+External Debug Support
+----------------------
+
+Freescale's e500v1 and e500v2 cores (used in mpc85xx chips) have some
+restrictions on external debugging (JTAG). In particular, for the debugger to
+be able to receive control after a single step or breakpoint:
+ - MSR[DE] must be set
+ - A valid opcode must be fetchable, through the MMU, from the debug
+ exception vector (IVPR + IVOR15).
+
+To maximize the time during which this requirement is met, U-Boot sets MSR[DE]
+immediately on entry and keeps it set. It also uses a temporary TLB to keep a
+mapping to a valid opcode at the debug exception vector, even if we normally
+don't support exception vectors being used that early, and that's not the area
+where U-Boot currently executes from.
+
+Note that there may still be some small windows where debugging will not work,
+such as in between updating IVPR and IVOR15.
