i see that in u-boot /cpu directory, there are several directories for arm,like arm920t,arm720t,etc.but for mips i only find a mips directory. does it means that the start.S under /cpu/mips/ is run for several mips cores, like 4kc, au1100,etc.

if i port u-boot to 4kec, need i make a new directory in /cpu or just modify the old start.S in /cpu/mips/?

and i wonder how difficult to port u-boot to 4kec,because i must finish it by the deadline,has someone succeeded in porting u-boot to 4kec?

Probably not a complete rewrite (most MIPS cpus after the R4000 are pretty similar), but you'll need to understand the 4kec coprocessor, caches, and tlb well enough to check that what's in start.S is correct for your core.
