51Porting
52-------
53This board support package is written for a naked Virtex 5/PPC FPGA
54system. The rough features of such a board are described above.
55The BSP itself makes no assumptions on what is loaded in the FPGA,
56other than that the CPU has access to some memory, either on-board
57or external, from which code can be run.
58
59This BSP has been constructed so that an application of both firmware
60and software can be layered on top of it by supplying implementations
61for the various 'weak' symbols.  These symbols are prefaced with the
62term 'app_'.  Applications can thus be built outside of the RTEMS
63directory tree by linking with the appropriate libraries.
64
65The linkcmds file describes the memory layout.  Included in this
66definition is a section of memory named MsgArea.  Output sent to
67stdout is recorded in this area and can be dumped using the JTAG
68interface, for example.
69
70For adapting this BSP to other boards, the following files should be
71modified:
72
73- c/src/lib/libbsp/powerpc/virtex5/startup/linkcmds
74        for the memory layout required
75
76- c/src/lib/libbsp/powerpc/virtex5/startup/bspstart.c
77        Here you can select the clock source for the timers and the
78        serial interface (system clock or external clock pin), the
79        clock rates, etc.
80
81- c/src/lib/libbsp/powerpc/virtex5/include/bsp.h
82        some BSP-related constants
83
84- c/src/lib/libbsp/powerpc/virtex5/*
85        well, they should be generic, so there _should_ be no reason
86        to mess around there (but who knows...)
