[ECOS] IXDP425 platform support

[ECOS] IXDP425 platform support

[Nickolay]

Hallo All!

My new IXDP425 board has only 128Mb of RAM, but native IXDP425 has 256Mb 
of RAM.
What changes i need does, for porting redboot from IXDP425 with 256Mb of 
RAM, to IXDP425 with 128Mb of RAM.

There are two places, I believe. First, the SDRAM controller needs to be
properly setup. The SDRAM controller setup is defined in:

 hal/arm/xscale/ixdp425/current/include/ixdp425.h

Next are ram-size entries in the mem config files in:

  hal/arm/xscale/ixdp425/current/include/pkgconf/*.{h,ldi}

[ECOS] IXP465 platform support

[Krishna Ganugapati]

Has there been any discussion on support for the IXP465 processor - the new 
version of the IXP425. On preliminary reading, the interesting features are
a) DDR RAM
b) Integrated USB host controller
c) integrated ethernet MACs

http://www.intel.com/design/network/products/npfamily/ixp465.htm

Thanks

Krishna

I did change in
hal/arm/xscale/ixdp425/current/include/ixdp425.h:
    #define CYGMEM_REGION_ram_SIZE (0x8000000)
    #define CYGMEM_SECTION_heap1_SIZE (0x8000000 - (size_t) 
CYG_LABEL_NAME (__heap1))

hal/arm/xscale/ixdp425/current/include/ixdp425.ldi:
    ram : ORIGIN = 0, LENGTH = 0x8000000

hal/arm/xscale/ixdp425/current/include/ixdp425.h:
    #define SDRAM_SIZE      0x8000000

Next macros i doesn't change in 
.hal/arm/xscale/ixdp425/current/include/ixdp425.h:
    #define SDRAM_PHYS_BASE                    0x00000000
    #define SDRAM_BASE                         0x00000000
    #define SDRAM_ALIAS_BASE                   0x10000000
    #define SDRAM_UNCACHED_BASE                0x20000000
    #define SDRAM_DC_BASE                      0x30000000
Maybe i need change something here?

I have a port to the IXDP465 development platform. I intend to commit
it to CVS in the near future.
