Subject: Instruction error with cache opcode
Date: Sun, 14 May 2006 09:51:02 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <446735C6.2080306@mountolympos.net> (raw)
I am attempting to write a routine to initialize the cache for a MIPS
4kc core to get Linux 2.6.16.14 to compile. I am sure someone has
probably already done this, but I am doing it for educational reasons.
I am receiving the following error:
arch/mips/kernel/head.S: Assembler messages:
arch/mips/kernel/head.S:131: Error: Instruction cache requires absolute
expression
From the following code section:
li t0, 0x80000000 # start address (KSEG0)
addu t1,t0,0x2000 # 8KB I-cache
1: addu t0,0x10 # 16B line size
cache Index_Store_Tag_I,-4(t0) # clear tag
nop
cache Fill_I,-4(t0) # fill line
nop
bne t0,t1,1b
cache Index_Store_Tag_I,-4(t0)
I copied the code section from See MIPS Run, so I know the code must be
correct. What am I doing wrong?
