If CFG_MEM_TOP_HIDE is defined in the board config header, this specified
memory area will get subtracted from the top (end) of ram and won't get
"touched" at all by U-Boot. By fixing up gd->ram_size the Linux kernel
should gets passed the now "corrected" memory size and won't touch it
either. This should work for arch/ppc and arch/powerpc. Only Linux board
ports in arch/powerpc with bootwrapper support, which recalculate the
memory size from the SDRAM controller setup, will have to get fixed
in Linux additionally.
This patch enables this config option on some PPC440EPx boards as a workaround
for the CHIP 11 errata. Here the description from the AMCC documentation:
CHIP_11: End of memory range area restricted access.
Category: 3
Overview:
The 440EPx DDR controller does not acknowledge any
transaction which is determined to be crossing over the
end-of-memory-range boundary, even if the starting address is
within valid memory space. Any such transaction from any PLB4
master will result in a PLB time-out on PLB4 bus.
Impact:
In case of such misaligned bursts, PLB4 masters will not
retrieve any data at all, just the available data up to the
end of memory, especially the 440 CPU. For example, if a CPU
instruction required an operand located in memory within the
last 7 words of memory, the DCU master would burst read 8
words to update the data cache and cross over the
end-of-memory-range boundary. Such a DCU read would not be
answered by the DDR controller, resulting in a PLB4 time-out
and ultimately in a Machine Check interrupt. The data would
be inaccessible to the CPU.
Workaround:
Forbid any application to access the last 256 bytes of DDR
memory. For example, make your operating system believe that
the last 256 bytes of DDR memory are absent. AMCC has a patch
that does this, available for Linux.
This patch sets CFG_MEM_TOP_HIDE for the following 440EPx boards:
lwmon5, korat, sequoia
The other remaining 440EPx board were intentionally not included
since it is not clear to me, if they use the end of ram for some
other purpose. This is unclear, since these boards have CONFIG_PRAM
defined and even comments like this:
PMC440.h:
/* esd expects pram at end of physical memory.
* So no logbuffer at the moment.
*/
It is strongly recommended to not use the last 256 bytes on those
boards too. Patches from the board maintainers are welcome.

The 440EPx has a problem when the PCI_CACHE_LINE_SIZE register is
set to non-zero, because it doesn't support MRM (memory-read-
multiple) correctly. We now added the possibility to configure
this register in the board config file, so that the default value
of 8 can be overridden.
Here the details of this patch:
o drivers_pci_auto.c: introduce CFG_PCI_CACHE_LINE_SIZE to allow
board-specific settings. As an example the sequoia board requires 0.
Idea from Stefan Roese <sr@denx.de>.
o board/amcc/sequoia/init.S: add a TLB mapping at 0xE8000000 for the
PCI IO-space. Obtained from Stefan Roese <sr@denx.de>.
o include/configs/sequoia.h: turn CONFIG_PCI_PNP back on and set
CFG_PCI_CACHE_LINE_SIZE to 0.
