Getting started with SPEAr^® Linux support package (LSP 3.2.5)
Introduction
This manual provides application developers with a first introduction to the Linux-based
reference software installed in the Flash memory of the SPEAr evaluation boards. It is not
intended to be a tutorial on Linux operating system or embedded software design. It only
covers topics that are specific to the implementation on SPEAr embedded MPUs and
boards.
The Linux Support Package (LSP) is a set of software provided free-of-charge by
STMicroelectronics for the SPEAr family of embedded microprocessor units (eMPUs).
The LSP has the following objectives:
● Demonstrating capabilities of SPEAr devices through a widespread high-level
operating system (Linux). The LSP is only targeting STMicro evaluation boards.
● Providing a starting point for customers willing to accelerate a Linux porting to their
proprietary SPEAr-based hardware platforms and products.
