161 Correcting configure parameters of adv_jtag_bridge on installation script. rfajardo 4464d 04h /minsoc/trunk/utils/
160 Typo in minsoc-install.sh script. Adv_jtag_bridge was not configuring correctly. rfajardo 4464d 05h /minsoc/trunk/utils/
159 Updated constraint file for de2_115 board. (Richard Hasha) rfajardo 4464d 05h /minsoc/trunk/utils/
158 Adding de2_115_board port, thanks to Richard Hasha.

Support to JSP (JTAG Serial Port) working well. Also provided by Richard Hasha.

Different interconnect configurations per board are not straightforward on MinSoC. New added modules or definitions for addresses have to be carried over to other boards. Furthermore, extra modules can be shared among all projects. Thus, it is better to have this centralized:
-Removing interconnect configuration from minsoc_defines.v. There is an interconnect_defines.v file on rtl/verilog. The software counterpart is interconnect.h on sw/drivers.

Including a jsp firmware. It is basically the uart firmware but using JSP instead. Added to all board configure scripts to be compiled on configuration.

prj/srcs extended to include jsp and interconnec_defines.v.

spartan3e_starter_kit_eth lost UART (does not fit) and uses JSP instead now.
rfajardo 4465d 21h /minsoc/trunk/utils/
157 Removed obsolete file; the changes in this version have been merged into
the mainline advanced debug system version 3.0 and higher.
nyawn 4471d 16h /minsoc/trunk/utils/
154 Modified to use the new autotools support in the advanced debug system v3.0. nyawn 4471d 16h /minsoc/trunk/utils/
149 Merging differences of release candidate 1.0 revision 140:148 with trunk. rfajardo 4504d 07h /minsoc/trunk/utils/
142 Updating configure.sh:
1) we don't patch the trunk version.
2) it is better to re-compile the firmwares on reconfiguration. So compiling firmwares went to configure scripts instead.

backend/xxx/configure: compiling firmwares here now.
rfajardo 4510d 06h /minsoc/trunk/utils/
141 Merging with rc-1.0 revision 140. I doubt rc-1.0 will still change much in the last days. rfajardo 4510d 06h /minsoc/trunk/utils/
135 Installation on Ubuntu-11.10 has shown that package texinfo is required to compiled GDB. This package installs the binary makeinfo. rfajardo 4518d 02h /minsoc/trunk/utils/
106 Installation script was checking the ENV variable before setting it. rfajardo 4537d 06h /minsoc/trunk/utils/
103 But the file is called gdb-6.8a.tar.bz2, so tar must be run on that name. rfajardo 4546d 21h /minsoc/trunk/utils/
102 GNU GDB FTP has renamed gdb-6.8 package to gdb-6.8a package. Uncompressed it remains gdb-6.8, so no other changes to script are necessary. rfajardo 4546d 22h /minsoc/trunk/utils/
83 minsoc-install.sh: bzip2 program was being used, but its existance on target system was not being verified. It is now. rfajardo 4599d 07h /minsoc/trunk/utils/
82 minsoc-install.sh: problems with copying the GNU Toolchain from download to tools. We uncompress the GNU Toolchain now once again to tools during the installation part. rfajardo 4602d 07h /minsoc/trunk/utils/
81 Installation script complete, nice text feedback, output logs and better execution order. rfajardo 4602d 18h /minsoc/trunk/utils/
79 minsoc-install.sh: rpath corrected.
required-cygwin-tools: updated
rfajardo 4605d 23h /minsoc/trunk/utils/
78 minsoc-install.sh: Advanced JTAG bridge compilation needs to know where the dynamic libraries are on runtime. Patching (sed) the Makefile to compile it with the rpath to the libraries (libusb/libftdi). rfajardo 4605d 23h /minsoc/trunk/utils/
77 New tool requirements for installing Icarus Verilog. rfajardo 4605d 23h /minsoc/trunk/utils/
76 Including a script allowing the installation of MinSoC and all its required tools.

