2--------------------------

4These changes implement the bedbug (emBEDded deBUGger) debugger in U-Boot.
Wolfgang Denk0c8721a2005-09-23 11:05:55 +0200[diff] [blame]5A specific implementation is made for the AMCC 405 processor but other flavors
wdenke2211742002-11-02 23:30:20 +0000[diff] [blame]6can be easily implemented.
