| 4 | When porting RTEMS to a new CPU architecture, one will have to have a |
---|
| 5 | development environment including compiler, assembler, linker, and |
---|
| 6 | debugger. The GNU development tool suite used by RTEMS supports most |
---|
| 7 | modern CPU families. Often all that is required is to add RTEMS |
---|
| 8 | configurations for the target CPU family. RTEMS targets for the GNU tools |
---|
| 9 | usually start life as little more than aliases for existing embedded |
---|
| 10 | configurations. At this point in time, ELF is supported on most of the |
---|
| 11 | CPU families with a tool target of the form CPU-elf. If this target is |
---|
| 12 | not supported by all of the GNU tools, then it will be necessary to |
---|
| 13 | determine the configuration that makes the best starting point regardless |
---|
| 14 | of the target object format. |
---|
| 15 | |
---|
| 16 | Porting and retargetting the GNU tools is beyond the scope of this manual. |
---|
| 17 | The best advice that can be offered is to look at the existing RTEMS |
---|
| 18 | targets in the tool source and use that as a guideline. |
