This is the README file for libcpu.
This directory contains reusable libraries which are CPU dependent but not
-target board dependent. For example, the HPPA has an on chip interval timer
-which may be used by all HPPA bsp's.

+Drivers.
-Another example might be the Intel i960CA has on-chip DMA which could be
-supported in a library and placed in lib/libcpu/i960. This level of support
+Other examples include the caching support for the m68k CPU models and
+MIPS CPU model exception vectoring routines. This level of support
will make it easier for others developing embedded applications on a given
CPU.
