Summary
  =======
  
  This README is about U-Boot support for TI's ARM Cortex-A8 based OMAP3 [1]
  family of SoCs. TI's OMAP3 SoC family contains an ARM Cortex-A8. Additionally,
  some family members contain a TMS320C64x+ DSP and/or an Imagination SGX 2D/3D
  graphics processor and various other standard peripherals.
  
  Currently the following boards are supported:
  
  * OMAP3530 BeagleBoard [2]

  * Gumstix Overo [3]

  * TI EVM [4]

  * OpenPandora Ltd. Pandora [5]

  * TI/Logic PD Zoom MDK [6]

  * TI/Logic PD Zoom 2 [7]

  * CompuLab Ltd. CM-T35 [8]

  Custom commands
  ===============
  
  To make U-Boot for OMAP3 support NAND device SW or HW ECC calculation, U-Boot
  for OMAP3 supports custom user command
  
  nandecc hw/sw
  
  To be compatible with NAND drivers using SW ECC (e.g. kernel code)
  
  nandecc sw
  
  enables SW ECC calculation. HW ECC enabled with
  
  nandecc hw
  
  is typically used to write 2nd stage bootloader (known as 'x-loader') which is
  executed by OMAP3's boot rom and therefore has to be written with HW ECC.
  
  For all other commands see

  Interfaces
  ==========
  
  gpio

  ----

  
  To set a bit :

  	if (!gpio_request(N, "")) {
  		gpio_direction_output(N, 0);
  		gpio_set_value(N, 1);

  	}
  
  To clear a bit :

  	if (!gpio_request(N, "")) {
  		gpio_direction_output(N, 0);
  		gpio_set_value(N, 0);

  	}
  
  To read a bit :

  	if (!gpio_request(N, "")) {
  		gpio_direction_input(N);
  		val = gpio_get_value(N);
  		gpio_free(N);

  	}
  	if (val)
  		printf("GPIO N is set
  ");
  	else
  		printf("GPIO N is clear
  ");

  dma
  ---
  void omap3_dma_init(void)
  	Init the DMA module
  int omap3_dma_get_conf_chan(uint32_t chan, struct dma4_chan *config);
  	Read config of the channel
  int omap3_dma_conf_chan(uint32_t chan, struct dma4_chan *config);
  	Write config to the channel
  int omap3_dma_conf_transfer(uint32_t chan, uint32_t *src, uint32_t *dst,
  		uint32_t sze)
  	Config source, destination and size of a transfer
  int omap3_dma_wait_for_transfer(uint32_t chan)
  	Wait for a transfer to end - this hast to be called before a channel
  	or the data the channel transferd are used.
  int omap3_dma_get_revision(uint32_t *minor, uint32_t *major)
  	Read silicon Revision of the DMA module

  NAND
  ====
  
  There are some OMAP3 devices out there with NAND attached. Due to the fact that
  OMAP3 ROM code can only handle 1-bit hamming ECC for accessing first page
  (place where SPL lives) we require this setup for u-boot at least when reading
  the second progam within SPL.  A lot of newer NAND chips however require more
  than 1-bit ECC for the pages, some can live with 1-bit for the first page. To
  handle this we can switch to another ECC algorithm after reading the payload
  within SPL.
  
  BCH8
  ----
  
  To enable hardware assisted BCH8 (8-bit BCH [Bose, Chaudhuri, Hocquenghem]) on
  OMAP3 devices we can use the BCH library in lib/bch.c. To do so add CONFIG_BCH

  and set CONFIG_NAND_OMAP_ECCSCHEME=5 (refer README.nand) for selecting BCH8_SW.

  The NAND OOB layout is the same as in linux kernel, if the linux kernel BCH8
  implementation for OMAP3 works for you so the u-boot version should also.
  When you require the SPL to read with BCH8 there are two more configs to
  change:
  
   * CONFIG_SYS_NAND_ECCPOS (must be the same as .eccpos in
     GPMC_NAND_HW_BCH8_ECC_LAYOUT defined in
     arch/arm/include/asm/arch-omap3/omap_gpmc.h)
   * CONFIG_SYS_NAND_ECCSIZE must be 512
   * CONFIG_SYS_NAND_ECCBYTES must be 13 for this BCH8 setup
