I suggest you create a ticket for this project like the other GSoC tickets we<br>
have and add some additional details ..<br>
<br>
- Please list the archs supported, this is viewable in the src tree.<br>
- Add something about needing Chromium's depot_tools. I see FreeBSD is not<br>
listed but chromium is available on FreeBSD.<br>
- Investigate the build system and if it is possible to cross-compile.<br></blockquote></div></div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">I'm a bit concerned that it may require things RTEMS does not have. Does it mmap in ways we don't support? I doubt it forks new processes but that has to be answered. Some basic research plus an attempt to compile it for RTEMS with problem sections disabled is a good first step of any porting evaluation.</div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">FWIW I looked at porting the PDF viewer from chromium to RTEMS.
