Re: If i need a supportet microcontroller with a new ethernet PHY...


Atmel AT91SAM7X connected to a Micrel KSZ8041... Now i write a plattform variant named CYGPKG_HAL_ARM_AT91SAM7X_KSZ8041, but i'm not sure if this is the ecos-way to do it...

defined as external or something like this...

The problem is, that every PHY has other initalisation requirements. And
furthermore its a question of the concrete hardware what the CPU has to
do to bring it to work. So the hal_plf_eth_init depens on the PHY, the
ethernet and microcontroller and the concret circuit...

What is the best way to use a special hal_plf_eth_init()?

What's the platform/target?
