+Linux on the CRIS architecture
+==============================
+
+This is a port of Linux to Axis Communications ETRAX 100LX,
+ETRAX FS and ARTPEC-3 embedded network CPUs.
+
+For more information about CRIS and ETRAX please see further below.
+
+In order to compile this you need a version of gcc with support for the
+ETRAX chip family. Please see this link for more information on how to
+download the compiler and other tools useful when building and booting
+software for the ETRAX platform:
+
+http://developer.axis.com/wiki/doku.php?id=axis:install-howto-2_20
+
+What is CRIS ?
+--------------
+
+CRIS is an acronym for 'Code Reduced Instruction Set'. It is the CPU
+architecture in Axis Communication AB's range of embedded network CPU's,
+called ETRAX.
+
+The ETRAX 100LX chip
+--------------------
+
+For reference, please see the following link:
+
+http://www.axis.com/products/dev_etrax_100lx/index.htm
+
+The ETRAX 100LX is a 100 MIPS processor with 8kB cache, MMU, and a very broad
+range of built-in interfaces, all with modern scatter/gather DMA.
+
+Memory interfaces:
+
+ * SRAM
+ * NOR-flash/ROM
+ * EDO or page-mode DRAM
+ * SDRAM
+
+I/O interfaces:
+
+ * one 10/100 Mbit/s ethernet controller
+ * four serial-ports (up to 6 Mbit/s)
+ * two synchronous serial-ports for multimedia codec's etc.
+ * USB host controller and USB slave
+ * ATA
+ * SCSI
+ * two parallel-ports
+ * two generic 8-bit ports
+
+ (not all interfaces are available at the same time due to chip pin
+ multiplexing)
+
+ETRAX 100LX is CRISv10 architecture.
+
+
+The ETRAX FS and ARTPEC-3 chips
+-------------------------------
+
+The ETRAX FS is a 200MHz 32-bit RISC processor with on-chip 16kB
+I-cache and 16kB D-cache and with a wide range of device interfaces
+including multiple high speed serial ports and an integrated USB 1.1 PHY.
+
+The ARTPEC-3 is a variant of the ETRAX FS with additional IO-units
+used by the Axis Communications network cameras.
+
+See below link for more information:
+
+http://www.axis.com/products/dev_etrax_fs/index.htm
+
+ETRAX FS and ARTPEC-3 are both CRISv32 architectures.
+
+Bootlog
+-------
+
+Just as an example, this is the debug-output from a boot of Linux 2.4 on
+a board with ETRAX 100LX. The displayed BogoMIPS value is 5 times too small :)
+At the end you see some user-mode programs booting like telnet and ftp daemons.
+
+Linux version 2.4.1 (bjornw@godzilla.axis.se) (gcc version 2.96 20000427 (experimental)) #207 Wed Feb 21 15:48:15 CET 2001
