Like I've done in my last patch for ethernut3/at91r40008 I'd like to clean-up the eir/sam7se512 combo. I'm not sure, how to do this in detail and would appreciate any advice.
The first thing I want to do is to move the target file from sam7se512.cfg to at91sam7se512.cfg. So far, board/eir.cfg seems the only one referencing that target. However, it may break existing private user scripts. Shall we keep sam7se512.cfg as source [find target/at91sam7se512.cfg] ? Another idea is to follow at91sam7sx.cfg and create a more general file named at91sam7sex.cfg for all 3 members of this family. However, the chip IDs (CPUTAPID) differ: AT91SAM7SE32 0x27280340 AT91SAM7SE256 0x272A0940 AT91SAM7SE512 0x272A0A40 Worse, they come with different RAM sizes and therefore possibly different work area layouts. Shall we specify all these variants (other devices may have others) in each board configuration files? Btw. this is also true (or actually wrong) for target/at91sam7sx.cfg, which specifies 16k work area size. The AT91SAM7S32 has 8k and the AT91SAM7S16 only 4k of RAM. The at91sam7sx is not as general as it claims. I'd prefer to create at91sam7se32.cfg at91sam7se256.cfg at91sam7se512.cfg Possibly they may then include source [find target/at91sam7sex.cfg] Thanks, Harald _______________________________________________ Openocd-development mailing list Openocd-development@lists.berlios.de https://lists.berlios.de/mailman/listinfo/openocd-development
