Hi Daniel,
Hi Stefan,
I'll test this ASAP, but, in the meantime, please have a look at the
strange (and perhaps related) code in arch/mips/mach-mtmips/cpu.c
You are most likely referring to the code in last_stage_init() that
also deals with a potential cache issue. Its still unresolved and
this "hack" is still needed for a working U-Boot image (e.g. no timeouts
in tftp).
Yes, I was referring to that strange "D-cache" cleanup.
Why not just a cache-flush()?
Frankly, I don't remember the exact details. I definitely tested also
with cache_flush() but either it introduced too much boot delay or it
simply didn't work. This d-cache issue was (is) pretty nasty.
Its only partly related to the current issue though as it also deals
with "cache" but addresses a different issue. Please test and report
back.
Done.
Confirmed.
With new version in SPI NOR I could load (and execute successfully)
all versions I had saved on my tftp server.
Good. :)
If some further testing is useful don't hesitate to ask.
I'll send v2 in a minute. Please re-test it and send your tested-by, if
this also works for you.
Thanks,
Stefan
