Hi All,<div><br></div><div>I am no success in booting up the ARM1176 processor with the linux-2.6.32 kernel.</div><div><br></div><div>While googling about the ARM Harvard architecture, I came to know that we have to flush/invalidate the D-Cache and I-Cache </div>
<div>when using the self modifying codes.</div><div><br></div><div>So here my questions/doubts :</div><div>1) Is'nt it the kernel itself is self modifying code with lots of function pointers ?</div><div> If yes, how is synchronization b/w d-cache and i-cache handled in the kernel ?</div>
<div>2) Can this be the reason for the kernel not booting for me ?</div><div> Because If i disable the I-Cache in the config, then the kernel boots up without any issues.</div><div><br></div><div>Any pointers on this will be of great help.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Thanks & Best Regards</div><div>Ashok</div><div> <br><div><br></div><div><br></div></div>
