Regarding libpowerpc content query

[vasanthsri]

Hi Experts,

We are currently working on P4040 processor and while investigating one problem (related to mul instructions) came across this custom library (libpowerpc) and have below query.

Could someone help me on explaining the content (what are the custom changes) and also the source tar ball (if possible).

Thanks.

I recently checked the freescale "Freescale Linux SDK v1.6" document and under section 9.4 can see one libpowerpc library is explained.

http://cache.freescale.com/files/soft_dev_tools/doc/support_info/QorIQ-SDK-1.6-IC-RevB.pdf

Could someone help on retrieving the library (lib_e500mc.so) or source from below mentioned path ?

<sb_path>/build_p4080ds_release/work/ppce500mc-linux/libpowerpc-1.1.0-r0/libpowerpc-1.1.0

Thanks in Advance.

Any luck ? Could someone kindly let me know about the possibility of getting this (above requested) source file from latest SDK ??

Hello Vasanth Sri,

In SDK 1.6, this package should be named as "libppc", please run the command "bitbake libppc -c patch -f", you will get the source code in build_p4080ds_release/tmp/work/ppce500mc-fsl-linux/libppc/git-r0/git/.

Have a great day,
Yiping

Thanks for the prompt Yiping.

Is it possible to share this library content alone as an attachment for ppce500mc platform .? Thx.

Could someone help on providing the direct "libppc" source content as an attachment ?

Thanks .

An help.? Due to the limited bandwidth I am not able to do the extraction and build. Could someone help to retrieve the copy of this library content alone if possible ?

Thanks.

Hello Vasanth Sri,

I sent the source tar ball to you, it's about 9.5 M, please check whether you could receive it.

Thanks,
