The purpose of get_ram_size() is to verify the "known size of RAM". That is, once you think you know how much RAM there is, you ask get_ram_size() to verify that claim. The return value is the true, validated amount of RAM. > It also doesn't handle non-power-of-two sized memory -- don't rely on the > value it returns. Ah, that's a serious limitation. -- Timur Tabi Linux kernel developer at Freescale _______________________________________________ U-Boot mailing list U-Boot@lists.denx.de http://lists.denx.de/mailman/listinfo/u-boot
