2Summary
3=======
4
5This README is about U-Boot support for TI's ARM Cortex-A8 based OMAP3 [1]
6family of SoCs. TI's OMAP3 SoC family contains an ARM Cortex-A8. Additionally,
7some family members contain a TMS320C64x+ DSP and/or an Imagination SGX 2D/3D
8graphics processor and various other standard peripherals.
9
10Currently the following boards are supported:
11
12* OMAP3530 BeagleBoard [2]
13
14* Gumstix Overo [3]
15
16* TI EVM [4]
17
18* OpenPandora Ltd. Pandora [5]
19
20* TI/Logic PD Zoom MDK [6]
21
22* TI/Logic PD Zoom 2 [7]
23
24Toolchain
25=========
26
27While ARM Cortex-A8 support ARM v7 instruction set (-march=armv7a) we compile
28with -march=armv5 to allow more compilers to work. For U-Boot code this has
29no performance impact.

64Custom commands
65===============
66
67To make U-Boot for OMAP3 support NAND device SW or HW ECC calculation, U-Boot
68for OMAP3 supports custom user command
69
70nandecc hw/sw
71
72To be compatible with NAND drivers using SW ECC (e.g. kernel code)
73
74nandecc sw
75
76enables SW ECC calculation. HW ECC enabled with
77
78nandecc hw
79
80is typically used to write 2nd stage bootloader (known as 'x-loader') which is
81executed by OMAP3's boot rom and therefore has to be written with HW ECC.
82

87Interfaces
88==========
89
90gpio
91
92To set a bit :
93
94	if (!omap_request_gpio(N)) {
95		omap_set_gpio_direction(N, 0);
96		omap_set_gpio_dataout(N, 1);
97	}
98
99To clear a bit :
100
101	if (!omap_request_gpio(N)) {
102		omap_set_gpio_direction(N, 0);
103		omap_set_gpio_dataout(N, 0);
104	}
105
106To read a bit :
107
108	if (!omap_request_gpio(N)) {
109		omap_set_gpio_direction(N, 1);
110		val = omap_get_gpio_datain(N);
111		omap_free_gpio(N);
112	}
113	if (val)
114		printf("GPIO N is set\n");
115	else
116		printf("GPIO N is clear\n");
