Hi Stefan
Thanks for all the help in solving the problem. I have some questions
about submitting the patch and testing of the patch.
First of all I am working on proprietary board based on AMCC sequoia
board. Hence some of the files I changed are module specific like
config.mk in nand_spl/board/....and I also modified the following
lines in u-boot-nand.lds
cpu/ppc4xx/start.o (.text)
/* Align to next NAND block */
. = ALIGN(0x20000);
common/environment.o (.ppcenv)
/* Keep some space here for redundant env and potential bad env blocks */
. = ALIGN(0x80000);
Above is to allow some space for u-boot environment and possible bad
blocks. This file is also module specific.
Besides these two files I have changed nand_boot.c and ndfc.c.
Considering all this, how should I create this patch. Should I create
a patch for the sequoia board?
Also how are we going to test this patch? I'll make sure it meets all
the requirement in terms of coding style, etc but as far as testing
goes, I can only test on my board because sequoia reference board
comes only with 256Mb NAND flash.
Thanks
Nikhil
