Ticket #650 – Description
v2 v3 3 3 Details:: 4 4 !RouterBoard RB435G is an extensible board that can serve as a single-board router and be a central part of your home network. It features MIPS single-core CPU, 256MB of RAM, micro-SD card slot and 3 ethernet ports. The machine is well documented and can be used as a model hardware for the network usability of HelenOS. Basic support for RB435G is within the reach of a single trimester work. 5 6 HelenOS supports the mips32 architecture, but so far has been ported only to MIPS R4000 and MIPS 4Kc CPUs. The !RouterBoard has a MIPS 24K processor so this project will require some kernel code modifications. 5 7 6 8 What Gains and Benefits will this bring?:: … … 11 13 12 14 Required skills:: 13 A successful applicant will need to have very good skills in programming in the C language and the ability to learn how to drive hardware based on various information sources (official documentation, source code of other operating system projects). 15 A successful applicant will need to have very good skills in programming in the C language and the ability to learn how to drive hardware based on various information sources (official documentation, source code of other operating system projects). Low-level kernel programming experience is a plus. 14 16 15 17 Documentation:: 16 * [[http://routerboard.com/RB435G|RB435G Homepage]] 18 * [http://routerboard.com/RB435G RB435G Homepage] 19 * [http://www.helenos.org/wiki/DeveloperDocs/CPUArch#MIPS MIPS] manuals on HelenOS wiki 20 * [https://imgtec.com/?do-download=4237 MIPS32 24K Processor Core Family Software User’s Manual] 21 * [https://imgtec.com/mips/classic/ MIPS Classic Processor Cores] on Imagination Technologies web 22 * [https://wiki.openwrt.org/toh/mikrotik/rb435 RB354 page] on OpenWRT web 17 23 18 24 Possible mentors::
