the first port of uClinux/ARM for 2.6 kernel (armnommu architecture)

[Hyok S. Choi]

Greetings,

 I'm reporting of the first port of new architecture(armnommu) for 2.6
kernel is done.

 I planning the patch against recent kernel version will be announced in
this month, after some test and addition of 1~2 more chips. The current
port include support of only one (Samsung S5C7375 SoC) for test.

 As you know, the official 2.6 linux kernel merged uClinux, but the
ARM(w/o mmu) was not included.

 You'll find more detail on http://www.ucdot.org , soon. Any comment is
welcomed.

PS: I worked on toolchain for linux kernel compile, too. it works for
now, of course.^^  However, there is some toolchain trouble yet for user
program compile, and think there will, too. Is there anyone who're
interested on that work?

How common are arms without mmu?

There is quite a few:

   Conexant CX82100, P52
   Triscend A7V, A7S
   Net+ARM 15, 40, 50
   TI DSC21, 5471
   Samsung S3C3410, S3C4530, S3C4510
   Atmel AT91 R40807

I am sure there is more...
