For more information about CRIS and ETRAX please see further below. In order to compile this you need a version of gcc with support for the ETRAX chip family. Please see this link for more information on how to download the compiler and other tools useful when building and booting software for the ETRAX platform: http://developer.axis.com/doc/software/devboard_lx/install-howto.html <more specific information should come in this document later> What is CRIS ? -------------- CRIS is an acronym for 'Code Reduced Instruction Set'. It is the CPU architecture in Axis Communication AB's range of embedded network CPU's, called ETRAX. The latest CPU is called ETRAX 100LX, where LX stands for 'Linux' because the chip was designed to be a good host for the Linux operating system. The ETRAX 100LX chip -------------------- For reference, plase see the press-release: http://www.axis.com/news/us/001101_etrax.htm The ETRAX 100LX is a 100 MIPS processor with 8kB cache, MMU, and a very broad range of built-in interfaces, all with modern scatter/gather DMA. Memory interfaces: * SRAM * NOR-flash/ROM * EDO or page-mode DRAM * SDRAM I/O interfaces: * one 10/100 Mbit/s ethernet controller * four serial-ports (up to 6 Mbit/s) * two synchronous serial-ports for multimedia codec's etc. * USB host controller and USB slave * ATA * SCSI * two parallel-ports * two generic 8-bit ports (not all interfaces are available at the same time due to chip pin multiplexing) The previous version of the ETRAX, the ETRAX 100, sits in almost all of Axis shipping thin-servers like the Axis 2100 web camera or the ETRAX 100 developer-board. It lacks an MMU so the Linux we run on that is a version of uClinux (Linux 2.0 without MM-support) ported to the CRIS architecture. The new Linux 2.4 port has full MM and needs a CPU with an MMU, so it will not run on the ETRAX 100. A version of the Axis developer-board with ETRAX 100LX (running Linux 2.4) is now available. For more information please see developer.axis.com. Bootlog ------- Just as an example, this is the debug-output from a boot of Linux 2.4 on a board with ETRAX 100LX. The displayed BogoMIPS value is 5 times too small :) At the end you see some user-mode programs booting like telnet and ftp daemons.
