Any chance to switch to a more recent version of Linux based on the arch/powerpc tree? This would allow for a more generic RTnet driver. As you might know, arch/ppc is almost dead and will be removed from the kernel later this year. > xenomai 2.3.4 > rtnet 0.9.8 > > I want to know which driver should I port.

You should port the driver Linux uses for your ethernet interface. The MPC 85xx has Gianfar and, if a CPM is present, also FCC ethernet interfaces, IIRC. > I see also three drivers (rt_mpc82xx_fcc_enet.c, rt_mpc8xx_enet.c, > rt_mpc8xx_fec.c) in drivers' directory of RTnet tree.

These driver are for Linux 2.4 and it does make little sense to use them. > Can you give me some information about my task? is it hard or easy to port > this driver? It's not that hard and there is also a README on driver porting: http://www.rts.uni-hannover.de/rtnet/lxr/source/Documentation/README.drvporting Wolfgang. -- Dr. Wolfgang Grandegger, Phone: (+49)-8142-6698930, Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _____________________________________________________________________ DENX Software Engineering GmbH, CEO: Wolfgang Denk & Detlev Zundel HRB 165235 Munich, Office: Kirchenstr.5, D-82194 Groebenzell, Germany ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.
