+ * startup/bspstart.c, startup/bspstart.c.nocache: Add capability for
+ bootcard.c BSP Initialization Framework to ask the BSP where it has
+ memory for the RTEMS Workspace and C Program Heap. These collectively
+ are referred to as work area. If the BSP supports this, then it does
+ not have to include code to split the available memory between the
+ two areas. This reduces the amount of code in the BSP specific
+ bspstart.c file. Additionally, the shared framework can initialize
+ the C Library, call rtems_debug_enable(), and dirty the work area
+ memory. Until most/all BSPs support this new capability, if the BSP
+ supports this, it should call
+ RTEMS_BSP_BOOTCARD_HANDLES_RAM_ALLOCATION from its configure.ac. When
+ the transition is complete, this autoconf macro can be removed.
