Yes, MMU setup is trivial for small embedded systems. I would imagine that making eCos cache and MMU aware isn't though. I take it Cygnus is working on this? By "soon" do you mean days, weeks, months? (We're drooling here!) I'm expecting the big thrill of having cache and MMU support will be switching off the guard bit for code space and getting the CPU out of serial mode. Without speculative execution the 860 dawdles. -- Fred Fierling Tel: +1 604 444-1717 Microplex Systems Ltd.
