Subject: [U-Boot-Users] MPC850, read FLASH manufacturer ID, Mxu Board

Hello,

We have an Infineon Switch Evaluation Board (MXU rev.B, MPC850), a
Lauterbach Emulator. We started with the tqm850L configuration (u-boot
0.2.0).

- Reading manufacturer ID of FLASH doesn't work.

Using the VxWorks boot prompt commands it works to write the command
sequence and then read the ID. We now managed to read the ID also with
issuing FLASH writes/reads from Emulator.

The VxWorks boot prompt command uses "sth" assembler command to write
to flash and the u-boot flash_get_size() command uses "stw" assembler
code.

- Could someone explain why "sth" works and "stw" doesn't work in
   our case?

Thanks,
Gerhard



I saw while stepping in assembler, the u-boot code uses following
commands to write the command sequence (first using original long,
then using short which works!):

         short i;
         ulong value;
         ulong base = (ulong)addr;
