Yes, except that microblazes systems run in non-virtex FPGAs...
It may be that XILINX_EDK is not the right thing either, but it
seemed like the easiest way to have a superset of powerpc and microblaze
systems
What I'm trying to do is (in concert with Grant's recent configuration
changes)
having an easy way for a new board configuration to select the Kconfig
options for
all of the Xilinx drivers. Namely:
config XILINX_ML300
bool "Xilinx-ML300"
select XILINX_VIRTEX_II_PRO
select EMBEDDEDBOOT
help
This option enables support for the Xilinx ML300 evaluation
board.
config XILINX_VIRTEX_II_PRO
bool
select XILINX_VIRTEX
config XILINX_EDK
bool
depends on XILINX_VIRTEX || XILINX_MICROBLAZE
default y
config XILINX_GPIO
tristate "Xilinx OPB GPIO Support"
depends on XILINX_EDK
help
This option enables support for Xilinx GPIO.
It seems like I'm using XILINX_EDK to mean something different than you
are.
Perhaps it sould be instead:
config XILINX_DRIVERS
bool
depends on XILINX_VIRTEX || XILINX_MICROBLAZE
default y
config XILINX_GPIO_EDK
tristate "Xilinx EDK-based OPB GPIO Support"
depends on XILINX_DRIVERS
select XILINX_EDK
help
This option enables support for Xilinx GPIO using EDK OS
independent driver.
config XILINX_GPIO
tristate "Xilinx OPB GPIO Support"
depends on XILINX_DRIVERS
help
This option enables support for Xilinx GPIO.
Would this work for you?
