i took a couple minutes with "git blame" to discover this: $ git show 3d22d0b8 diff --git a/board/psyent/common/AMDLV065D.c b/board/psyent/common/AMDLV065D.c ... snip ... - *cmd = 0xaa; - *cmd = 0x55; - *cmd = 0xa0; - *dst = b; + writeb (cmd, 0xaa); + writeb (cmd, 0x55); + writeb (cmd, 0xa0); + writeb (dst, b); ... snip ... while over in the (almost) identical file: git show 9e486ab1 commit 9e486ab1c98ea7ab357520307fe5d5a0847cd1bb Author: Scott McNutt <smcn...@psyent.com> Date: Tue Mar 30 20:26:15 2010 -0400 nios2: Fix AMDLV065D flash write bug in altera board common tree.
