Subject: [PATCH] AVR32 architecture support
This patch adds common infrastructure code for the Atmel AVR32
architecture.
AVR32 is a new high-performance 32-bit RISC microprocessor core,
designed for cost-sensitive embedded applications, with particular
emphasis on low power consumption and high code density. The AVR32
architecture is not binary compatible with earlier 8-bit AVR
architectures.
The AVR32 architecture, including the instruction set, is described
by the AVR32 Architecture Manual, available from
http://www.atmel.com/dyn/resources/prod_documents/doc32000.pdf
A GNU toolchain with support for AVR32 is included with the ATSTK1000
BSP, which can be downloaded as an ISO image from
http://www.atmel.com/dyn/products/tools_card.asp?tool_id=3918
Alternatively, you can build it yourself by following the
Getting Started guide at avr32linux.org, which also provides links
to the necessary sources and patches you need to download:
http://avr32linux.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/GettingStarted
The AVR32 ports of u-boot, the Linux kernel, the GNU toolchain and
other associated software are actively supported by Atmel Corporation.
