2. Configuration (environment variables) are saved in NVRAM for yk/sp, saved in
RAM for Excimer and Maximer. New command, env, manipulates these
configurations. Also implements multiple command aliases, however, da and ra are
still available.
3. New command, tau, display and/or calibrate the Thermal Assist Unit.
4. Faster download and no need to set character delays on the serial line, implemented
by turning on the duart FIFO.
5. Turn on both banks of memory in the YellowKnife and Sandpoint, now
32Megabytes is available on dink32 startup.
6. Improved printf format facilities, including floating point.
7. Most commands can now be placed into quiet mode, and verbose mode can be used
with the -v command. Default is verbose on both, same as always, with or without
ENV. The
‘-e’ mode expands fields and can be made default with env RDMODE=e.
Only Excimer and Maximer require the setup, and RDMODE can be ‘Q’ (quiet),
‘E’ (expand fields), or anything else. On Excimer and Maximer it can be set up with
these commands:
env -c, env rdmode=0
8. The dl command can be placed in silent mode with the “-q”.
9. rd or rm can use these aliases for the memory register, northbridge, nb, mpc106,
mpc107, or mpc8240.
10.Fixed command termination character, ‘x’, so it will not restart if unexpected.
11.Fixed problems with double prompts printed on startup with DCACHE.
12.Implement a new makefile, makefile_gcc, and conform the dink code to build with
the gcc eabi compatible compiler for processors that implement the PowerPC
architecture. Build and load works, all memory features are broken. This will be
fixed in the next release.
13.Implemented flash programming for PCI-hosted boot ROM on YK/SP platforms.
The command ‘fl -h’ transfers 512k from a specified memory location to the flash.
14.Added share memory between host and agent targets using the Address Translation
Unit (ATU).

1. Fixed invalid cacheing on 603. 603 does not reset the cache invalidate bits in
hardware, so added the facility in software.
2. Detects MPC107.
3. About command now reports board and processor identification.
4. Improved the help facility.
