+
+This file contains basic information on the port of U-Boot to IPHASE4539
+(Interphase 4539 T1/E1/J1 PMC Communications Controller).
+All the changes fit in the common U-Boot infrastructure, providing a new
+IPHASE4539-specific entry in makefiles. To build U-Boot for IPHASE4539,
+type "make IPHASE4539_config", edit the "include/config_IPHASE4539.h"
+file if necessary, then type "make".
+
+
+Common file modifications:
+--------------------------
+
+The following common files have been modified by this project:
+(starting from the ppcboot-1.1.5/ directory)
+
+MAKEALL - IPHASE4539 entry added
+Makefile - IPHASE4539_config entry added
+
+
+New files:
+----------
+
+The following new files have been added by this project:
+(starting from the ppcboot-1.1.5/ directory)
+
+board/iphase4539/ - board-specific directory
+board/iphase4539/Makefile - board-specific makefile
+board/iphase4539/config.mk - config file
+board/iphase4539/flash.c - flash driver (for AM29LV033C)
+board/iphase4539/ppcboot.lds - linker script
+board/iphase4539/iphase4539.c - ioport and memory initialization
+include/config_IPHASE4539.h - main configuration file
+
+
+New configuration options:
+--------------------------
+
+CONFIG_IPHASE4539
+
+ Main board-specific option (should be defined for IPHASE4539).
+
+
+Acceptance criteria tests:
+--------------------------
+
+The following tests have been conducted to validate the port of U-Boot
+to IPHASE4539:
+
+1. Operation on serial console:
+
+With SMC1 defined as console in the main configuration file, the U-Boot
+output appeared on the serial terminal connected to the 2.5mm stereo jack
+connector as follows:
+
+------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+=> help
+autoscr - run script from memory
+base - print or set address offset
+bdinfo - print Board Info structure
+bootm - boot application image from memory
+bootp - boot image via network using BootP/TFTP protocol
+bootd - boot default, i.e., run 'bootcmd'
+cmp - memory compare
+coninfo - print console devices and informations
+cp - memory copy
+crc32 - checksum calculation
+dcache - enable or disable data cache
+echo - echo args to console
+erase - erase FLASH memory
+flinfo - print FLASH memory information
+go - start application at address 'addr'
+help - print online help
+icache - enable or disable instruction cache
+iminfo - print header information for application image
+loadb - load binary file over serial line (kermit mode)
+loads - load S-Record file over serial line
+loop - infinite loop on address range
+md - memory display
+mm - memory modify (auto-incrementing)
+mtest - simple RAM test
+mw - memory write (fill)
+nm - memory modify (constant address)
+printenv- print environment variables
+protect - enable or disable FLASH write protection
+rarpboot- boot image via network using RARP/TFTP protocol
+reset - Perform RESET of the CPU
+run - run commands in an environment variable
+saveenv - save environment variables to persistent storage
+setenv - set environment variables
+sleep - delay execution for some time
+tftpboot- boot image via network using TFTP protocol
+ and env variables ipaddr and serverip
+version - print monitor version
+? - alias for 'help'

+2. Flash driver operation

+The following sequence was performed to test the "flinfo" command:

+Note: the Hardware Configuration Word (HWC) of the 8260 is on the
+first sector of the flash and should not be touched. The U-Boot
+environment variables are stored on second sector and U-Boot
+starts at the address 0xFFB00000.

+
+Using the Motorola MPC8XXFADS development board
+===============================================
+
+CONFIGURATIONS
+--------------
+
+There are ready-to-use default configurations available for the
+FADS823, FADS850SAR and FADS860T. The FADS860T configuration also
+works for the 855T processor.
+
+LOADING U-Boot INTO FADS FLASH MEMORY
+--------------------------------------
+
+MPC8BUG can load U-Boot into the FLASH memory using LOADF.
+
+ loadf u-boot.srec 100000
+
+
+STARTING U-Boot FROM MPC8BUG
+-----------------------------
+
+To start U-Boot from MPC8BUG:
+
+1. Reset the board:
+ reset :h
+
+2. Change BR0 and OR0 back to their values at reset:
+ rms memc br0 00000001
+ rms memc or0 00000d34
+
+3. Modify DER so MPC8BUG gets control only when it should:
+ rms der 2002000f
+
+4. Start as if from reset:
+ go 100
+
+This is NOT exactly the same as starting U-Boot without
+MPC8BUG. MPC8BUG turns off the watchdog as part of the hard reset.
+After it does the reset it writes SYPCR (to disable the watchdog)
+and sets BR0 and OR0 to map the FLASH at 0x02800000 (and does lots
+of other initialization). That is why it is necessary to set BR0
+and OR0 to map the FLASH everywhere. U-Boot can't turn on the
+watchdog after that, since MPC8BUG has used the only chance to write
+to SYPCR.
+
+Here is a bizarre sequence of MPC8BUG and U-Boot commands that lets
+U-Boot write to SYPCR. It works with MPC8BUG 1.5 and an 855T
+processor (your mileage may vary). It is probably better (and a lot
+easier) just to accept having the watchdog disabled when the debug
+cable is connected.
+
+in MPC8BUG:
+ reset :h
+ rms memc br0 00000001
+ rms memc or0 00000d34
+ rms der 2000f
+ go 100
+
+Now U-Boot is running with the MPC8BUG value for SYPCR. Use the
+U-Boot 'reset' command to reset the board.
+ =>reset
+Next, in MPC8BUG:
+ rms der 2000f
+ go
+
+Now U-Boot is running with the U-Boot value for SYPCR.
