ISL3893 To be done list

These are to be done things and ideas.

Toolchain

The src/i386/ppc binaries seem to work for everyone now. Still there are some things that would be nice.

• use the standard software and only compile what is realy needed.
• remove libsmi because the datastore won't work. (done)

Kernel

• Try to pinpoint the original isl3893 patches so it can be ported to a newer 2.4 kernel
• wish the same for 2.6
• arch=isl3893
• prism54
• usb (sl811)
• mvc driver
• zcom switch (IC+ IP175A)

Kernel Tasks

• clean kernel (can jtag be usefull here?)
• arch patch
  • makefile
  • asm
  • gpio
• serial driver
• ethernet/bridge connectivity
• wireless driver
• usb

uClinux

• patch to select the architecture
• use the latest uClinux with the isl3893 source kernel
• Maybe even create romfs from here and use an old kernel.
• compile kernel with 2.95.3 and the rest with a newer gcc

• configure dhcp/static in the make menuconfig
• nfs mount
• usb mount

Firmware build

• upload util for small firmware (almost done)
• less verbosive build with logs
• choice of components (romfs, kernel, etc)

recovery image

• include imginstall
• static and dhcp
• enable ftpd
• enable shelld
• enable upgraded (and know how to use it 8-)

Hardware Tasks

• find places to tap gpio
  • WLAN led?
• i2c?
• second serial?
• layout (IP175A <=> ISL3893)
  • MII0 and MII1 are conencted to bridge?
  • where are the SMI connections?
• eeprom on the bottom is connected to the IP175A?
• memory map (a diff to the isl38xx map from prism54.org)
