My tree has the precalculated ddr timing patch: U-Boot/SPL: omap4: Make ddr pre-calculated timings as default. All ddr configurations(geometry/timings) are done automatically by detecting the device connected at run time. Though this is a useful feature, making this as a default setting increases the code size by about 2K bytes. This is quite big, especially in the case of SPL which runs from a smaller SRAM. So do not use this feature as the default setting, instead use the precalculated tables.

My tree has a bunch of extra patches on top and is based on rc2. I know it works: http://git.linaro.org/gitweb?p=boot/u-boot-linaro-stable.git;a=summary My -next tree has had no testing because I only just put it together. It is nearly identical to the above but rebased to v2011.09 final: http://git.linaro.org/gitweb?p=boot/u-boot-linaro-next.git;a=summary Let me know how it goes. --john _______________________________________________ U-Boot mailing list U-Boot@lists.denx.de http://lists.denx.de/mailman/listinfo/u-boot
