From fb9acad30562177287d8cffec19e5dfa6f072de7 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Stefan Roese Date: Thu, 13 Feb 2020 07:04:00 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] mips: cmd: go: Flush cache before jumping to app/image It has been noticed on MT7628/88 platforms, that booting the RAM image does not work reliably. Sometimes it works and sometimes not. Debugging showed that this "might" be a cache related issue as very strange errors occurred (e.g. output corrupted etc). This patch adds a cache flush for the complete SDRAM area to the go cmd before jumping to the entry point for the MIPS architecture. The complete area is flushed as we don't know at this point, how big the area of the "application" really is.
