Part Number: TDA2PXEVM

Tool/software: Linux

Hi,

I need to configure U-Boot for 4GB DDR and need to check with mtest utility.

Right now I have added the following changes for enabling mtest:

1)CONFIG_CMD_MEMTEST=y in the file dra7xx_evm_vision_defconfig

#define CONFIG_SYS_MEMTEST_START 0x80000000
#define CONFIG_SYS_MEMTEST_END (CONFIG_SYS_MEMTEST_START + (32 << 20))

I need to do changes in Uboot for 4GB DD3. Can anyone suggest me the changes.

Also please let me know what parameters should i set in uboot for mtest

DDR Part number is MT41K512M8DA-107

Regards,

Deep

Hi,
Can you run bdinfo command on your U-boot prompt? And let us know what do you see.
You can derive parameters for memtest from the output of bdinfo.

Hi Deep,

You can run "mtest" from U-boot. Refer the command description from the link below www.denx.de/.../UBootCmdGroupMemory
Your start address of the mtest from U-boot can be 0x80000000 and end address can be beginning of "sp start" in the bdinfo.

But this command is not enabled by default. You will need to change the defconfig to enable the same?
Also, which version of SDK are you using?

If you are able to boot to the kernel prompt, I would suggest running memtest from kernel.

Somnath

Hi Deep,
Running you should be able to run memtester from Linux prompt following the standard process described at linux.die.net/.../memtester.
