[LEDE-DEV] Separate dts for Cavium routers
Hi. I'm struggling with Cavium based routers from Cisco trying to port them to LEDE. I do it in spare time but it get more and more complicated (especially board detection) and i would like to ask you - is it good idea to disable CONFIG_BUILTIN_DTB, create separate dts for Ubiquity ER and ERLITE and append them at image build process? Do LEDE support any other Cavium routers? I do not have access to any Ubiquity routers so i will not be able to test if this method works. Also, from kernel version 4.4 we have CONFIG_MIPS_CMDLINE_FROM_DTB option so cmdline patch could be no more needed Do you like the idea? I'm aware it could be too dificult for me but i'll try. Or could someone provide patches? Regards, Michal ___ Lede-dev mailing list Lede-dev@lists.infradead.org http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/lede-dev
[LEDE-DEV] cavium: Ignore MEM boot param when too small
Cisco RV0XX u-boot sets MEM=2048 as boot param. We assume that at least 4MB (mem_alloc_size) of ram is needed to run linux on cavium boards, so if mem < 4M - ignore it and set default value Signed-off-by: Michał Osowiecki <michal.osowie...@gmail.com> --- a/arch/mips/cavium-octeon/setup.c 2016-06-06 18:15:32.0 +0200 +++ b/arch/mips/cavium-octeon/setup.c 2016-06-08 15:28:56.642919151 +0200 @@ -941,6 +941,11 @@ * to consistently work. */ mem_alloc_size = 4 << 20; + + /* Ignore bootarg MEM <= 4MB */ + if (MAX_MEMORY <= mem_alloc_size) + MAX_MEMORY = 512ull << 20; + if (mem_alloc_size > MAX_MEMORY) mem_alloc_size = MAX_MEMORY; ___ Lede-dev mailing list Lede-dev@lists.infradead.org http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/lede-dev
