Message-ID: <1126528922.3338.45.camel@kaushal> (raw)

hello list,
           Iam unable to find the exact differences between the terms:
    1.architecture
    2.Platform
    3.Variant 
    4.Core

These terms,associated with hardware,must be having a set of features
specific to each.The terms coined due to eCos code base
architecture.When I tried to compare it with Linux I don't find
reflection in the src code for the last three terms(platform variant and
core).eCos arranges the HAL packages based on the above mentioned
criteria.In Linux Only the arch directory had various sub
directories.Under which category do these 'sub-directory names ' fall?I
googled a lot but found vague/contradicting/redundant(definition has the
term in it) results.Thanks in advance.

cheers-
kaushal.
