25 (*) Although the hardware can be configured with memory controller
26 interleaving using "2x2" rank interleaving, it only interleaves {CS0+CS1}
27 from each controller. {CS2+CS3} on each controller are only rank
28 interleaved on that controller.
29
30 For memory controller interleaving, identical DIMMs are suggested. Software
31 doesn't check the size or organization of interleaved DIMMs.
32
33The ways to configure the ddr interleaving mode
34==============================================
351. In board header file(e.g.MPC8572DS.h), add default interleaving setting
36   under "CONFIG_EXTRA_ENV_SETTINGS", like:
37	#define CONFIG_EXTRA_ENV_SETTINGS				\
38	 "hwconfig=fsl_ddr:ctlr_intlv=bank"			\
39	 ......
40
412. Run u-boot "setenv" command to configure the memory interleaving mode.
42   Either numerical or string value is accepted.
43
44  # disable memory controller interleaving
45  setenv hwconfig "fsl_ddr:ctlr_intlv=null"
46
47  # cacheline interleaving
48  setenv hwconfig "fsl_ddr:ctlr_intlv=cacheline"
49
50  # page interleaving
51  setenv hwconfig "fsl_ddr:ctlr_intlv=page"
52
53  # bank interleaving
54  setenv hwconfig "fsl_ddr:ctlr_intlv=bank"
55
56  # superbank
57  setenv hwconfig "fsl_ddr:ctlr_intlv=superbank"
58
59  # disable bank (chip-select) interleaving
60  setenv hwconfig "fsl_ddr:bank_intlv=null"
61
62  # bank(chip-select) interleaving cs0+cs1
63  setenv hwconfig "fsl_ddr:bank_intlv=cs0_cs1"
64
65  # bank(chip-select) interleaving cs2+cs3
66  setenv hwconfig "fsl_ddr:bank_intlv=cs2_cs3"
67
68  # bank(chip-select) interleaving (cs0+cs1) and (cs2+cs3)  (2x2)
69  setenv hwconfig "fsl_ddr:bank_intlv=cs0_cs1_and_cs2_cs3"
70
71  # bank(chip-select) interleaving (cs0+cs1+cs2+cs3) (4x1)
72  setenv hwconfig "fsl_ddr:bank_intlv=cs0_cs1_cs2_cs3"
73
74Memory controller address hashing
75==================================
76If the DDR controller supports address hashing, it can be enabled by hwconfig.
77
78Syntax is:
79hwconfig=fsl_ddr:addr_hash=true
80
81Memory controller ECC on/off
82============================
83If ECC is enabled in board configuratoin file, i.e. #define CONFIG_DDR_ECC,
84ECC can be turned on/off by hwconfig.
85
86Syntax is
87hwconfig=fsl_ddr:ecc=off
88
89Memory testing options for mpc85xx
90==================================
911. Memory test can be done once U-boot prompt comes up using mtest, or
922. Memory test can be done with Power-On-Self-Test function, activated at
93   compile time.
94
95   In order to enable the POST memory test, CONFIG_POST needs to be
96   defined in board configuraiton header file. By default, POST memory test
97   performs a fast test. A slow test can be enabled by changing the flag at
98   compiling time. To test memory bigger than 2GB, 36BIT support is needed.
99   Memory is tested within a 2GB window. TLBs are used to map the virtual 2GB
100   window to physical address so that all physical memory can be tested.
101
102Combination of hwconfig
103=======================
104Hwconfig can be combined with multiple parameters, for example, on a supported
105platform
106
107hwconfig=fsl_ddr:addr_hash=true,ctlr_intlv=cacheline,bank_intlv=cs0_cs1_cs2_cs3,ecc=on
108
109Table for dynamic ODT for DDR3
110==============================
111For single-slot system with quad-rank DIMM and dual-slot system, dynamic ODT may
112be needed, depending on the configuration. The numbers in the following tables are
113in Ohms.
114
115* denotes dynamic ODT
