RE: [microblaze-uclinux] sources for microblaze-related software

Don't forget that Microblaze is proprietary Xilinx core so I won't be
surprised they don't open up their tools' source code at all... Let me
know if you'll find something.

Subject: [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.
