Hi,

 

I am adding support for a MPcore SoC in Uboot. For that secondary cores
need to execute WFI (wait for interrupt) instruction.

But while building the source I am getting the following error:

 

arm-none-eabi-gcc   -D__ASSEMBLY__ -g  -Os   -fno-common -ffixed-r8
-msoft-float  -D__KERNEL__ -DCONFIG_SYS_TEXT_BASE=0x60800000
-I/media/disk/work/u-boot_ct11mpc_osi_evs/include -fno-builtin
-ffreestanding -nostdinc -isystem
/home/sandeepk/CodeSourcery/Sourcery_G++_Lite/bin/../lib/gcc/arm-none-ea
bi/4.5.2/include -pipe  -DCONFIG_ARM -D__ARM__ -marm  -mabi=aapcs-linux
-mno-thumb-interwork -march=armv5   -o lowlevel_init.o lowlevel_init.S
-c

lowlevel_init.S: Assembler messages:

lowlevel_init.S:92: Error: missing expression -- `swi'

make[1]: *** [lowlevel_init.o] Error 1

make[1]: Leaving directory
`/media/disk/work/u-boot_ct11mpc_osi_evs/board/armltd/versatile_11mpc'

make: *** [board/armltd/versatile_11mpc/libversatile_11mpc.o] Error 2

 

How can I implement this instruction or how can I directly insert the
hex code for this instruction.

 

Regards,

Sandeep

I'm not sure this is a u-boot question and you didn't show your code (I assume
you changed the file).

'swi' is not a WFI. swi takes a expression - the software interrupt number you
want to pass to the software interrupt exception routine. Your routine is free
to ignore that number, but a 'swi' must have one to have the correct syntax.

WFI on ARM SoC's is usually some kind of register write, specific to that SoC.

Are you trying to use WFI or SWI?

A '.word' directive with the hex value of the instruction should work.
