Everyone,


If we are using U-boot and populate the CFG_SRAM_SIZE and CFG_SRAM_BASE
values, and makes sure this is passed into the kernel.

Does Linux 2.4.2x+ have any direct support for this? Is it just added into
the regular memory pool? Does it get used for specific tasks?

Or is this set aside for custom drivers?

Thanks,

Russell McGuire
