1 Notes for the Blackfin architecture port of Das U-Boot
8 Blackfin Processors embody a new breed of 16/32-bit embedded processor, ideally
9 suited for products where a convergence of capabilities are necessary -
10 multi-format audio, video, voice and image processing; multi-mode baseband and
11 packet processing; control processing; and real-time security. The Blackfin's
12 unique combination of software flexibility and scalability has gained it
13 widespread adoption in convergent applications.
16 The Blackfin processor is wholly developed by Analog Devices Inc.
22 All open source code for the Blackfin processors are being handled via our
23 collaborative website:
24 http://blackfin.uclinux.org/
26 In particular, bug reports, feature requests, help etc... for Das U-Boot are
27 handled in the Das U-Boot sub project:
28 http://blackfin.uclinux.org/gf/project/u-boot
30 This website is backed both by an open source community as well as a dedicated
31 team from Analog Devices Inc.
37 To compile the Blackfin aspects, you'll need the GNU toolchain configured for
38 the Blackfin processor. You can obtain such a cross-compiler here:
