arch/powerpc, Xilinx, and mainline kernel support

2008-05-16 Thread Koss, Mike (Mission Systems)
Is there any reason why the mainline 2.6.25.3 (and from what I could see .4) is missing the files to build for the Xilinx Virtex platform? Or in other words, I tried to build from 2.6.25.3 for the Xilinx Virtex under arch/powerpc (because arch/ppc actually crashes when once apps start to run) and

John Thanks for your suggestions. I looked up the virtual address for __log_buf in System.map and subtracted 0xc000 to get the physical address. I then reset the processor from XMD and dump contents of the physical address of __log_buf using 'mrd' command from XMD. All I see is bunch of zer

OCM instruction memory

Dear all, I have a problem with OCM instruction memory. When I create a simple hardware design without OCM instruction memory, I can easily run Linux on it. But, when I add an OCM instruction cache with the size 128K, the system freezes at this point: loaded at: 0040 004CE1A0 board data at
