Dear Stefan,
I think this comment in arch/powerpc/cpu/ppc4xx/start.S needs a bit of
cleanup:
51 /* U-Boot - Startup Code for AMCC 4xx PowerPC based Embedded Boards
52 *
53 *
54 * The processor starts at 0xfffffffc and the code is executed
55 * from flash/rom.
56 * in memory, but as long we don't jump around before relocating.
57 * board_init lies at a quite high address and when the cpu has
58 * jumped there, everything is ok.
59 * This works because the cpu gives the FLASH (CS0) the whole
60 * address space at startup, and board_init lies as a echo of
61 * the flash somewhere up there in the memorymap.
62 *
63 * board_init will change CS0 to be positioned at the correct
64 * address and (s)dram will be positioned at address 0
65 */
All this makes pretty little sense to me.
Thanks.
Best regards,
Wolfgang Denk
