In fact. u-boot has some support for these error events, check the cpu/mpc85xx/interrupts, 8548cds, 8544ds board file and drivers/pci /fsl-pci...c. beside they has not good framework. Linux kernel has the EDAC driver for 85xx platform in main tree, include most of error case. > In the meantime, both u-boot and Linux are susceptible to processor > stalls.

What is error you usually happened? L2 cache, ECM mapping, PCI[x,ex] error or local bus error? _______________________________________________ U-Boot mailing list U-Boot@lists.denx.de http://lists.denx.de/mailman/listinfo/u-boot
