Subject: Accessing DDR DCR registers in init_mem - PMC RM9000

Hello -
We're trying to determine dynamically the DDR DCR
register values from within setup.c, init_mem(), so that we
can remove the hard-coded 256MB RAM size (and not rely on
cmd-line args) From documentation I've read (not evry
clear for a MIPS newbie) it appears I need to setup a TLB
entry to access phys mem above 0x80000000. (PMON already
sets up a range for Compact Flash)
I setup a TLB entry for that region ( 0xFF080000, making
3 total entries setup in PMON) but I still get an exception
in setup.c when I try to read the DCR reg.
Is it as simple as setting up a TLB entry? I can't
find examples for how to access registeres in various
segments of physical memory (in kernel mode) does anyone
know of a good resource for that kind of stuff?
Any suggestions?
Thanks
Sean
