Again Red Hat and the eCos community have been working hard to deliver more
new ports and features to eCos and RedBoot. Here's a highlight of some
exciting new functionality we've added recently:
o eCos and RedBoot ported to the Compaq iPAQ PocketPC. Try out
our eCos Microwindows demo for the iPAQ at
http://sources.redhat.com/redboot/ipaq/ ! Support includes
keypad, touch screen, watchdog, FLASH, PCMCIA and Compact
Flash drivers. RedBoot includes support for booting ARM Linux.
Derived from an initial port by Richard Panton of 3G Lab and
enhanced significantly by Red Hat.
o eCos/RedBoot port to the ARM Evaluator-7T. Currently beta quality.
o eCos/RedBoot port to QED RM7000 Ocelot, including PCI, ethernet and
FLASH support.
o RedBoot ported to the MIPS Atlas eval board with MIPS32 4Kc or
MIPS64 5Kc processor modules, including PCI, serial, ethernet and
FLASH drivers.
o RedBoot support for ARM PID/EPI Dev7/EPI Dev9 targets.
o Port added to the Cosmo CEB-V850/SB1
o Compressed image support has been added to RedBoot
o ROM based file system support has been added, contributed by
Richard Panton of 3G Lab.
o Generic FLASH drivers added for Intel FlashFile 28Fxxx,
AMD AM29xxxxx, Atmel AT29C040 and Intel StrataFLASH
o Watchdog driver for Intel SA11x0 StrongARM added.
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
Red Hat is exhibiting at the Embedded Systems Conference San Francisco,
from Tuesday April 10th to Thursday April 12th inclusive. Come and see us
demo RedBoot, eCos, and Embedded Linux on stand 2110! Visit
http://www.esconline.com/sf/ for more details about the show.
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
We've given parts of the eCos net site - http://sources.redhat.com/ecos/ -
a new look, particularly the Supported Hardware section, and we've added a
new area dedicated to RedBoot at http://sources.redhat.com/redboot/
Let us know what you think!

Hi Thomas,
see this, are you ready to deploy a working SW environment once you
may announce your MIPS engine?

I reordered and optimized the interrupt handler code path to reduce the
interrupt latency. It should be idempotent.

Ok, a first quick look at the images showed me that they had different size.
That's why I disassembled them and found that different vectors.S were used
for instance. Don't know if they're really functional different but they
contain different code fragments (i.e. after label exception: )...
If the differences are not so important then forget my comments.

Well, the images weren't generated as the very last thing - they were just
confirmed as "known good". What are you seeing that's so obviously
different?

After looking at the (new) images of the gdb stubs for the V850 CEB board
I noticed that I'm unable to build an exact copy of them. The provided
images were obviously built from other (older?) sources. Is this a bug or
a feature? ;-)
In the first case you should probably update the images on the cvs server.
In the latter case I would be interested in some explanation.

You're right. Thanks for that patch file. I've updated the instructions
accordingly!

It's nice to see that the V850 architecture is (still) actively supported by
Red Hat!
But one small remark: you should mention in your tool building instructions
for the V850 tools that GDB-5.0 and INSIGHT-5.0 have to be patched in order
to support breakpoints for the V850! We struggled for several weeks to get
breakpoints work until we found out that the original GDB-5.0 assumes a
different breakinst than eCos resp. newer gdb-stubs. The attached small patch
removes this problem (it can be applied in the same way as the insight-tcl.pat
patch).
Yes, we know that newer GDB and INSIGHT sources have already incorporated this
change but unfortunately we found no actual version which compiled under Linux
(we use SUSE 7.0 but that shouldn't matter!?) as well as under Cygwin! If
someone knows "a known good" version of INSIGHT sources we would be interested.

"More Info" link for iq80310 in the Supported Hardware Page is broken. Otherwise, I think, it is a very good arrangement.
-Thanks,
