I was working with Motorola about a year ago on USB on the MPC850. At that time, we were already using the I2C/SPI relocation patch. The word from the factory was that you couldn't use more than one microcode patch at a time on an '850. I doubt this has changed since then. There was a first attempt at a single patch for I2C/SPI relocation combined with USB. I don't know if it was ever released.

Day; Embedded Linux PPC list Subject: Re: more questions about 8xx microcode patches Robert, I know I've never had a need to use a microcode patch. Maybe a quick survey - has anybody ever had a need to use two patches at once? I'm suspecting you may be putting a lot of effort into something that's rarely needed. Also, as Motorola updates their silicon the patches will likely become less relevant (less likely that new users will need the patches). Mark Chambers ** Sent via the linuxppc-embedded mail list.
