Re: MPC8555 8280/8270 USB host support

Hi

Don't you think u-boot should take care of clock setup
i.e. as much as possible of all board dependent stuff ?

I think you're right, but then it was easier to make all these setups in the driver itself.

If u-boot is the boot loader of your board (the stuff running on it --before-- we see this:

loaded at:     00400000 005153B4
board data at: 00513130 00513334
relocated to:  00405090 00405294
zimage at:     00405A85 00512099
avail ram:     00516000 08000000

Linux/PPC load: rw console=ttyS0 root=/dev/nfs ip=on

Uncompressing Linux...done)


Then I would say NO




If u-boot is this exact stuff (the files in arch/ppc/boot/simple/... misc-embedded.c for example)

then, yes, this is somehow better.
But (tell me if I'm wrong) this is not really Linux code, and this should be done by Linux.


What I think should be good also is the platform files (arch/ppc/platforms/....) for this is the place where all the board dependant stuff stays.




Maybe I'm completely mistaken.
Feel free to tell me (and explain please !)

Have fun.
