  1. Overview
  2. --------
  3. The P4080DS is a Freescale reference board that hosts the eight-core P4080 SOC.
  4. SerDes hwconfig configuration
  5. -----------------------------
  6. The P4080 RCW includes three sets of bits the specify which SerDes lanes
  7. should be powered down: SRDS_LPD_B1 (for bank one), SRDS_LPD_B2 (for bank two),
  8. and SRDS_LPD_B3 (for bank three). Each of these contains four bits, one for
  9. each lane in the bank. SerDes Erratum SERDES8 requires that SRDS_LPD_B2 and
  10. SRDS_LPD_B3 be set to 0b1111. This forces banks two and three to be powered
  11. down at reset.
  12. To re-enable these banks in U-Boot, two hwconfig are available:
  13. "fsl_srds_lpd_b2" and "fsl_srds_lpd_b3". The value passed via fsl_srds_lpd_b2
  14. is written into SRDS_LPD_B2, and the value passed via fsl_srds_lpd_b3 is into
  15. SRDS_LPD_B3. Each bit represents one of each bank, and a value of '1'
  16. indicates that the lane should be powered down.
  17. For example, to indicate that both SerDes banks 2 and 3 are powered down, add
  18. the following to hwconfig:
  19. serdes:fsl_srds_lpd_b2=0xf,fsl_srds_lpd_b3=0xf
  20. The "0xf" is a mask that corresponds to the 4 lanes A-D. The most significant
  21. bit corresponds to lane A. To indicate that just lane A of bank 3 is to be
  22. powered down, use:
  23. serdes:fsl_srds_lpd_b3=8
  24. These options should be specified only if U-Boot does not automatically power
  25. on the correct lanes.
