BSP for AT91SAM9263-EK

[Johannes Schock]

Hi RTEMS-Users,

First let me introduce myself:

I’m head of development of a small technology company in Germany (while
being head is easy while being the only one developer).

I work for several years with Realtime-Systems (ARC/Freescale MQX on
Coldfire, and Keil RL-ARM on ARM processors), and I’m about to finish a
12months project with an AT91SAM9263 running Keil RL-ARM, Nano-X and FLTK.

 

Now I’d like to create a RTEMS-BSP for the AT91SAM9263EK-Board. (Since this
will be a holiday project, it’ll last for a while.)

My first goal is to write a new specific interrupt handle with the following
features:

Using the benefits of the integrated AIC of AT91SAM9263 (e.g. 8-level
priority based nesting).

Separate IRQ from FIQ while only having the IRQ RTEMS-handled and the FIQ
running free (--> no RTEMS-calls from FIQ, but the possibility of a single
fast handler)

 

If someone has any hints or found already solutions for problems I will
face, please feel free to reply.

 

I also have a general question concerning licenses:

ATMEL has released the AT91lib, with support code for many peripherals of
the device/board. The code is under the following license:

Is it ok to put unmodified and modified portions of code covered by this
license and the license itself into a RTEMS-BSP?

 

Thanks in advance for any replies.
