[PATCH v2] PPC: request a consistent memory layout

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Using the memory test command will crash barebox, because it tests the
area where the stack is located for the PPC architecture.

On PPC the stack is below the barebox binary. Below the stack the malloc
area is located. Until this change some routines used the macros
from 'memory_layout.h', some other calculated their values by their
own - which resulted into an unrequested and unprotected stack area.
