Message-ID: <4A08080E.6030605@deeopl.com> List-Id: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit To: u-boot@lists.denx.de hi, You have mentioned to add the test code to the existing POST framework. In my hardware, I have CAN controller interfaced to SPI interface, SPI DACs, parallel ADCs, 1553B controller interfaced to EBC. I have a CPLD to generate chip selects to these ICs. If this test code will be useful, please let me to know how to add it to the POST framework. I just gave an example of text file, it can be binary file transfer also between my board and PC. I understood that "tftp" command in u-boot has been coded only for receiving data from the PC and not to transmit, to PC.If this is the case should i add the transmit code to the "tftp" command? Even if I use this command for data transfer, what are the requirements for the application in PC side?
