[okl4-developer] porting OKL4 to an amr1176jzf-s based board

[Amrit Acharya]

Hello,

I was recently involved in porting okl4 to an arm1176 based chip(some few
weeks back). The process is not too involved and as Gavi mentioned should
take a few weeks if one is not familiar with okl4.

Link <http://www.ok-labs.com/blog/entry/video-porting-okl4-to-a-new-soc/>should
be of some help.

In addition to what the above mail suggests, some tweaks will be required in
your arm1176jz system configurations (present in your arch/arm/pistachio/cpu
sub-directory).

I have a few questions of a similar topic :

1) is there an emulator available for 1176,

2) what is a good way to test the OKL4 port to new hardware and what test
programs beyond hello world are available.

3) How much work is involved in trying to paravirtualise an OS, lets say
android


Regards,

Amrit
