Message-ID: <47ECD295.3090707@matrix-vision.de> (raw)
In "cpu/mpc83xx/start.S" there is a comment :
/*
* The Hard Reset Configuration Word (HRCW) table is in the first 64
* (0x40) bytes of flash. It has 8 bytes, but each byte is repeated 8
* times so the processor can fetch it out of flash whether the flash
* is 8, 16, 32, or 64 bits wide (hardware trickery).
*/
This does _not_ hold true for all configurations. Flash is simply one of
many options ...
Maybe it's true for the Freescale boards.
Other sources of the HRCW can be hard-coded strapping pins or an I2C EEPROM.
Why is there a need to define the HRCW ?
regards,
Andre Schwarz
