Hi All,
I load linux from u-boot, and manage to go all the way until the call to
cpu_idle() from rest_init().
The system claims mounts a root file system over NFS. Sniffer logs and host
logs support this claim.
If I do a while ( 1 ) printk( whatever ), just before cpu_idle(), the system
continues to run.
If I let it call cpu_idle(), the system hangs.
If I powercycle the board, I see many occurences of exceptions in the log_buf.
They all claim there has
been an access to an invalid address as in "<4>Oops: kernel access of bad area,
sig: 11".
The exceptions are never printed and the 'bad address' is offset 0x1C from the
IMMR. The access
is from m8xx_get_irq().
Has anybody else faced similar problems?
Note: I had to workaround the
ppc_md.set_rtc_time = m8xx_set_rtc_time;
ppc_md.get_rtc_time = m8xx_get_rtc_time;
initialisations in m8xx_setup.c.
What additional modifications are needed for the MPC866?
Is there something broken in my setup?
Is there a need for additional information?
As I'm doing this without an emulator, I appreciate any ideas.
Thanks for your time. I appreciate any response,
Gil
