+SuperH Specific Information
+###########################
+
+This chapter discusses the SuperH architecture dependencies in this port of
+RTEMS. The SuperH family has a wide variety of implementations by a wide range
+of vendors. Consequently, there are many, many CPU models within it.
+
+**Architecture Documents**
+
+For information on the SuperH architecture, refer to the following documents
+available from VENDOR (http://www.XXX.com/):
+
+- *SuperH Family Reference, VENDOR, PART NUMBER*.
+
+CPU Model Dependent Features
+============================
+
+This chapter presents the set of features which vary across SuperH
+implementations and are of importance to RTEMS. The set of CPU model feature
+macros are defined in the file ``cpukit/score/cpu/sh/sh.h`` based upon the
+particular CPU model specified on the compilation command line.
+
+Another Optional Feature
+------------------------
+
+The macro XXX
+
+Calling Conventions
+===================
+
+Calling Mechanism
+-----------------
+
+All RTEMS directives are invoked using a ``XXX`` instruction and return to the
+user application via the ``XXX`` instruction.
+
+Register Usage
+--------------
+
+The SH1 has 16 general registers (r0..r15).
+
+- r0..r3 used as general volatile registers
+
+- r4..r7 used to pass up to 4 arguments to functions, arguments above 4 are
+ passed via the stack)
+
+- r8..13 caller saved registers (i.e. push them to the stack if you need them
+ inside of a function)
+
+- r14 frame pointer
+
+- r15 stack pointer
+
+Parameter Passing
+-----------------

+
+Memory Model
+============
+
+Flat Memory Model
+-----------------
+
+The SuperH family supports a flat 32-bit address space with addresses ranging
+from 0x00000000 to 0xFFFFFFFF (4 gigabytes). Each address is represented by a
+32-bit value and is byte addressable. The address may be used to reference a
+single byte, word (2-bytes), or long word (4 bytes). Memory accesses within
+this address space are performed in big endian fashion by the processors in
+this family.
+
+Some of the SuperH family members support virtual memory and segmentation.
+RTEMS does not support virtual memory or segmentation on any of the SuperH
+family members. It is the responsibility of the BSP to initialize the mapping
+for a flat memory model.
+
+Interrupt Processing
+====================
+
+Although RTEMS hides many of the processor dependent details of interrupt
+processing, it is important to understand how the RTEMS interrupt manager is
+mapped onto the processor's unique architecture. Discussed in this chapter are
+the MIPS's interrupt response and control mechanisms as they pertain to RTEMS.
+
+Vectoring of an Interrupt Handler
+---------------------------------
+
+Upon receipt of an interrupt the XXX family members with separate interrupt
+stacks automatically perform the following actions:
+
+- TBD
+
+A nested interrupt is processed similarly by these CPU models with the
+exception that only a single ISF is placed on the interrupt stack and the
+current stack need not be switched.
+
+Interrupt Levels
+----------------
+
+TBD
+
+Default Fatal Error Processing
+==============================
+
+The default fatal error handler for this architecture disables processor
+interrupts, places the error code in *XXX*, and executes a ``XXX`` instruction
+to simulate a halt processor instruction.
+
+Symmetric Multiprocessing
+=========================
+
+SMP is not supported.
+
+Thread-Local Storage
+====================
+
+Thread-local storage is not implemented.
+
+Board Support Packages
+======================
+
+System Reset
+------------
+
+An RTEMS based application is initiated or
+re-initiated when the processor is reset. When the
+processor is reset, it performs the following actions:
+
+- TBD
+
+Processor Initialization
