Overview<br />

■<br />

New Drivers Many new END network drivers have been added to the driver<br />

product in order to provide as many <strong>BSP</strong>s as possible with at least one available<br />

END driver.<br />

■<br />

Integrated Simulators Tornado 2.x includes an integrated simulator with the base<br />

product. This allows developers to begin application development before the<br />

hardware environment is ready.<br />

■<br />

Integrated WindView The Tornado 2.x product contains an integrated WindView<br />

tool for examining run-time behavior. Refer to the WindView User’s <strong>Guide</strong> for<br />

information on how to use all the features of WindView.<br />

■<br />

VTS Test Updates The Validation Test Suite has received only minor updates that<br />

allow it to work correctly with the new virtual I/O features of the target shell.<br />

■<br />

SCSI Test Suites The SCSI performance test suites, which were omitted from the<br />

previous release of the porting kit, are now included on the CD-ROM.<br />

■<br />

ROM_WARM_ADRS This new macro has been introduced into the template <strong>BSP</strong>s<br />

and some existing <strong>BSP</strong>s. It represents the warm entry point into the boot ROM<br />

code, and is needed to remove the artificial computation of the entry point based<br />

on CPU family. Normally, ROM_WARM_ADRS is based on an offset from<br />

ROM_TEXT_ADRS, for example:<br />

#define ROM_WARM_ADRS (ROM_TEXT_ADRS + 8)<br />

■<br />

New SIO IOCTLs New SIO IOCTL codes have been created to support modem<br />

control lines. The IOCTLs SIO_OPEN and SIO_HUP notify the driver when the<br />

device is opened and closed. The new IOCTLs SIO_HW_OPTS_SET and<br />

SIO_HW_OPTS_GET allow the user to manage character length, parity, stop bits,<br />

and modem control lines. The options bit CLOCAL disables modem control lines<br />

from being used in the driver. For backward compatibility, the CLOCAL option is<br />

selected by default in Wind River-supplied <strong>BSP</strong>s.<br />

■<br />

Target.txt File Removed. The text version of the target.nr file (generated for<br />

Windows host users) has been eliminated. Both UNIX and Windows hosts now use<br />

a browser for reading documentation in HTML format. The host utility refgen<br />

takes nroff input and generates HTML output.<br />
