Agreed! I was about to respond to your new post, and then I discovered this nearly identical slightly older post.

The whole reason for BSS is to initialize variables to a 0/null value. Now, about the infinite loop. Can you check to see if perhaps you are getting an exception? I have no experience with the MPC8560, but I've seen a couple problems that occur involving memset_io. What happens is that a TLB miss exception occurs when the CPU gets inside of memset_io. Do you have the ability to check that with a debugger (by setting breakpoints at exceptions, such as the data and instruction TLB miss exceptions) to see if you are getting exceptions? _______________________________________________ Linuxppc-embedded mailing list Linuxppc-embedded@ozlabs.org https://ozlabs.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxppc-embedded
