This process includes a variety of activities -including the following: - -@itemize @bullet - -@item targeting the GNU development tools - -@item porting the RTEMS executive code - -@item developing a Board Support Package - -@item writing an RTEMS CPU Supplement manual for the completed port. - -@end itemize - -This document focuses on the process of actually porting the RTEMS -executive code proper. Each of the data structures, routines, and macro -definitions required of a port of RTEMS is described in this document. - -Porting any operating system, including RTEMS, requires knowledge of the -operating system, target CPU architecture, and debug environment. It is -very desirable to have a CPU simulator or hardware emulator when debugging -the port. This manual assumes that the user is familiar with building and -using RTEMS, the C programming language, and the target CPU architecture. -It is desirable to be familiar with the assembly language for the target -CPU family but since only a limited amount of assembly is required to port -RTEMS. - |
