Please read this entire page before attempting to build and run the driver. If you use this driver in a product, please let me know. And if you can contribute any additional features or bug fixes that would be great!
This is a port of the mpc860sar driver from version mpc860sar-1.1. There are newer versions of that project, so some nice person could take a look and see if the changes make sense here also.
| Processor | Board Name | PHY device/s | Driver Version/s | Notes | Tested With |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Motorola MPC8260 | Motorola MPC8260ADS | 1 PMC-Sierra PM5350 | 1.0.0 - 1.0.1 | For the phy device, the suni.c driver from the 2.4.18 linux kernel has been modified to support the PMC-Sierra PM5350 instead of the 5346. The memory map of the 2 devices is slightly different. You might want to download my modified suni.c and suni.h files from the 2.4.18 kernel if your board also has the PM5350. | FORE PCA200 ATM NIC card and the Classical IP Over ATM support from the linux-atm project |
| Motorola MPC82XX | Motorola PQ2FADS-ZU | 1 PMC-Sierra PM5384 | 1.01 | Driver for PM5384 needs to be written. | Works using internal loopback on the FCC. |
If anyone gets it working on a new platform, please let me know so I can update the table!
Also be sure that the define CFG_BCSR is set appropriately for your board! This is the base address of some board-specific registers.
To download the source code, see the atm8260 sourceforge home page.
Special thanks to the following people for their contributions:
This web page is dedicated to embedded linux on the Motorola MPC8260 processor. This processor combines a PowerPC 603e core with an independent CPM engine with integrated communication ports supporting a variety of protocols.
The intention is not to be comprehensive but selective in identifying software and hardware resources for embedded linux. In general, most of the software below is freely available on the internet.
