Coldfire questions

[Victor V. Vengerov]

Alan,

I have got mcf5206elite BSP running on this simulator today. Patch for 
simulator from David Grant is attached. See transcript to learn how to 
run RTEMS:

Simulator session:

[vvv at gimli coldfire-0.3.0]$ ./coldfire --board lite-5206e.board
Use CTRL-C (SIGINT) to cause autovector interrupt 7 (return to monitor)
Loading memory modules...
Loading board configuration...
       Opened [/home/vvv/.coldfire/lite-5206e.board]
Board ID: LITE
CPU: 5206 (Motorola Coldfire 5206)
       unimplemented instructions: CPUSHL PULSE WDDATA WDEBUG
       62 instructions registered
       building instruction cache... done.
Memory segments: adram  timer1  timer2  uart1(on port 5206)
                uart2(on port 5207)  sim  sdram  fsram
                gpio  rom
!!! Remember to telnet to the above ports if you want to see any output!
Hard Reset...
Initializing monitor...
Enter 'help' for help.

i_movec:execute(): Storing 0x3000c000 in the ACR0 is unimplemented!
i_movec:execute(): Storing 0xff00c000 in the ACR1 is unimplemented!
serial:serial_write(): uart1: Setting Auxiliary Control Register (UACR) 
IEC (Interrupt Enable Control) has no effect, because we don't have a 
CTS pin on the serial port to interrupt on.  Sorry.

Telnet session:
[vvv at gimli coldfire-0.3.0]$ telnet localhost 5206
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to localhost.

*** HELLO WORLD TEST ***
Hello World
*** END OF HELLO WORLD TEST ***

There are some problems with loading ELF files; use m68k-rtems-objcopy 
-O binary <prog>.exe <prog>.bin to get binary image.

Also note that simulation speed is quite low, so you may need to wait 
while tests relying on timer completed.

Don't forget to copy board description files to $HOME/.coldfire, or set 
symbolic link from $HOME/.coldfire to <prefix>/usr/share/coldfire (or 
install simulator to /usr/local).
