Hi Masahiro,
your commit has been merged on 19.1. this year.
Today i ran a test on my tseries board with most current u-boot/master.
I ran into trouble booting my linux kernel:
---
Kernel image @ 0x80200000 [ 0x000000 - 0x222720 ]
## Loading init Ramdisk from Legacy Image at 80a00000 ...
Image Name:
Image Type: ARM Linux RAMDisk Image (uncompressed)
Data Size: 12452646 Bytes = 11.9 MiB
Load Address: 00000000
Entry Point: 00000000
## Flattened Device Tree blob at 80100000
Booting using the fdt blob at 0x80100000
ERROR: Failed to allocate 0xbe0326 bytes below 0x10000000.
ramdisk - allocation error
FDT creation failed! hanging...### ERROR ### Please RESET the board ###
---
I debugged bit am came to the conclusio, that the line
+ return gd->bd->bi_dram[0].size - (tmp - gd->bd->bi_dram[0].start);
brings me into trouble.
On my board DRAM is configured as follows:
U-Boot (BuR V2.0)# bdinfo
arch_number = 0xFFFFFFFF
boot_params = 0x80000100
DRAM bank = 0x00000000
*-> start = 0x80000000**
**-> size = 0x10000000**
*
so size minus start would give a negative number.
I tried local revert of this commit and everything works as before.
more correct would be
+ return gd->bd->bi_dram[0].start - (tmp - gd->bd->bi_dram[0].size);
whats your thinking about?
best regards,
Hannes
