Hello everyone, I am Niteesh, a second-year student at Rajalakshmi Engineering College, Thandalam, pursuing Electronics and Communication Engineering. I am really happy to announce that I have been selected for Google Summer of Code 2020 and will be working on the project "Beagle BSP: Add a flattened device tree based initialization".
The Beaglebone BSP in RTEMS supports a variety of board variants like the BB Black, White, Original, XM. The current BSP uses libBSD to provide support for peripherals like USB, ETHERNET. The libBSD has a pin muxing driver which is used by other peripheral drivers. This causes double initialization of few pins, first, during initialization of RTEMS driver and the second time during the initialization of libBSD. This project will fix this by import the pin muxing driver into RTEMS. As part of this process, the project also aims to refactor some of the drivers to parse values from the device tree. This would result in the dynamic initialization of the BSP and will allow for the unification of the BSP. As an end result, we might end up with a single BSP that supports all board variants and the following tickets will be closed. 1) #3784 <https://devel.rtems.org/ticket/3784> 2) #3782 <https://devel.rtems.org/ticket/3782> I would like to thanks the members of RTEMS for providing me this opportunity. Thanks, Niteesh.
