Interactive DDR debugging Interactive DDR debugging
=========================== ===========================
For DDR parameter tuning up and debugging, the interactive DDR debugging can For DDR parameter tuning up and debugging, the interactive DDR debugger can
be activated by saving an environment variable "ddr_interactive". The value be activated by setting the environment variable "ddr_interactive" to any

controller. The available commands can be seen by typing "help". for now, the presence of the variable will cause the debugger to run.) Once
activated, U-boot will show the prompt "FSL DDR>" before enabling the DDR
controller. The available commands are printed by typing "help".
Another way to enter debug mode without using environment variable is to send Another way to enter the interactive DDR debugger without setting the
a key press during boot, like one would do to abort auto boot. To save booting environment variable is to send the 'd' character early during the boot
time, no additioal delay is added so the window to send the key press is very process. To save booting time, no additional delay is added, so the window
short. For example, user can send the key press using reset command followed by to send the key press is very short -- basically, it is the time before the
hitting enter key twice. In case of power on reset, user can keep hitting any memory controller code starts to run. For example, when rebooting from
key while applying the power. within u-boot, the user must press 'd' IMMEDIATELY after hitting enter to
initiate a 'reset' command. In case of power on/reset, the user can hold
down the 'd' key while applying power or hitting the board's reset button.
