Hi Ralph,

The bitflip test uses two equal sized memory buffers. This is achived
by splitting the range of memory into two pieces. The address of the
second buffer was not correctly calulated, thus the bitflip test would
calculated
accessing memory beyond the end of the specified range.
A second problem arises because u-boot "mtest" command expects the
ending address to be inclusive. When computing (end - start) this
results in missing 1 byte of the requested length. The bitflip test in
turn misses the last word.

TODO/FIXME: maybe the ending address should be automatically aligned?

Thanks for finding and fixing this:

Perhaps you could assign a variable to make the lines a bit shorter:
half_size = (end - start + 1) / 2 /
sizeof(unsigned long);
errs = test_bitflip_comparison(buf,
buf + half_size,
half_size);
?
Thanks,
Stefan
