1 Notes for the Blackfin architecture port of Das U-Boot 2 3 ========= 4 ! ABOUT ! 5 ========= 6 7 <marketing blurb> 8 Blackfin Processors embody a new breed of 16/32-bit embedded processor, ideally 9 suited for products where a convergence of capabilities are necessary - 10 multi-format audio, video, voice and image processing; multi-mode baseband and 11 packet processing; control processing; and real-time security. The Blackfin's 12 unique combination of software flexibility and scalability has gained it 13 widespread adoption in convergent applications. 14 </marketing blurb> 15 16 The Blackfin processor is wholly developed by Analog Devices Inc. 17 18 =========== 19 ! SUPPORT ! 20 =========== 21 22 All open source code for the Blackfin processors are being handled via our 23 collaborative website: 24 http://blackfin.uclinux.org/ 25 26 In particular, bug reports, feature requests, help etc... for Das U-Boot are 27 handled in the Das U-Boot sub project: 28 http://blackfin.uclinux.org/gf/project/u-boot 29 30 This website is backed both by an open source community as well as a dedicated 31 team from Analog Devices Inc. 32 33 ============= 34 ! TOOLCHAIN ! 35 ============= 36 37 To compile the Blackfin aspects, you'll need the GNU toolchain configured for 38 the Blackfin processor. You can obtain such a cross-compiler here: 39 http://blackfin.uclinux.org/gf/project/toolchain 40 41 ================= 42 !
