Supports emulated flash (patch Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD) with
recent qemu versions. When using emulated flash, launch with
-pflash <filename> and erase mips_bios.bin.
+
+
+
+Notes for the Qemu MIPS port
+----------------------------
+
+I) Example usage:
+
+# ln -s u-boot.bin mips_bios.bin
+start it:
+qemu-system-mips -L . /dev/null -nographic
+
+or
+
+if you use a qemu version after commit 4224
+
+create image:
+# dd of=flash bs=1k count=4k if=/dev/zero
+# dd of=flash bs=1k conv=notrunc if=u-boot.bin
+start it:
+# qemu-system-mips -M mips -pflash flash -monitor null -nographic
+
+2) Download kernel + initrd
+
+On ftp://ftp.denx.de/pub/contrib/Jean-Christophe_Plagniol-Villard/qemu_mips/
+you can downland
+
+#config to build the kernel
+qemu_mips_defconfig
+#patch to fix mips interrupt init on 2.6.24.y kernel
+qemu_mips_kernel.patch
+initrd.gz
+vmlinux
+vmlinux.bin
+System.map
+
+4) Generate uImage
+
+# tools/mkimage -A mips -O linux -T kernel -C gzip -a 0x80010000 -e 0x80245650 -n "Linux 2.6.24.y" -d vmlinux.bin.gz uImage
+
+5) Copy uImage to Flash
+# dd if=uImage bs=1k conv=notrunc seek=224 of=flash
+
+6) Generate Ide Disk
+
+# dd of=ide bs=1k cout=100k if=/dev/zero
+
+# sfdisk -C 261 -d ide
+# partition table of ide
+unit: sectors
+
+ ide1 : start= 63, size= 32067, Id=83
+ ide2 : start= 32130, size= 32130, Id=83
+ ide3 : start= 64260, size= 4128705, Id=83
+ ide4 : start= 0, size= 0, Id= 0
+
+7) Copy to ide
+
+# dd if=uImage bs=512 conv=notrunc seek=63 of=ide
+
+8) Generate ext2 on part 2 on Copy uImage and initrd.gz
+
+# Attached as loop device ide offset = 32130 * 512
+# losetup -o 16450560 -f ide
+# Format as ext2 ( arg2 : nb blocks)
+# mke2fs /dev/loop0 16065
+# losetup -d /dev/loop0
+# Mount and copy uImage and initrd.gz to it
+# mount -o loop,offset=16450560 -t ext2 ide /mnt
+# mkdir /mnt/boot
+# cp {initrd.gz,uImage} /mnt/boot/
+# Umount it
+# umount /mnt
+
+9) Set Environment
+
+setenv rd_start 0x80800000
+setenv rd_size 2663940
+setenv kernel BFC38000
+setenv oad_addr 80500000
+setenv load_addr2 80F00000
+setenv kernel_flash BFC38000
+setenv load_addr_hello 80200000
+setenv bootargs 'root=/dev/ram0 init=/bin/sh'
+setenv load_rd_ext2 'ide res; ext2load ide 0:2 ${rd_start} /boot/initrd.gz'
+setenv load_rd_tftp 'tftp ${rd_start} /initrd.gz'
+setenv load_kernel_hda 'ide res; diskboot ${load_addr} 0:2'
+setenv load_kernel_ext2 'ide res; ext2load ide 0:2 ${load_addr} /boot/uImage'
+setenv load_kernel_tftp 'tftp ${load_addr} /qemu_mips/uImage'
+setenv boot_ext2_ext2 'run load_rd_ext2; run load_kernel_ext2; run addmisc; bootm ${load_addr}'
+setenv boot_ext2_flash 'run load_rd_ext2; run addmisc; bootm ${kernel_flash}'
+setenv boot_ext2_hda 'run load_rd_ext2; run load_kernel_hda; run addmisc; bootm ${load_addr}'
+setenv boot_ext2_tftp 'run load_rd_ext2; run load_kernel_tftp; run addmisc; bootm ${load_addr}'
+setenv boot_tftp_hda 'run load_rd_tftp; run load_kernel_hda; run addmisc; bootm ${load_addr}'
+setenv boot_tftp_ext2 'run load_rd_tftp; run load_kernel_ext2; run addmisc; bootm ${load_addr}'
+setenv boot_tftp_flash 'run load_rd_tftp; run addmisc; bootm ${kernel_flash}'
+setenv boot_tftp_tftp 'run load_rd_tftp; run load_kernel_tftp; run addmisc; bootm ${load_addr}'
+setenv load_hello_tftp 'tftp ${load_addr_hello} /examples/hello_world.bin'
+setenv go_tftp 'run load_hello_tftp; go ${load_addr_hello}'
+setenv addmisc 'setenv bootargs ${bootargs} console=ttyS0,${baudrate} rd_start=${rd_start} rd_size=${rd_size} ethaddr=${ethaddr}'
+setenv bootcmd 'run boot_tftp_flash'
+
+10) Now you can boot from flash, ide, ide+ext2 and tfp
+
+# qemu-system-mips -M mips -pflash flash -monitor null -nographic -net nic -net user -tftp `pwd` -hda ide
+
+II) How to debug U-Boot
+
+In order to debug U-Boot you need to start qemu with gdb server support (-s)
+and waiting the connection to start the CPU (-S)
+
+# qemu-system-mips -S -s -M mips -pflash flash -monitor null -nographic -net nic -net user -tftp `pwd` -hda ide
+
+in an other console you start gdb
+
+1) Debugging of U-Boot Before Relocation
+
+Before relocation, the addresses in the ELF file can be used without any problems
+by connecting to the gdb server localhost:1234
+
+# mipsel-unknown-linux-gnu-gdb u-boot

