I decided to see if I could bring up current kernel sources under
skyeye  (at91x40 simulation).

Very interesting, thanks. Your patches indeed allow the AT91x40 kernel
to boot under SkyEye, while the unpatched Linux kernel does not,
apparently.

Greg, it seems you are saying that the mainline kernel, unchanged,
boots under SkyEye.

No, I didn't mean to imply that in my response (
http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-arm-kernel/2011-December/078670.html).
It has worked in the past, but I haven't run it for a few kernel
versions now.

I was hoping that Phil would respond to the couple of questions I
had about differences, but he never did.

Could you share your kernel configuration and
SkyEye configuration?

Yeah, its in mainline. Its one of the defconfigs:

   arch/arm/configs/at91x40_defconfig
   

quoted

Runs on locally modified skyeye
  based on skyeye-v1.2_Rel.tar (had trouble building latest release)
  adds interrupt driven UART output
  tweaked for programmed I/O UART input
  fix for loading XIP data section (load at physical, not virtual address)

Would you mind publishing your changes to SkyEye? So far, I'm blocked
because of the lack of interrupt driver UART output.

Do you plan on further pushing those AT91x40 changes?

It would be really nice to get Phil's changes in a form that can be
applied to mainline.

Regards
Greg
