SPEAr ARM Linux Overview | ||
========================== | ||
|
||
Introduction | ||
------------ | ||
|
||
SPEAr (Structured Processor Enhanced Architecture). | ||
weblink : http://www.st.com/spear | ||
|
||
The ST Microelectronics SPEAr range of ARM9/CortexA9 System-on-Chip CPUs are | ||
supported by the 'spear' platform of ARM Linux. Currently SPEAr300, | ||
SPEAr310, SPEAr320 and SPEAr600 SOCs are supported. Support for the SPEAr13XX | ||
series is in progress. | ||
|
||
Hierarchy in SPEAr is as follows: | ||
|
||
SPEAr (Platform) | ||
- SPEAr3XX (3XX SOC series, based on ARM9) | ||
- SPEAr300 (SOC) | ||
- SPEAr300_EVB (Evaluation Board) | ||
- SPEAr310 (SOC) | ||
- SPEAr310_EVB (Evaluation Board) | ||
- SPEAr320 (SOC) | ||
- SPEAr320_EVB (Evaluation Board) | ||
- SPEAr6XX (6XX SOC series, based on ARM9) | ||
- SPEAr600 (SOC) | ||
- SPEAr600_EVB (Evaluation Board) | ||
- SPEAr13XX (13XX SOC series, based on ARM CORTEXA9) | ||
- SPEAr1300 (SOC) | ||
|
||
Configuration | ||
------------- | ||
|
||
A generic configuration is provided for each machine, and can be used as the | ||
default by | ||
make spear600_defconfig | ||
make spear300_defconfig | ||
make spear310_defconfig | ||
make spear320_defconfig | ||
|
||
Layout | ||
------ | ||
|
||
The common files for multiple machine families (SPEAr3XX, SPEAr6XX and | ||
SPEAr13XX) are located in the platform code contained in arch/arm/plat-spear | ||
with headers in plat/. | ||
|
||
Each machine series have a directory with name arch/arm/mach-spear followed by | ||
series name. Like mach-spear3xx, mach-spear6xx and mach-spear13xx. | ||
|
||
Common file for machines of spear3xx family is mach-spear3xx/spear3xx.c and for | ||
spear6xx is mach-spear6xx/spear6xx.c. mach-spear* also contain soc/machine | ||
specific files, like spear300.c, spear310.c, spear320.c and spear600.c. | ||
mach-spear* also contains board specific files for each machine type. | ||
