generall RTEMS questions

[Hoefle Marco]

Hello,

we have currently the RTEMS sources from Gaisler in use (as they have
their drivers not in mainline RTEMS, unfortunately).

The Gaisler RTEMS kernel is based on 4.10.

However, a few useful features are only available in 4.11 (JFFS2 File
system for example).

We are thinking on moving to 4.11 but we are wondering if there is a
proper tested stable version available. In 4-10 are tags in 4-11 I did
not find one.

 

Would you recommend using 4.11 in a production environment?

 

We use rtems source builder which works fine. However, we still do not
understand why is there such a dependency toolchain - rtems kernel?

Why can't the standard gcc be used to compile the rtems bsp in an
archive and linked to the application afterwards?

Regards,

Marco
