[uClinux-dev] uClinux mailserver, webserver, etc down for a few hours tomorrow.
All, The uClinux servers will all be unable for several hours from 1AM EDT until 10AM EDT as 13.8KV feed to the transformer servicing our building will be disconnected for severals hours for an emergency repair. Sorry for the sort notice .. the emergency notice just arrived. We had wicked wind gusts a few weeks ago that mechanically damaged two of the (3 phase) feed lines.

RE: [uClinux-dev] Moving to new kernel distro
Hi Michael, Thanks for the reponse. This all sounds very promising. I'm going ahead with the eval board acquisition and will update when I know more.

Freescale's LTIB Kernel release is not in sync with the public kernel. I understand that Freescale has both an OTG and host USB driver written but their released patched for the OTG and the patches for the host mode USB were not accepted by the Kernel USB maintainers. The uClinux-dist kernel release based on 2.6.21 we have used at Arcturus Networks for our uC532x modules does support USB thumb drives. The patches we have tested from Freescale for USB in the newer kernel versions extended support for mice, keyboards and other misc bits. -- Michael Durrant Arcturus Networks Inc.

RE: [uClinux-dev] Moving to new kernel distro
Thanks for the input Greg. I'm just in the middle of bringing up a new dev server so I can try all of this on. Should be going in next few days.

Generally yes. And for the newest processors you will need to move to 2.6. I haven't pushed new processor support into 2.4 kernels for a few years now either. (So for 5329 support you will need to use a 2.6 series kernel for example). > I've downloaded a distro and tried to get it running on a 5407 eval > board but have had no luck. Have you tried the very latest dist with the very latest patch: http://www.uclinux.org/pub/uClinux/dist/patches/uClinux-dist-20080808-20090423.patch.gz I recall a few console fixups recently that you may need in this patch. > I was trying to use the 2.6 kernel and it appears the 5407EVB is not > supported. I take it you mean the 5407C3 eval board? As far as I know that is the only eval board the for the 5407 that Motorola/Freescale have ever produced? Its in the dist as the "Freescale/M5407C3" target. > I believe it's a config issue. Has anybody tried this? Unfortunately my 5407C3 board no longer works, so it is not a board that I can regularly test anymore. But I would suggest trying out the patch above if you haven't already. Another thing to try would be hard configuring the RAM size in the kernel configs (incase the auto size detection is not working properly). > Is there anywhere I can find an example of a workng configuration for > the 5407EVB. > > If not, we are looking at getting a 5329 Eval board in house to look at. > > I've seen some comments about USB problems with 5329.

Do we use autoconf tools in uClinux. Though there are distributions like in the case of linux. But supported by mainly in NetBSD Project or that BSD Project which support ELF. Has this been achieved.

[uClinux-dev] [PATCH] elf2flt: always include elf/bfin.h
The header logic for pulling in ELF defines mixes common ELF headers and target specific headers. In the Blackfin case, we always want to pull in the bfin.h since most of the time, the common ELF headers do not have our relocation defines. This fixes building for mingw targets.
