I'm kind of confused on this one...
How would I specify a DRAMC or CAS setting (after referring to the 440BX
intel spec pdf)?
For example:
--- Snip from Intel pdf ---
NBXCFG—NBX Configuration Register (Device 0)
Offset: 50–53h
Default: bits 31–16: 0000h
bits 15–0: 00S0-0000-000S-0S00b
Access: Read/
Size: 32 bits
...snip...
Bit
13:12 00 = 100 MHz, 11 = Reserved
--- End Snip from Intel pdf ---
Again, just using this as an example as values should be provided by SPD
values. In i440bx/raminit.c, we set this with the following values:
NBXCFG, 0x00000000, 0xff00a00c,
I'm guessing the "0x00000000" & "0xff00a00c" values are calculated by
somehow adding all the settings possible for NBX and somehow, the value
is uniquely recognized by the Northbridge??
