Boot Management - Analog Devices ADSP-BF506F Hardware Reference Manual

At each pass, nine 32-bit words are written to the log file, as follows.
• block code word (
• target address (
• byte count (
• argument word (
• source pointer (
• block count (
• internal copy of the

• 0xFFFF FFFA (-6) constant
The ninth word is overwritten by the next entry set, so that 0xFFFF FFFA
always marks the last entry in the log file.
Most of the data structures used by the boot kernel reside on the stack in
scratchpad memory. While executing the boot kernel routine (excluding
subroutines), the

Boot Management

Blackfin processor hardware platforms may be required to run different
software at different times. An example might be a system with at least one
application and one in-the-field firmware upgrade utility. Other systems
may have multiple applications, one starting then terminating, to be
replaced by another application. Conditional booting is called boot man-
agement. Some applications may self-manage their booting rules, while
