Hi all:
I am trying to use the ethernet function onto the ARM E7T board. So
far s I know that there is no support for such function in eCOS. (at
least no device driver support) I would like to build the hardware
driver for the ethernet portion. (The hardware consists of a PHY
interfacing to the MAC layer). But I would like to use the TCP/IP stack
from eCOS for the higher layer function. So I want to build the lower
layer function the device driver support for hardware. Is there any
procedure I should follow for building such device driver, or any
requirement for driver to conform to in order to use the TCP/IP from
eCOS? Thank you for your help.
Best regards!
