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 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)
I've split the full intersil patch into seperate patches to see what files are needed and what files are not. From those files there should be a base intersil patch to create a kernel with a serial interface. (20060825: still no luck in compiling the base kernel)
mkdir -p output
rm output/*.diff 2>/dev/null
awk 'BEGIN {file="start.diff"; }
/^diff/ {file=$5;
gsub(/^[^/]*\//,"",file);
gsub(/^[^/]*\//,"",file);
gsub(/\//,"_",file);
gsub(/\./,"_",file);
gsub(/__/,"",file);
gsub(/$/,".diff",file);
gsub(/^/,"output/",file);
}
// { print >> file }
' isl-uclinux.patch
Kernel Tasks
- clean kernel (can jtag be usefull here?)
- 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)
