I have merged Wilfried's work into my local rtems-4.7 source tree, but
have encountered problems with it:

1. Wilfried's code is incomplete.

* The corresponding cpuIdent* support code is missing (I'd expect this
to be trivial for somebody being familiar with the mpc5xx's)

* There is no BSP (The only possibility to compile this code is the bare
BSP).

2. It is not clear to me which mpc5xx cpus this code is supposed to
support nor which gcc target flags this code expects (powerpc-gcc has
plenty of -mcpu flags)

3. How is this code supposed to interact with the code in
libcpu/powerpc/mpc505 - Is it to replacement that code? Is it an
alternative?

All in all, I don't want to integrated this code into the source tree
before these points have been clarified.

Hi all,
I just downloaded and compiled rtems 4.6.0 bsp i386/pc486.
When I tried to build application using PCI I
got error from linker that function BusCountPCI
called in BSP_pciFindDevice is not found.
Is there available patch for this?

And second question: I want to look (only) what bugs are
reported and when I tried to look at so called gnats database page
I was asked about login and password. So question: where can I
saw this reported problems/bugs?
