[GSoC 2020]: Doubts in building RSB Recipe for EPICS for multiple architectures

[Mritunjay Sharma]

Hi Chris and Joel,

Thanks for the discussion!

Please find the patch for PC for EPICS here
https://github.com/mritunjaysharma394/epics-mritunjay/blob/master/patches/0001-Added-Support-for-RTEMS-pc386.patch

As an experiment, in the 4 patches I have sent to devel for RSB recipe a few days pack, I worked on a local file. I will modify it to published source soon in the next version of patch.

There are a few corrections in the blog that I have to make and then republish. It’s a bit late here in India now and I am a bit sleepy. Please if you don’t mind can I send the blog link in around 6-7 hrs from now?

Thanks
Mritunjay

There is a patch to EPICS for the PC BSP that I cannot find posted online anywhere.

It currently is the legacy stack. Heinz has changes pending for RTEMS 5.
