I have a fundamental question:

If I have to port LINUX on to new processor. How will I get address
mapping of different devices. Some of them are available in the manual.
Ex: NVram starting address is not available.
Iam porting on mips3k.

It may sound very dumb, but Iam stuck there.

Thanks

I would recommend looking at the list at linux-mips@oss.sgi.com.  I am
fairly sure there is an R3k port already being worked on.  I assume the
mips3k processor you refer to is the R3k (which is very similar to the
R2k)?

In this case you have to contact the hardware vendor for specifications,
but at least in my experience, not many vendors are willing to part with
this information

Related question: does there exist any kind of definition of the abstract interface between the architecture-independent and architecture-dependent parts of the kernel? Or am I being naive?

Hello,

I hope this letter finds you in good health. I am writing this 
letter to ask for assistance towards my tuition fees. 
Unfortunately I have lost my job thorough redundancy, the income 
from my job was needed to sustain my studies and pay my tuition 
fees. I did not take out a student loan as I did not want to get 
myself into debt, as it is too late to apply I was hoping you 
would be able to provide some sort of assistance towards my 
studies. I have contacted all my immediate family members and 
friends and all the relevant government bodies for grant but have 
been unsuccessful so far.

I am determined to finish my studies and would be grateful for 
any assistance you can provide.You can reach me via 
richard@free2312.com

Please Help

Thank You,

Richard
