Freezing & Unfreezing the au11000

[Rodolfo Giometti <giometti@linux.it>]

I'm just trying to support the save_and_sleep() support into u-boot
for an au1100 based board.

Into u-boot I added the following code:

in order to restore the scratch registers contents as descibed into
file "linux/arch/mips/au1000/common/sleeper.S":

        /* Now set up the scratch registers so the boot rom will
         * return to this point upon wakeup.
         */     
        la      k0, 1f
        lui     k1, 0xb190

        ori     k1, 0x1c
        sw      k0, 0(k1)

However it seems something is wrong since the system at the end of
save_and_sleep() does not correctly continue its execution...

Unlikely my JTAG do not allow me to follow the code after the
save_and_sleep()'s return (I definitely have to buy a better one),
however I noticed that when the system tryes to resume the register 29
(the sp) doing:

        lw      $29, PT_R29(sp)

something goes wrong!

Suggestions? :)

Thanks in advance,

Rodolfo
