Hallo,
i am out of office at the moment, so i can not test, but i have
tracked all my vxWorks start problems down to cache issues, even if
they look like irq issues at a first glance, but disabling the irq's
may not harm.
Adding the boot parameter and a cache flush makes much more sense for
me.
I will come with a formal patch later next week.
Kind regards
Reinhard

We've been through a number of iterations now. Your technical
problems aside, I don't understand why you cannot follow simple
instructions.
I pointed you at http://www.denx.de/wiki/U-Boot/Patches ; there you
can read:
* In the message body, include a description of your changes.
- For bug fixes: a description of the bug and how your
patch fixes this bug. Please try to include a way of
demonstrating that the patch actually fixes something.
- For new features: a description of the feature and your
implementation.
- Additional comments which you don't want included in
U-Boot's history can be included below the first "---" in
the message body.
Do you think above text should become part of the commit message?
Probably not. So why don't you treat it as "Additional comments
which
you don't want included in U-Boot's history"?

Here is the place where such comments should go...
And when reposting a patch, you are supposed to follow the steps
described here:

Finally, as I wrote before, I would like to see some additional
feedback for other VxWorks users.
Any testers around?
Best regards,
Wolfgang Denk
