These series of patch add support for atheros ath79 based SOCs in
u-boot, at the present moment it's just available for ar933x and
qca953x chip.
This patch serises is based on mips_io_v4 branch on u-boot-mips
repository
[1] and tested on ar933x and qca953x board.

So if I didn't complain about this being sent as separate emails this
morning.
Please, do send your patches as a series, not as separate emails.
How to send a patch series by patman?
If your git-sendmail config is correctly set up, patman automatically
sends the cover letter and then all patches as response to that cover
letter.
You have to enable mail threading in git-sendmail. Check that with:
$ git config --get sendemail.thread
To enable it globally:
$ git config --global sendemail.thread true
Thanks, i will try it for the coming v8.
I got as far as booting my ar9330 rev 1 machine, though it did take considerably
amount of hackery. I also had to use locked cachelines for stack, because it is
far faster than using the SRAM on ar9331 . You can find my hacks in the
attachment, most of the stuff there is because arduino yun is repugnant crappy
piece of hardware and needs some extra treatment.
My board is also ar9330 rev 1, but i can boot well without any change for
start.s and cache, is it possible about hardware?
My board work fine when i use DDR or SRAM for stack.
You should mostly care about the hacks in start.S , in particular the one
setting bit 3 in CP0 in setup_c0_status seems important on mips 24kc core.
Daniel seems to have some ideas on this too I think, he helped me finding
out there's a problem.
Also, mips_cache_lock_24k does the job for locking the cachelines, but (!) it
is clearly a dirty hack. The start.S needs to be modularized in some way for
this to be properly integrat(ed|able).
In case I select SYS_MIPS_CACHE_INIT_RAM_LOAD , the machine hangs. No idea why,
but I suspect it makes no sense on a machine which has no running DRAM anyway,
so I removed this option.
My hardware can work no matter if i select SYS_MIPS_CACHE_INIT_RAM_LOAD.
I doubt whether there are same exceptions for your memory subsystem, or
some DDR parameters are not for your DDR chip.
Change to ddr.c seems correct, the values for DDR1 and DDR2 were swapped, but
I suggest you double-check it.
Did your board use DDR1?
I check the original u-boot code again, this value 0xa33 is for DDR2,
0x33 for DDR1. The 0 value for WR filed in DDR2 MRS is reserved.
Ignore my AHB hack in lowlevel_init.S , it's necessary to keep my SPI NOR
running at low speed, since I am using an FPGA instead of real SPI NOR and
the FPGA implementation of the SPI NOR emulator cannot run at tens of MHz.
I am now looking into implementing ethernet and USB support for ar9331, did
you look into it at all or not ? I'd like to avoid duplicating efforts.
At present, i have no plan to involve ethernet and USB, i want to work
done first for this patch.
