Hi all, Can anybody tell me how to make uncached a region of memory on the PowerQUICCII (MPC8280). The region is allocated with kmalloc(size,GFP_KERNEL | GFP_DMA); TIA, Alex

consistent_alloc() on 82xx

2005-06-10 Thread Alex Zeffertt
Hi Dan, You need to be more clear with your terms. Only the 60x core uses the cache. The CPM is a DMA device that can utilize cache coherency protocols if you enable that with the GBL flags. Ah, I see. If the CPM DMA is configured to snoop the cache then that doesn't mean it uses the

Pins on the 8xx are highly configurable. I recommend that you check that the pin has not been configured for another function. For example on the 862 the SIU_IRQ7 pin doubles as the MII tx clock. Alex On Wed, 15 Jun 2005 10:35:41 +0200 scarayol at assystembrime.com wrote: Hi all, I wrote

SELF and JFFS2????

2002-06-26 Thread Alex Zeffertt
Maybe you could change the Makefile so that it creates symbolic links to /bin/busybox instead of hardlinks. The only drawback to this is that you end up using one inode per link, instead of one inode for all the links. As long as you've got the space to waste this won't be a problem. Alex

printk in m8xx_cpm_dpalloc() ???

2002-04-24 Thread Alex Zeffertt
I had the same problem. printk() uses the CPM UART driver, and the initialisation of the CPM UART driver uses m8xx_cpm_dpalloc(). If you make m8xx_cpm_dpalloc() use printk() then you create a dependency loop. Don't do it. Alex Steven Scholz wrote: Hi there, I thought I put a printk
