Power-On Self Test

When the ATCA-F140 is booted, U-boot executes a series of Power-On Self test (POST)
routines. These routines check the functionality of different controllers and other on-board
resources. The result is stored in memory and has the following format.

Offset
0x0
0x4
0x8
Information about the POST status can also be obtained by reading the SYS FW
PROGRESS IPMI sensor. Depending on the POST status, the sensor holds the following
values.

POST Result Format
Description
Magic word: 0xAA55FCE0
CRC32 checksum over the POST result string
POST result string. This is a zero-terminated string based on the following XML-
like syntax:[<T=tag>[<E>Error_description</E>]*</T>]*
tag identifies the device that was tested. If no POST error was detected, then the
closing tag </T> follows immediately after the opening tag.
Error_Description contains an error description of the corresponding <T>
tag. Note that the <T> tags can be nested, if for example several subtests are
performed in one device. See the following example.
<T=FPGA></T>
<T=DRAM><E>Address line</E></T>
<T=PCI><T=BIX></T><T=FIX2></T><T=FIX1></T></T>
<T=SPI><T=BEXT></T></T>
<T=I2C><T=CTRL1></T><T=CTRL2></T></T>
<T=MDIO><T=PHY0></T><T=PHY1></T><T=PHY2><
