Re: writing CCSR_BAR register for relocation?

[Parav Pandit <paravpandit@yahoo.com>]

I have read the MPC8555 RF.
section 4.3.1.1 says that CCSRBAR is points to itself.

Checked by the md command in u-boot.
it shows the same results, FF70:0000.

It shows the FF704600 also at that address for all the
addresses it shows the same content as address.

If this is the case, how come the u-boot works on
serial port? It should show some other value for the
configured devices such as serial port at least.

or somethign is missing on my side...

Parav Pandit
