+Epiphany Specific Information
+#############################
+
+This chapter discusses the`Epiphany Architecture <http://adapteva.com/docs/epiphany_sdk_ref.pdf>`_
+dependencies in this port of RTEMS. Epiphany is a chip that can come with 16 and
+64 cores, each of which can run RTEMS separately or they can work together to
+run a SMP RTEMS application.
+
+**Architecture Documents**
+
+For information on the Epiphany architecture refer to the`Epiphany Architecture Reference <http://adapteva.com/docs/epiphany_arch_ref.pdf>`_.
+
+Calling Conventions
+===================
+
+Please refer to the`Epiphany SDK <http://adapteva.com/docs/epiphany_sdk_ref.pdf>`_
+Appendix A: Application Binary Interface
+
+Floating Point Unit
+-------------------
+
+A floating point unit is currently not supported.
+
+Memory Model
+============
+
+A flat 32-bit memory model is supported, no caches. Each core has its own 32 KiB
+strictly ordered local memory along with an access to a shared 32 MiB external
+DRAM.
+
+Interrupt Processing
+====================
+
+Every Epiphany core has 10 exception types:
+
+- Reset
+
+- Software Exception
+
+- Data Page Fault
+
+- Timer 0
+
+- Timer 1
+
+- Message Interrupt
+
+- DMA0 Interrupt
+
+- DMA1 Interrupt
+
+- WANT Interrupt
+
+- User Interrupt
+
+Interrupt Levels
+----------------
+
+There are only two levels: interrupts enabled and interrupts disabled.
+
+Interrupt Stack
+---------------
+
+The Epiphany RTEMS port uses a dedicated software interrupt stack.
+The stack for interrupts is allocated during interrupt driver initialization.
+When an  interrupt is entered, the _ISR_Handler routine is responsible for
+switching from the interrupted task stack to RTEMS software interrupt stack.
+
+Default Fatal Error Processing
+==============================
+
+The default fatal error handler for this architecture performs the
+following actions:
+
+- disables operating system supported interrupts (IRQ),
+
+- places the error code in ``r0``, and
+
+- executes an infinite loop to simulate a halt processor instruction.
+
+Symmetric Multiprocessing
+=========================
+
+SMP is not supported.
