These sources (patches) are similar to samsung sources which are
available in uClinux-dist. So, I will look into the Ithamar Adema
patches and uClinux-dist samsung machine directory sources. Please
suggest me.

My final question, All these samsung machines (s3c24a0, s3c3410,
s3c44b0x and s5c7375) are ARM7TDMI core based MCUs. My MCU (Samsung
s3c2510A) is a ARM9TDMI core based. So, is this porting will help?

The CPU support is really separate from the platform, and
ARM9TDMI/ARM940T is supported by the platform-independent code.

In the s3c2510-specific portion, you should need very little
code that has dependencies on the specific ARM code besides
for the Kconfig 'select CPU_ARM940T' statement.

I am extreamly sorry, If I asked silly questions here.

No problem at all, these things are not well documented, so it's
good if at least people can refer to this conversation in the
email archives.
