Overview
--------
The P1023 process includes a performance optimized implementation of the
QorIQ data Path Acceleration Architecture (DPAA).  This architecture
provides the infrastructure to support simplified sharing of networking
interfaces and accelerators by multiple CPU cores. P1023 is an e500 based
dual core SOC.

P1023RDS board is a Low End Dual core platform supporting the P1023
processor of QorIQ series.

Building U-boot
---------------
To build the u-boot for P1023RDS:
Configure to NOR boot:
	make P1023RDS_config
Configure to NAND boot:
	make P1023RDS_NAND_config
Build:
	make

Board Switches
--------------
Most switches on the board should not be changed.  The most frequent
user-settable switches on the board are used to configure
the flash banks.

J4: all open

Default NOR flash boot switch setting:
 Sw3[1:8]: off on on off on on off off
 Sw4[1:8]: off off off on off off off off
 Sw6[1:8]: off on off on off on on off
 Sw7[1:8]: off on off off on off off off
 Sw8[1:8]: on off off off off off off off

For NAND flash boot,set
Sw4[1:4]: off on on on

The default native ethernet setting is for RGMII mode.
To use SGMII mode, set
SW8[1:2]: OFF OFF
SW7[6:7]: ON ON

Memory Map
----------
0x0000_0000	0x7fff_ffff	DDR			2G Cacheable
0x8000_0000	0xbfff_ffff	PCI Express Mem		1G non-cacheable
0xc000_0000	0xdfff_ffff	PCI			512M non-cacheable
0xe100_0000	0xe3ff_ffff	PCI IO range		4M non-cacheable

0xe000_0000	0xe003_ffff	BCSR			256K BCSR
0xee00_0000	0xefff_ffff	NOR flash		32M NOR flash
0xff00_0000	0xff3f_ffff	DPAA_QBMAN		4M
0xff60_0000	0xff7f_ffff	CCSR			2M non-cacheable
0xffa0_0000	0xffaf_ffff	NAND FLASH		1M non-cacheable
0xffd0_0000	0xffd0_3fff	L1 for stack		16K Cacheable TLB0

Flashing u-boot Images
---------------
To program the image in the boot flash bank:
NOR flash boot:
	=> tftp 1000000 u-boot.bin
	=> protect off all
	=> erase eff80000 efffffff
	=> cp.b 1000000 eff80000 80000

NAND flash boot:
	=> tftp 1000000 u-boot-nand.bin
	=> nand erase 0 80000
	=> nand write 1000000 0 80000

Firmware ucode location
---------------------------------
Microcode(ucode) to FMAN's IRAM is needed to make FMAN Ethernet work.
u-boot loads ucode FLASH. The location for ucode:
NOR Flash: 0xfe000000
NAND Flash: 0x1f00000

Using the Device Tree Source File
---------------------------------
To create the DTB (Device Tree Binary) image file,
use a command similar to this:

	dtc -b 0 -f -I dts -O dtb p1023rds.dts > p1023rds.dtb

Likely, that .dts file will come from here;

	linux-2.6/arch/powerpc/boot/dts/p1023rds.dts
or
	make p1023rds.dtb ARCH=powerpc
in linux-2.6 directory.

Booting Linux
-------------
Place a linux uImage in the TFTP disk area.

	tftp 1000000 uImage
	tftp 2000000 rootfs.ext2.gz.uboot
	tftp c00000 p1023rds.dtb
	bootm 1000000 2000000 c00000
