2010-10-22post/i2c: Add ability to ignore I2C devicesPeter Tyser
Add the ability to not report an I2C POST error for a set of given I2C addresses on bootup. This is useful for cases when a device may or may not be present, and neither case is considered an error. For example: - Some form factors such as XMC and Compact PCI Express have an I2C EEPROM whose address changes based on geographical address. Eg installed in one slot its EEPROM address is, 0x50, in another its 0x51, etc. This allows multiple devices to have their EEPROMs present on the same I2C bus. Thus the I2C devices present for an XMC or CPCIe card depend on if and where other cards are installed in the same system. - Some cards have optional I2C devices. Eg one hardware build configuration has different I2C devices than another and software can't determine if the optional device should be present or not. - Some cards have optional daughtercards with I2C devices on them. - I2C EEPROMs address range depends on their size. Its possible to support differently size EEPROMs by only probing the EEPROM's base address and ignoring the other addresses that are impacted by its size. A new CONFIG_SYS_POST_I2C_IGNORES define has been added which specifies a list of I2C addresses for the I2C POST to ignore.

2010-04-21Move arch/ppc to arch/powerpcStefan Roese
As discussed on the list, move "arch/ppc" to "arch/powerpc" to better match the Linux directory structure. Please note that this patch also changes the "ppc" target in MAKEALL to "powerpc" to match this new infrastructure. But "ppc" is kept as an alias for now, to not break compatibility with scripts using this name.

2003-09-05* Add support for SK98xx driverwdenk
* Add PCI support for SL8245 board * Support IceCube board configurations with 1 x AMD AM29LV065 (8 MB) or 1 x AM29LV652 (two LV065 in one chip = 16 MB); Run IPB at 133 Mhz; adjust the MII clock frequency accordingly * Set BRG_CLK on PM825/826 to 64MHz (VCO_OUT / 4, instead of 16 MHz) to allow for more accurate baudrate settings (error now 0.7% at 115 kbps, instead of 3.5% before) * Patch by Andreas Mohr, 4 Sep 2003: Fix a lot of spelling errors
