[LinuxBIOS] How to separate CS5536 and CPU?
by Indrek Kruusa Aug. 7, 2006

Aug. 7, 2006

Hi! Currently I need to change cs5536 code (below) to make Geode LX target build. To conclude the situation: - different CPU-s with integrated northbridge using the same southbridge - southbridge needs to know about CPU Which should be the preferred way to fix it? thanks, Indrek /*****************/ diff -u -r -b -B LinuxBIOSv2/src/southbridge/amd/cs5536/cs5536.c LinuxBIOSv2_cp1/src/southbridge/amd/cs5536/cs5536.c --- LinuxBIOSv2/src/southbridge/amd/cs5536/cs5536.c 2006-07-22 02:21:01.000000000 +0300 +++ LinuxBIOSv2_cp1/src/southbridge/amd/cs5536/cs5536.c 2006-07-31 17:53:04.000000000 +0300 @@ -5,7 +5,7 @@ #include <device/pci_ops.h> #include <device/pci_ids.h> #include <console/console.h> -#include <cpu/amd/gx2def.h> +#include <cpu/amd/lxdef.h> #include <cpu/x86/msr.h> #include "chip.h" diff -u -r -b -B LinuxBIOSv2/src/southbridge/amd/cs5536/cs5536_early_setup.c LinuxBIOSv2_cp1/src/southbridge/amd/cs5536/cs5536_early_setup.c --- LinuxBIOSv2/src/southbridge/amd/cs5536/cs5536_early_setup.c 2006-07-27 07:05:43.000000000 +0300 +++ LinuxBIOSv2_cp1/src/southbridge/amd/cs5536/cs5536_early_setup.c 2006-07-31 17:52:52.000000000 +0300 @@ -1,4 +1,4 @@ -#include <cpu/amd/gx2def.h> +#include <cpu/amd/lxdef.h> /* *

Now that indeed explains things very well. Attached is a patch to make LinuxBIOS support precompressed payloads. While the LinuxBIOS build system can compress payloads on its own, the OLPC build system benefits from delivering a precompressed (and size-checked) payload. Although the patch modifies targets/olpc/rev_a/Config.1M.lb this has no effect on current OLPC buildrom because it checks out an earlier revision of LinuxBIOS. So it should be a safe to apply. As a reply to this message, I'll post the necessary OLPC buildrom changes to make use of the new infrastructure. Regards, Carl-Daniel -- Echte DSL-Flatrate dauerhaft für 0,- Euro*.
