    BEDBUG Support for U-Boot
    --------------------------
    
    These changes implement the bedbug (emBEDded deBUGger) debugger in U-Boot.
    A specific implementation is made for the IBM405 processor but other flavors
    can be easily implemented.
    
    #####################
    ### Modifications ###
    #####################
    
    ./common/Makefile
    	Included cmd_bedbug.c and bedbug.c in the Makefile.
    
    ./common/command.c
    	Added bedbug commands to command table.
    
    ./common/board.c
    	Added call to initialize debugger on startup.
    
    ./cpu/ppc4xx/Makefile
    	Added bedbug_405.c to the Makefile.
    
    ./cpu/ppc4xx/start.S
    	Added code to handle the debug exception (0x2000) on the 405.
    	Also added code to handle critical exceptions since the debug
    	is treated as critical on the 405.
    
    ./cpu/ppc4xx/traps.c
    	Added more detailed output for the program exception to tell
    	if it is an illegal instruction, privileged instruction or
    	a trap. Also added debug trap handler.
    
    ./include/cmd_confdefs.h
    	Added definition of CFG_CMD_BEDBUG.
    
    ./include/config_WALNUT405.h
    	Added CFG_CMD_BEDBUG to the CONFIG_COMMANDS for the WALNUT.
    
    ./include/ppc_asm.tmpl
    	Added code to handle critical exceptions
    
    #################
    ### New Stuff ###
    #################
    
    ./include/bedbug/ppc.h
    ./include/bedbug/regs.h
    ./include/bedbug/bedbug.h
    ./include/bedbug/elf.h		[obsoleted by new include/elf.h]
    ./include/bedbug/tables.h
    ./include/cmd_bedbug.h
    ./common/cmd_bedbug.c
    ./common/bedbug.c
    	Bedbug library includes code for assembling and disassembling
    	PowerPC instructions to/from memory as well as handling
    	hardware breakpoints and stepping through code.  These
    	routines are common to all PowerPC processors.
    
    ./cpu/ppc4xx/bedbug_405.c
    	IBM PPC405 specific debugger routines.
    
    
    Bedbug support for the MPC860
    -----------------------------
    
    Changes:
    
    	common/cmd_bedbug.c
    		Added call to initialize 860 debugger.
    
    	cpu/mpc8xx/Makefile
    		Added new file "bedbug_860.c" to the makefile
    
    	cpu/mpc8xx/start.S
    		Added handler for InstructionBreakpoint (0xfd00)
    
    	cpu/mpc8xx/traps.c
    		Added new routine DebugException()
    
    	include/config_MBX.h
    		Added CFG_CMD_BEDBUG to CONFIG_COMMANDS define
    
    
    New Files:
    
    	cpu/mpc8xx/bedbug_860.c
    		CPU-specific routines for 860 debug registers.
