Hi,
I am in the process of porting ARM Linux to a new platform with an ASIC
build on an ARM7TDMI core. I'm thinking of starting out with one of the
current ARM ports and apply the necessary changes. The question is which
port to start out from, I have been looking at the various ports to see what
similarities/differences there are.
- The RiscPC port has support for the ARM710 but my system is an embedded
one so I would have to get rid of lots of support for extra hardware.
- The Integrator has support for the ARM720 but that processor has the
coprocessor register 13, which I have been told would make things more
difficult.
- The Assabet and Brutus ports have support for the SA1100 which I
understand is quite similar to the ARM7 archtecture (from the OS's point of
view), part for the separate instruction and data caches.
I would greatly appreciate any input from the community.
Regards,
Johan Näsholm
