ADSP-21060 elfloader IDs

Started by Waldron, Donald M September 21, 2001
I am re-designing the PROM boot code for a Quad-Sharc ADSP-14060 system
(which has 4 ADSP-21060s). I need to perform POST and other functions
before loading code; the boot loader is limited to 256 instructions.

To do this, I have multiple 'boot loaders' and need to assign a unique
multiprocessor ID for the boot loaders, using the elfloader.

How many multiprocessor IDs do I have available? The Linker and Utilities
Manual (p4-23) says the valid elfloader id values are 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5. I
am able to execute the elfloader with up to id=9. Is the documentation
wrong? Does anyone have experience here?

Thank You!
