Re: MontaVista 2.6 Kernel support for Xilinx ML40x

Wade,

are you sure that you did not build your hardware with evaluation cores 
of the licenses? If you are using the evaluation licenses the hardware 
(FPGA design) will stop working after a certain amount of time and you 
will see a lock-up.

  In my opinion it is currently unstable, but that is my opinion.  
I've not been able to keep it powered up for 24 hours without it 
locking up on the RS232 serial terminal.  Also, running updatedb over 
nfs causes it to abort with a kernel panic, although that might be an 
interraction with the nfs server.  (Although even if the nfs server 
dies (which it did not), I don't expect a kernel panic).

   I have had it run over 6 hours without issue, so I expect subtle 
memory leaks, not serious problems.

    Frank,

    due to my understanding of the GPL (and i have already invested
    some time
    in understanding the various flavours of open source licences),
    you should
    contact Montavista, and ask them for the sources.

    This board adaption is derivative work of the GPL Kernel, so the
    result of
    this work also falls under the GPL, and has to be made freely
    available
    under the terms of the GPL.

    Subject: MontaVista 2.6 Kernel support for Xilinx ML40x


    I noticed that MontaVista now has their Pro 4.0 version (2.6 Kernel)
    available for the Xilinx ML40x series of boards.  I would assume that
    means driver support for at least most of the hardware on the boards.
    Is this code that should be freely available?  How would one get a
    copy
    of these drivers?  I am interested in drivers for the ML403.

    Thanks,
    Frank
