- Reply-to: uni at martinlaabs dot de
Hi,
I'm currenly porting eCos to the AT91SAM9260 processor and Olimex
evaluation board. I work on the code from Evgeniy Dushisto.
Now he placed the linker scripts into the processor package. Its the
same the AT91SAM7 ports in the current cvs repository. The linker
scripts are all in the processor package.
From my intention the linker script belongs to the specific board
package since (at most) every board need its own configuration.
The same should apply to the initialization of the memory at startup.
However - this could be made in a universal way at the processor package
with many defines in the board package. (But I wouldn't prefer that.)
Whats the opinion of the eCos gurus to that placement question?
Greetings,
Martin L.
PS: Why is the code of Evgeniy Dushisto no in the cvs repository till
now? As long as I know he made the licensing stuff.
