eCos porting guide - focusing mainly on the ARM architecture (fragment) (PDF) german document/Dokument in deutsch
This manual shows you what has to be done to port eCos to a so far unsupported piece of hardware. The focus lies on the ARM architecture and the so called platform-port.
A platform-port means to port a given eCos port to another platform with hardly the same main CPU, e.g. from one StrongARM board to another StrongARM board.
Topics covered:
  • What's going on at boot time?
  • directory structure of a port
  • rewriting hal_platform_setup.h
  • rewriting PLATFORM_misc.h
  • writing a memory layout file
  • writing a glue driver for the platform flash memory
  • writing the package description (cdl-file)
  • including the new package into the eCos package database ecos.db
