[partial-reconfig] Reg uclinux/microblaze and partial reconf.

["Lakshmi Narasimhan. S" <sulakshm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello Team,
After a couple of weeks of partial reconfiguration with small projects
and custom bus macros, I am now trying to do reconfiguration
under the control of a microprocessor. Thanks to this group
mainly for my progress!!

I have a xilinx ml310 board.
I already have a linux(montavista) running on PPC processor.
The problem with this was it takes a lot of fpga area and there
is nothing left. Moreover I got to use 2 PPC processors even though
I need only one. Does anyone know how to cut off the second processor
and still create a working design with JTAG?
If the above is possible, then it leaves me easy ways to do the rest.

Else the second choice would be to go for microblaze running uclinux.
Now I havent run uclinux successfully yet and am just starting.
Has anyone got a reference design with ml310 board running uclinux?
I wasnt able to find anything with the microblaze-uclinux webpage
for this board.


Thirdly, has anyone in this group had any success with reconfiguration
under the control of a microprocessor? Because I am worried
a bit as to whether there would be sufficient space after routing left
for the reconfiguration to happen. Any remarks on this regard?
For this  I was planning to use OPB-HWICAP provided by xilinx.

Thanks
LN
