bic r1, r1, #0x80
msr cpsr_c, r1    /* It hangs precisely at this instruction */

I am just trying learn about u-boot.
what exactly am I doing wrong? Please help.
