Hi,
I'm trying to achieve starting of U-Boot from L2 cache memory after
downloading from SD card.
The board is P2020RDB-like, however it contains only 512MB of memory.
Because we suspect, that there may be problems with DDR memory, we
wanted at least to get U-Boot starting from L2 cache configured as
SRAM.
Finally I got the U-boot starting and displaying the first messages via UART:
vvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvv
U-Boot 2011.09-01153-gdca61f0-dirty (Nov 28 2011 - 15:35:03)
CPU0: P2020E, Version: 2.0, (0x80ea0020)

Data Read Failed in PIO Mode.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
To achieve that I had to withdraw the patch described in:
http://lists.denx.de/pipermail/u-boot/2011-March/088279.html
I also had to change the CONFIG_SYS_TEXT_BASE in P1_P2_RDB.h :
64,65c64,65
< #define CONFIG_SYS_TEXT_BASE 0xf8f80000
< #define CONFIG_RESET_VECTOR_ADDRESS 0xf8fffffc
---
> #define CONFIG_SYS_TEXT_BASE 0x11000000
> #define CONFIG_RESET_VECTOR_ADDRESS 0x1107fffc
70,71c70,71
< #define CONFIG_SYS_TEXT_BASE 0xf8f80000
< #define CONFIG_RESET_VECTOR_ADDRESS 0xf8fffffc
---
> #define CONFIG_SYS_TEXT_BASE 0x11000000
> #define CONFIG_RESET_VECTOR_ADDRESS 0x1107fffc
The u-boot was compiled with
make P2020RDB_SDCARD_config
make
The config for boot_format was:
40:424f4f54
44:00000000
48:00080000
4c:00000000
50:00001000
54:00000000
58:f8f80000
5c:00000000
60:f8fff000
64:00000000
68:00000006
80:ff720100
84:f8f80000
88:ff720e44
8c:0000000c
90:ff720000
94:80010000
98:ff72e40c
9c:00000040
a0:40000001
a4:00000100
a8:80000001
ac:80000001
It seems that the U-Boot somehow misconfigures the SD controller.
The first part of U-Boot is loading correctly and the initial messages
are displayed,
but when it tries to continue downloading, it displays the "Data Read
Failed in PIO Mode."
and hangs.
I will appreciate any further pointers...
