RedBoot ROM monitor causes DMA errors!!

Hello,
My DMA problems with the AT91 EMAC Ethernet driver are solved (cf.
http://ecos.sourceware.org/ml/ecos-discuss/2008-06/msg00135.html).
The problems are caused by the RedBoot ROM monitor:
=> a RAM application has DMA problems (RX Overrun in EMAC Ethernet HW
block in AT91SAM9260)
=> a "JTAGRAM" application works fine
(JTAGRAM: initializes the VVT, so does not use/need a ROM monitor - from
my build script:
cdl_option CYGSEM_HAL_USE_ROM_MONITOR {
user_value 0 0
};
# cdl_option CYGSEM_HAL_VIRTUAL_VECTOR_INIT_WHOLE_TABLE {
# user_value 1
# # Default value: CYG_HAL_STARTUP != "RAM" ||
!CYGSEM_HAL_USE_ROM_MONITOR
# # option CYGSEM_HAL_VIRTUAL_VECTOR_CLAIM_DEFAULT
# # ActiveIf: !CYGSEM_HAL_VIRTUAL_VECTOR_INIT_WHOLE_TABLE
# # Requires: CYGSEM_HAL_VIRTUAL_VECTOR_CLAIM_RESET
# # Requires: CYGSEM_HAL_VIRTUAL_VECTOR_CLAIM_DELAY_US
# # Requires: CYGSEM_HAL_VIRTUAL_VECTOR_CLAIM_CACHE
# # Requires: CYGSEM_HAL_VIRTUAL_VECTOR_CLAIM_DATA
# # Requires: CYGSEM_HAL_VIRTUAL_VECTOR_CLAIM_COMMS
# }; default with rom monitor to 0
cdl_option CYGDBG_HAL_DEBUG_GDB_INCLUDE_STUBS {
user_value 0
};
)
Does anybody know why??
I am not debugging with gdb. I am only connected to the board with a
serial port to see the diag_printf's.
This is the startup procedure: Redboot ROM does 'fis load application; go;'
Kind regards,
Jürgen
