[microblaze-uclinux] tcp/ip is a go!

[John Williams <jwilliams@itee.uq.edu.au>]

Hi everyone,

I'm happy to report that tcp/ip networking on microblaze uclinux (with 
the Xilinx MAC core) is up and running!

Tested applcations/protocols so far are just telnet and tftp.  I'll look 
into configuring boa or some other webserver soon, just to test it out.

I've just completed my first ever network kernel upgrade, meaning that i 
pulled a new kernel image over the network and dumped it into the flash, 
all from within a uclinux shell session.  I then rebooted into the new 
image.  This will make the development cycle a lot easier, as it is no 
longer necessary to drop back to xmd to upload images and so on.

My next objective is NFS support, so that workstation directories can be 
mounted directly on the microblaze, speeding things even more.

As always, the CVS contains the up-to-date source code for the driver 
and so on.

Regards,

John
