Linux-2.6.12-rc2v2.6.12-rc2
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!

1 | Linux 2.4 on the CRIS architecture | ||
2 | ================================== | ||
3 | $Id: README,v 1.7 2001/04/19 12:38:32 bjornw Exp $ | ||
4 | |||
5 | This is a port of Linux 2.4 to Axis Communications ETRAX 100LX embedded | ||
6 | network CPU. For more information about CRIS and ETRAX please see further | ||
7 | below. | ||
8 | |||
9 | In order to compile this you need a version of gcc with support for the | ||
10 | ETRAX chip family. Please see this link for more information on how to | ||
11 | download the compiler and other tools useful when building and booting | ||
12 | software for the ETRAX platform: | ||
13 | |||
14 | http://developer.axis.com/doc/software/devboard_lx/install-howto.html | ||
15 | |||
16 | <more specific information should come in this document later> | ||
17 | |||
18 | What is CRIS ? | ||
19 | -------------- | ||
20 | |||
21 | CRIS is an acronym for 'Code Reduced Instruction Set'. It is the CPU | ||
22 | architecture in Axis Communication AB's range of embedded network CPU's, | ||
23 | called ETRAX. The latest CPU is called ETRAX 100LX, where LX stands for | ||
24 | 'Linux' because the chip was designed to be a good host for the Linux | ||
25 | operating system. | ||
26 | |||
27 | The ETRAX 100LX chip | ||
28 | -------------------- | ||
29 | |||
30 | For reference, plase see the press-release: | ||
31 | |||
32 | http://www.axis.com/news/us/001101_etrax.htm | ||
33 | |||
34 | The ETRAX 100LX is a 100 MIPS processor with 8kB cache, MMU, and a very broad | ||
35 | range of built-in interfaces, all with modern scatter/gather DMA. | ||
36 | |||
37 | Memory interfaces: | ||
38 | |||
39 | * SRAM | ||
40 | * NOR-flash/ROM | ||
41 | * EDO or page-mode DRAM | ||
42 | * SDRAM | ||
43 | |||
44 | I/O interfaces: | ||
45 | |||
46 | * one 10/100 Mbit/s ethernet controller | ||
47 | * four serial-ports (up to 6 Mbit/s) | ||
48 | * two synchronous serial-ports for multimedia codec's etc. | ||
49 | * USB host controller and USB slave | ||
50 | * ATA | ||
51 | * SCSI | ||
52 | * two parallel-ports | ||
53 | * two generic 8-bit ports | ||
54 | |||
55 | (not all interfaces are available at the same time due to chip pin | ||
56 | multiplexing) | ||
57 | |||
58 | The previous version of the ETRAX, the ETRAX 100, sits in almost all of | ||
59 | Axis shipping thin-servers like the Axis 2100 web camera or the ETRAX 100 | ||
60 | developer-board. It lacks an MMU so the Linux we run on that is a version | ||
61 | of uClinux (Linux 2.0 without MM-support) ported to the CRIS architecture. | ||
62 | The new Linux 2.4 port has full MM and needs a CPU with an MMU, so it will | ||
63 | not run on the ETRAX 100. | ||
64 | |||
65 | A version of the Axis developer-board with ETRAX 100LX (running Linux | ||
66 | 2.4) is now available. For more information please see developer.axis.com. | ||
67 | |||

69 | Bootlog | ||
70 | ------- | ||
71 | |||
72 | Just as an example, this is the debug-output from a boot of Linux 2.4 on | ||
73 | a board with ETRAX 100LX. The displayed BogoMIPS value is 5 times too small :) | ||
74 | At the end you see some user-mode programs booting like telnet and ftp daemons. | ||
