AMCC suggested to set the PMU bit to 0 for best performace on
the PPC440 DDR controller.
Please see doc/README.440-DDR-performance for details.
Patch by Stefan Roese, 28 Jul 2006
- make highboot configurations use environment at high end, too,
to avoid flash fragmentation
- always use redundand environment
- don't enable video code for modules without graphics controller
- provide useful (though different) mtdparts settings
- get rid of CONFIG_CS_AUTOCONF which was always set anyway
* Extend mkconfig tool to print more useful target name
Hint: the CPLD on the TQM5200 must be programmed with a software
version supporting the high boot option! The new TQM5200S is
already supporting this option. On the TQM5200 this option will be
supported in configurations with MPC5200 rev B processors.
To actually "high boot", set jumper X30 on the STK52xx.
Patch by Martin Krause, 12 Jul 2006
- Support for TQM5200S (short version without graphic controller)
- Support for modules with 'N' type S29GL128N Spansion flashes
(requires changes to flash layout)
- Support for MPC5200B cpu (mostly support for second SDRAM bank)
The PS/2 keyobard driver for the TQM85xx modules only supports the
internal DUART of the MPC85xx CPU. Since the MPC8560 doesn't
include a DUART, the TQM8560 modules can't be used with the PS/2
keyboard controller on the STK85xx board.
The PS/2 keyboard driver should work with the modules TQM8540,
TQM8541 and TQM8555, but it only has been tested on a TQM8540, yet.
Make sure the PS/2 controller on the STK85xx is programmed. Jumper
settings: X66 1-2, 9-10; X61 2-3
Patch by Martin Krause, 21 Jun 2006
During an automatic update via USB stick, U-Boot searches for
images with the name "firmware.img" and "kernel.img". This names
are now changed to "firmw_01.img" and "kernl_01.img". This is done,
to prevent updates of new boards (with the new macronics "c" step
flashes) with old, incompatible firmware or kernel versions.
Patch by Martin Krause, 21 Jun 2006
- increase CFG_FLASH_ERASE_TOUT from 2 to 15 seconds
- use CFG_FLASH_WRITE_TOUT for programming instead of CFG_FLASH_ERASE_TOUT
- remove "Unlock Bypass" mode, because macronix flashes do not support
this mode officially
- fix flash reset command from 0x00FF to 0x00F0. 0x00FF is only specified
for Intel compatible flashes, not for AMD compatible.
