Hi, the port is complete for all current MPC55xx and MPC56xx devices, that
support classic PowerPC coding. There is currently no official VLE support,
since GCC for VLE will only be available next year (2011). This means, that all
MPC560xB/C/E/P/S devices are not supported. We are currently working on the
enhancements to support Redboot with load to Flash and execute from there,
since we originally did not really focus on Redboot, since typically the
devices of that MCU family have not enough RAM to load and execute from there.
Once this work is complete, I was intending to upload the package here again,
hoping that the maintainers would integrate it into the main tree. Last time my
contribution was ignored, so I am not sure, what I can do, if it is ignored
again. Currently I maintain it mainly for our internal purposes but I am more
than happy to give that code to anyone.