It should be working for all Linuxes and Cygwin.
rfajardo 4605d 23h /minsoc/trunk/utils/
64 firmware makefiles:
-every firmware makefile has now complete dependency. This also includes dependency on files under minsoc/backend (target specific files). That means, that if some target specific header changes, the support library dependent on it will be compiled. That will always happen, even if you compile the uart firmware. In other words, if you want to use uart firmware, you can always simply compile uart by issuing make all. If anything has changed, backend files, support library, drivers, it will update everything for you.
-TODO: dependency can be automatic created by using make together with gcc. Use it instead of declaring all dependencies manually.

Makefile system for synthesis:
-the dependency for every implementation step has been checked and is working fine.
-Makefile plus support files have been moved to minsoc/syn/src
-make usage is still under syn through files generated by backend bashscripts
Backend:
-files under backend are target specific files used for the system to work
-firmware compilation
-system simulation
-system implementation
-This directory is populated by visiting one of its subdirectories and typing ./configure

backend/spartan3a_dsp_kit:
-working on FPGA

backend/spartan3e_starter_kit:
-has to be tested

backend/ml509:
-missing files have to be copied and adapted, configure script has to be copied and adapted

backend/std:
-include files necessary for firmware compilation and system configuration
-it does not include files for synthesis and is not synthesizable

47 Firmware updated to work with gcc-4.5. It is actually working just fine and gcc-4.5 assembly code seems a lot cleaner.

I noticed that by increasing the free stack space for the interrupt handler by 130 made the resulting firmware not work. I assume it is because 130 is not aligned 130%4 = 2 and the stack simply does not work then. Instead I'm freeing the previous 116 plus 128 (for 32 registers as mentioned by Jeremy) and it works.
rfajardo 4756d 02h /minsoc/trunk/utils/
46 Including an explanation of what has to be updated on gpio to port it smoothly to minsoc. rfajardo 4756d 07h /minsoc/trunk/utils/
45 A more stable version ConX. 4756d 22h /minsoc/trunk/utils/
44 Fixing some bugs. But it still works only in Debian/Ubuntu ConX. 4756d 23h /minsoc/trunk/utils/
43 Making some changes to MinSOC install script ConX. 4757d 20h /minsoc/trunk/utils/
41 Including setup scripts to install all required tools to work with minsoc and to download all required sources. Thanks for the contribution of Xanthopoulos Constantinos. rfajardo 4762d 03h /minsoc/trunk/utils/
40 Commiting a contributions directory, which has raw contributions of users. These contributions still have to be adapted to the system in order to work well. However, some users are certainly able to work with these versions.

FAQ: -added new idea to circumvent onboard DLC9 cable problem for adv_jtag_bridge
INSTALL: -gives a hint on how to install the system for Windows
HOWTO: -explains what a ucf file is and how to create it

backend: now we have the first contribution of a ucf file for the ML509 board (thanks to Matthew Hick)

Documentation: THESIS.txt explains to users, willing to tweak/understand the inner behavior of the OR1200 implementation of OpenRISC, what to read in order to get this information.
rfajardo 4768d 01h /minsoc/trunk/utils/
36 utils: -adding a 32 to 8 bit Wishbone bridge to connect 8 bit modules to the MinSoC interconnect.
-adding a Linux driver for parallel cables for the adv_jtag_bridge. It circumvents the necessity of privilege to run adv_jtag_bridge with cables xpc3 and xess.

sw/support: support library has been made completely standalone. That means, it is now independent from uClib and/or newlib. Thanks to Wojciech A. Koszek for his contribution on this.

sw/drivers: a driver library has been included, which supply drivers for the OpenRISC timer; and for UART, Ethernet, I2C, and CAN modules from OpenCores.

sw/uart and sw/eth: they don't provide code to control the UART and Ethernet controllers anymore. They use the drivers library instead.

Documentation:
-FAQ extended:
-table of contents
-explanation of how to use the 32 to 8 bit Wishbone bridge
-how to make adv_jtag_bridge work without privilege requirement for xess or xpc3
-explanation of locking problem of xpc_usb cable
-explanation of what to do if the cable is built on-board
-INSTALL:
-patching of gdb only required if version is 6.8, explanation on FAQ now.
-HOWTO:
-instruct to compile drivers library
-remove line numbers information on what to edit, better leave it to be found only by the informed context.
-adv_jtag_bridge execution now without 'sudo'. Note included that 'sudo' is required for Linux and xess or xpc3. Reference to FAQ to avoid this requirement.
