Hi Andrew,
JTST has the same AIC controller as the other AT91 platforms, but jtst uses
both line 0 (FIQ, connected with dsp halt signal) and line 1 (IRQ).
In general atmel AIC has 1 FIQ +31 IRQs always available, depends on the
board/SOC if they are used.
In this simple at91 port I included the minimum to run eCos on diopsis and
to lunch dsp applications.
It exists supplemental DSP APIs for debbuging, user support and for system
service routines. The problem is
that I have to undestand the best way to plug them into eCos.
At the moment I have a package that is situated in my local tree in
package/devs/dsp/arm/magic.
I thought magic as a device. It works, but I'm absolutely not sure that is
the right thing to do.
We have developed (work done by atmel China) an ecos driver also for the USB
(philips isp1181) included in the JTST; but I must check if we can
distribute the sources..
At the moment all JTST in the world have Redboot installed in flash and run
obviously eCos applications.
Here two links to jtst datasheets:

thank you for your patience and attention.
best regards.
Andrea.

This is useful info, could you consider adding appropriate info containing
useful info like this and some of the other things you've written as a
README in the doc/ subdirectory of the platform HAL? SGML Docbook would be
even better as it would mean it could be integrated into the full proper
eCos documentation set (as at
<http://ecos.sourceware.org/docs-latest/ref/ecos-ref.html>).

Humm. As a starting point that is reasonable.
However we might want to think a bit about the long term. I can see
more silicon with a CPU and a DSP together comming along. eg there is
TI OMAP and im sure there are others. You should also think about your
own internal plans. Maybe you will release another chipset which has
the same DSP but a different processor. Or maybe you keep the same
processor but have a different DSP. You want to keep the API the same
to make it easy to port software between the different systems.
So you might want to split it up into multiple packages. Maybe one
package that implements the API. Another which implements the things
which are specific to the DSP and a third which is specific to the
processor?
Now is the API generic enough that it could say be used for the OMAP
or some other manufactures CP+DSP chipset? Im guessing not, it would
be very difficult to have such a generic API.
So maybe you need something like the following structure
packages/devs/dsp/atmel/magic
packages/devs/dsp/atmel/jtst
packages/devs/dsp/atmel/api
Since there is nothing like this at the moment we have much more
freedom for discussion, so if you have other ideas or requirements
please let us know.

We would also need to look at the copyright assignment. Is it specifc
to you, Atmel Italy, or Atmel world wide?

The splitting you propose sounds good.
I agree with you to found the final good solution we need some discussion.
The copyright agreement I sent to you covers all the code written by me in
Atmel Rome (jtst port, patches... it was signed by our Atmel Rome CEO).
Diopsis (and all boards) is an Atmel Rome project that's responsible for all
the hardware and the software product.
For the usb driver (separate package from atmel Asia), at the moment I can't
include sources. The authors, have to ask permission to their local CEO.
thanks again
best regards.
Andrea.

Out of interest, virtually all copyright assignments we do are with
individuals, not companies as a whole.
