Does U-Boot support BCM5880 board ?
Hi,
Do you know if the BCM5880 chip is supported by u-boot ? If yes, where is located the code associated to this board ?
According to the output of this
(http://www.codesourcery.com/archives/arm-gnu/msg01069.html)
compilation error, u-boot had some code for the bcm5880. I downloaded the lastest sources from git and did a grep and find through all files but i did not find any code related to the chip.
I am looking for some low level code to probe and pilot that chip. Do you have any hints for me?
Regards,
Fernand

Did you try asking Broadcom? Since you seem to be using this chip you might have some channel to place such a question; don't expect too much as a mere mortal, though - nor don't expect that they contribute any of their work back to the community.

I tried but i did not get any answer from them. That is why i am googling for open source project that already worked with this chip. The muscle (smartcard support project for linux) project also use this chip. I should digg there also for some information.
