408 entering the main loop
409 - add DTT support for adm1021 (new file dtt/adm1021.c; config
410 slightly different. see include/configs/hymod.h for an example
411 (requires CONFIG_DTT_ADM1021, CONFIG_DTT_SENSORS, and
412 CFG_DTT_ADM1021 defined)
413 - add new "eeprom_probe()" function which has similar args and

416 function which is enabled by defining CONFIG_ETHER_LOOPBACK_TEST)

419 after the "mtmsr" instruction in cpu/mpc8260/interrupts.c

421 - add SIU IRQ defines for 8260
422 - allow LDSCRIPT override and OBJCFLAGS initialization: change to
423 config.mk to allow board configurations to override the GNU
424 linker script, selected via the LDSCRIPT, make variable, and to
425 give an initial value to the OBJCFLAGS make variable
426 - 8260 i2c enhancement:
427 o correctly extends the timeout depending on the size of all
428 queued messages for both transmit and receive
429 o will not continue with receive if transmit times out
430 o ensures that the error callback is done for all queued tx
431 and rx messages
432 o correctly detects both tx and rx timeouts, only delivers one to
433 the callback, and does not overwrite an earlier error
434 o logic in i2c_probe now correct
435 - add "vprintf()" function so that "panic()" function can be
436 technically correct
437 - many Hymod board changes

1066 being defined.

1078 Increase number of network RX buffers (PKTBUFSRX in
1079 "include/net.h") for EEPRO100 based boards (especially SP8240)
1080 which showed "Receiver is not ready" errors when U-Boot was
1081 processing the receive buffers slower than the network controller
1082 was filling them.
1083
1084 * Patch by Andreas Oberritter, 09 Nov 2002:
1085 Change behaviour of NetLoop(): return -1 for errors, filesize
1086 otherwise; return code 0 is valid an means no file loaded - in this
1087 case the environment still gets updated!
