It's another busy day today. I ported our kernel to 2.6.31-rc2, cleaned up drivers, and ported all patches. I can boot to busybox with my 1107 board and ethernet is working fine. So, basically, I have finished porting to the kernel 2.6.31-rc2.
I then working on the new chip support. I grabbed the whole set of the maui code. It basically contains their patches to the kernel and added core code. I enabled the new chip configuration in our build system and then duplicated the directories and files in the kernel. By using their default configuration, I can then build the kernel.
Looks like the progress is quite promising. What's left include:
* use our new board support template and file
* verify the build of initramfs
* verify the kernel configuration, properly split the kernel configuration
* create the new branch and deliver the code
* a possible test on the FPGA with serial port, initramfs
then I'll work on the buildroot toolchain again, to get the cortex-a9 toolchain built on filer and then work on the external eglibc support in buildroot.
