[microblaze-uclinux] sources for microblaze-related software



Hello!

I've never used or played with Microblaze before, but I've been poking on Linux for many years and I've had it running and written drivers for it on numerous (embedded) architectures.

The Microblaze situation puzzles me and I find it hard to get a grip of it. I want to build my own toolchain, and build my own images of everything from u-boot, uclinux 2.6, busybox and whatever my project may end up wanting. Downloading and using binaries are fine for quick testing and demos, but source is essential for real projects IMHO.

So, where is the latest and greatest source tarballs/patches/cvs repositories for these tools (in their microblaze flavours or perhaps some of them can be built out of their standard tarballs/releases)?

For microblaze uclinux 2.6, is the patches on http://sourceforge.net/projects/microblaze the most recent? If so, what are they diffed against and what toolchain do I need to build? (The patches refer to linux-2.6.13.4 but it isn't clear to me if that is a stock kernel tree or with some other patches applied.)

Most google searches and links (for just about anything microblaze related) end up on John Williams' fine page, but that contains informations that seem to be updated no later than November 2005.

I hugely appreciate the time and efforts people have put into this, and I hope to be able to contribute my little bits once I get up to speed on this.
