About va_start in the U-Boot
by Aubrey 04 Jan '05

Hi, I get a big headache when porting u-boot to the MPC8540 system. the problem is in the "printf" function of the "console.c" file, the following is the dump file ------------------------------------------------------------------------ void printf (const char *fmt, ...) { fff99308: 94 21 fe 50 stwu r1,-432(r1) fff9930c: 7c 08 02 a6 mflr r0 fff99310: 90 01 01 b4 stw r0,436(r1) fff99314: 39 61 00 0c addi r11,r1,12 va_list args; uint i; char printbuffer[CFG_PBSIZE]; va_start (args, fmt); fff99318: 38 00 00 01 li r0,1 fff9931c: 7c 8b e5 aa stswi r4,r11,28 fff99320: 98 01 00 70 stb r0,112(r1) fff99324: bf 81 01 a0 stmw r28,416(r1) fff99328: 38 00 00 00 li r0,0 ... ... ... ... ... ... ... -------------------------------------------------------------------------- when I traced into this function, unexpected interrupt occurs on the "fff99318 38 00 00 01 li r0,1" and the compiling log is as follows: ppc-linux-gcc -g -Os -fPIC -ffixed-r14 -meabi -D__KERNEL__ -DTEXT_BASE=0xfff80000 -I/home/aubrey/ppc-linux/u-boot/include -fno-builtin -ffreestanding -nostdinc -isystem /home/aubrey/ppc-linux/eldk/usr/bin/../lib/gcc-lib/ppc-linux/3.3.3/include -pipe -DCONFIG_PPC -D__powerpc__ -DCONFIG_MPC85xx -DCONFIG_E500 -ffixed-r2 -ffixed-r29 -Wa,-me500 -msoft-float -DCONFIG_MPC85xx=1 -DCONFIG_MPC8540=1 -DCONFIG_E500=1 -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -c -o console.o console.c I don't know how to solve this problem. Any comment and suggestion will be welcome!

Please let me know if you want me to send you one prebuilt image.

About mpc8540 problem
by Aubrey 04 Jan '05

04 Jan '05

Hi, I'm porting the u-boot to the MPC8540SK board. And Now I get a problem. When I run to the "printf" function, unexpected interruption occurs. Then I trace into the assemble file. I found that something wrong with the function "va_start","va_end". I know that these defines may be include by the stdarg.h file. But in the u-boot file tree, I can not find this file. Does u-boot use the file of my host system? I don't know how to solve this problem. Any comment and suggestion will be welcome! thank you!

mptable.c
by Stefan Reinauer 04 Jan '05

Hi, I've dumped an mptable with the mptable utility of LinuxBIOS v2. I'm getting this at some point: MP Config Extended Table Entries: -- System Address Space bus ID: 0 address type: I/O address address base: 0x9000 address range: 0x2000 -- System Address Space bus ID: 0 address type: I/O address address base: 0x0 address range: 0x100 -- System Address Space bus ID: 0 address type: memory address address base: 0xa0000 address range: 0x20000 -- System Address Space bus ID: 0 address type: memory address address base: 0xaed00000 address range: 0x2200000 -- System Address Space bus ID: 0 address type: prefetch address address base: 0xb0f00000 address range: 0x100000 Am I supposed to delete it, or am I supposed to look up what it means and implement it in mptable.c so LinuxBIOS can use it? It won't compile like this, at least ;-) Stefan

Try 5.2.6 at first. YH -----Original Message----- From: Gin [mailto:ginlin@nexcom.com.tw] Sent: Sunday, January 02, 2005 9:49 PM To: linuxbios(a)clustermatic.org Subject: Etherboot and Linuxbios Etherboot version used: 5.3.11 I am trying to build a Etherboot image to work with Linuxbios but got a compile error. There are couple undefined references to some functions due to the settings in the Config file. I commented out the PCBIOS option, and define the following. -DLINUXBIOS -DCONFIG_TSC_CURRTICKS -DCONSOLE_SERIAL -DCOMCONSOLE=0x3f8 -DCOMPRESERVE -DCONFIG_PCI_DIRECT -DELF_IMAGE -DPXE_IMAGE -DPXE_EXPORT p.s The undefined reference is due to the undefined PCBIOS. _______________________________________________ Linuxbios mailing list Linuxbios(a)clustermatic.org http://www.clustermatic.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxbios
