ixp400_osal

This library is a version of the Intel ixp-osal version 2.1.1 library. It is badly documented, badly written code, very hard to understand and not very efficient. It is one of the more confusing project layouts and quite complicated to navigate, if you learn how to use cscope properly your life will be made much easier. This is a glue library and we provide a L4/libsos interface layer so we know how some of the code works in this library.

ixOsalOemInit

uint32_t ixOsalOemInit(void)

ixOsalOemInit initalises the IXP420 part of the hardware and its access layer software. You must call this function before you attempt to make any calls on the network layer.

ixOsalOSServicesFinaliseInit

void ixOsalOSServicesFinaliseInit(void)

ixOsalOSServicesFinaliseInit finishes the initalisation of the IXP420 part of the hardware and its access layer software. You must call this function after you have finished initialising the lwip layer.
