Why are your patches different from everyone else's? When I try to apply this, I get errors because it can't find "powerpc/cpu/mpc85xx...". git am leaves off the first directory, because the usual practice is to send patches with these filenames: diff --git a/arch/powerpc/cpu/mpc85xx/start.S b/arch/powerpc/cpu/mpc85xx/start.S I fixed it by hand, but let's not make that a habit. Is there some setting that I don't have that would make it so I could ignore this? > index 8d66cf1..4973682 100644 > --- arch/powerpc/cpu/mpc85xx/start.S > +++ arch/powerpc/cpu/mpc85xx/start.S > @@ -848,18 +848,12 @@ version_string: > .globl _start_cont > _start_cont: > /* Setup the stack in initial RAM,could be L2-as-SRAM or L1 dcache*/ > - lis r1,CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR@h > - ori r1,r1,CONFIG_SYS_INIT_SP_OFFSET@l > - > + lis r3,(CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR)@h > + ori r3,r3,((CONFIG_SYS_INIT_SP_OFFSET-16)&~0xf)@l /* Align to 16 > */ > li r0,0 > - stwu r0,-4(r1) > - stwu r0,-4(r1) /* Terminate call chain */ > - > - stwu r1,-8(r1) /* Save back chain and move SP */ > - lis r0,RESET_VECTOR@h /* Address of reset vector */ > - ori r0,r0,RESET_VECTOR@l > - stwu r1,-8(r1) /* Save back chain and move SP */ > - stw r0,+12(r1) /* Save return addr (underflow vect) > */ > + stw r0,0(r3) /* Terminate Back Chain */ > + stw r0,+4(r3) /* NULL return address. */ > + mr r1,r3 /* Transfer to SP(r1) */ > > GET_GOT > bl cpu_init_early_f > -- > 1.7.3.4 > > _______________________________________________ > U-Boot mailing list > U-Boot@lists.denx.de > http://lists.denx.de/mailman/listinfo/u-boot _______________________________________________ U-Boot mailing list U-Boot@lists.denx.de http://lists.denx.de/mailman/listinfo/u-boot