+ Connect the BDI2000 Cable to the Sandpoint/Unity 8240:
+
+BDM Pin 1 on the Unity 8240 processor board is towards the
+PCI PMC connectors, or away from the socketed SDRAM, i.e.:

+
+
+PART 3)
+ Setting up the BDI2000, and preparing for TCP/IP network comms:
+
+Connect the BDI2000 to the PC using the supplied serial cable.
+Download the BDI2000 software and install it using setup.exe.
+
+[Note: of course you can also use the Linux command line tool
+"bdisetup" to configure your BDI2000 - the sources are included on
+the floppy disk that comes with your BDI2000. Just in case you don't
+have any Windows PC's - like me :-) -- wd ]
+
+Power up the BDI2000; then follow directions to assign the IP
+address and related network information. Note that U-Boot
+will be loaded to the Sandpoint via tftp. You need to either
+use the Abatron-provided tftp application or provide a tftp
+server (e.g. Linux/Solaris/*BSD) somewhere on your network.
+Once the IP address etc are assigned via the RS232 port,
+further communication with the BDI2000 will happen via the
+ethernet connection.
+
+PART 4)
+ Making a TCP/IP network connection to the Abatron BDI2000:
+
+Telnet to the Abatron BDI2000. Assuming that all of the
+networking info was loaded via RS232 correctly, you will see
+the following (scrolling):

-This document contains different information about the port
-of U-Boot for the OXC board designed by Lucent Technologies,
-Inc.
-
-1. Showing activity
-
-U-Boot for the OXC board can show its current status using
-the Active LED. This feature is configured by the following
-options:
-
-CONFIG_SHOW_ACTIVITY
-
- When this option is on, the Active LED is blinking fast
-when U-Boot runs in the idle loop (i.e. waits for user
-commands from serial console) and blinking slow when it
-downloads an image over network. When U-Boot loads an image
-over serial line the Active LED does not blink and its state
-is random (i.e. either constant on or constant off).
-
-CONFIG_SHOW_BOOT_PROGRESS
-
- When this option is on, U-Boot switches the Active LED
-off before booting an image and switches it on if booting
-failed due to some reasons.
+++ /dev/null
-The port was tested on a Sandpoint 8240 X3 board, with U-Boot
-installed in the flash memory of the CPU card. Please use the
-following DIP switch settings:

-PART 3)
- Setting up the BDI2000, and preparing for TCP/IP network comms:
-
-Connect the BDI2000 to the PC using the supplied serial cable.
-Download the BDI2000 software and install it using setup.exe.
-
-[Note: of course you can also use the Linux command line tool
-"bdisetup" to configure your BDI2000 - the sources are included on
-the floppy disk that comes with your BDI2000. Just in case you don't
-have any Windows PC's - like me :-) -- wd ]
-
-Power up the BDI2000; then follow directions to assign the IP
-address and related network information. Note that U-Boot
-will be loaded to the Sandpoint via tftp. You need to either
-use the Abatron-provided tftp application or provide a tftp
-server (e.g. Linux/Solaris/*BSD) somewhere on your network.
-Once the IP address etc are assigned via the RS232 port,
-further communication with the BDI2000 will happen via the
-ethernet connection.
-
-PART 4)
- Making a TCP/IP network connection to the Abatron BDI2000:
-
-Telnet to the Abatron BDI2000. Assuming that all of the
-networking info was loaded via RS232 correctly, you will see
-the following (scrolling):
-
-- TARGET: waiting for target Vcc
-- TARGET: waiting for target Vcc

-Overview
---------
-The P4080DS is a Freescale reference board that hosts the eight-core P4080 SOC.
-
-SerDes hwconfig configuration
------------------------------
-The P4080 RCW includes three sets of bits the specify which SerDes lanes
-should be powered down: SRDS_LPD_B1 (for bank one), SRDS_LPD_B2 (for bank two),
-and SRDS_LPD_B3 (for bank three). Each of these contains four bits, one for
-each lane in the bank. SerDes Erratum SERDES8 requires that SRDS_LPD_B2 and
-SRDS_LPD_B3 be set to 0b1111. This forces banks two and three to be powered
-down at reset.
-
-To re-enable these banks in U-Boot, two hwconfig are available:
-"fsl_srds_lpd_b2" and "fsl_srds_lpd_b3". The value passed via fsl_srds_lpd_b2
-is written into SRDS_LPD_B2, and the value passed via fsl_srds_lpd_b3 is into
-SRDS_LPD_B3. Each bit represents one of each bank, and a value of '1'
-indicates that the lane should be powered down.
-
-For example, to indicate that both SerDes banks 2 and 3 are powered down, add
-the following to hwconfig:
-
- serdes:fsl_srds_lpd_b2=0xf,fsl_srds_lpd_b3=0xf
-
-The "0xf" is a mask that corresponds to the 4 lanes A-D. The most significant
-bit corresponds to lane A. To indicate that just lane A of bank 3 is to be
-powered down, use:
-
- serdes:fsl_srds_lpd_b3=8
-
-These options should be specified only if U-Boot does not automatically power
-on the correct lanes.

-
-II) How to debug U-Boot
-
-In order to debug U-Boot you need to start qemu with gdb server support (-s)
-and waiting the connection to start the CPU (-S)
-
-# qemu-system-mips -S -s -M mips -pflash flash -monitor null -nographic -net nic -net user -tftp `pwd` -hda ide
-
-in an other console you start gdb
-
-1) Debugging of U-Boot Before Relocation
-
-Before relocation, the addresses in the ELF file can be used without any problems
-by connecting to the gdb server localhost:1234
