1.1 About This Document
This document describes, in general terms, the elements that make up a board
support package (BSP), the requirements for a VxWorks BSP, and the general
behavior of a BSP during the boot process. This guide outlines the steps needed to
port an existing BSP to a new hardware platform or to write a new VxWorks BSP
for custom hardware using a reference BSP or template BSP as a starting point. It
also provides hints and tips for debugging a BSP and solving common BSP
development problems.
The primary audience for this document is developers writing a custom BSP for a
specific application’s platform, using an existing BSP as a starting point for
reference. In most cases, the document assumes that the developer has a reference
BSP similar to the required new BSP. Although this document is also useful for
developers writing a new BSP without a reference BSP, the document and the
reference BSP are intended for use together. If you are writing a completely new
