+README.txt
+^^^^^^^^^^
+
+This is the README file for the NuttX port to the ZiLog ZNEO MCU.
+
+ZDS-II Compiler Versions
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+4.10.2
+ The ZDS-II version 4.10.2 will not compile NuttX. It reports "internal
+ errors" on some of the files. Upgrades to ZDS-II are available for
+ download from the Zilog website: http://www.zilog.com/software/zds2.asp
+
+4.11.0
+ NuttX compiles correctly with the newer 4.11.0 version of the ZDS-II
+ toolchain. However, I have found a few issues:
+
+ - The code will not run without the -reduceopt option. There is,
+ apparently, some optimization related issue. This issue has not
+ been analyzed as of this writing.
+
+ - Not all NuttX logic will not run with the -regvars option. There is
+ at least one failure that has been reported to ZiLOG as incident 81400.
+
+ - The Pascal add-on interpreter includes a large switch statement and
+ exposes another compiler problem. This is reported as incident 81459.
+
+4.11.1
+ As of this writing (30 September 2010), the latest release of ZDS-II for the
+ ZNEO is 4.11.1. It is unknown if this release includes fixes for incidents
+ 81400 and 81459 or not. It is unknown if the code will run without -reduceopt
+ either. (Basically, it compiles with 4.11.1, but is untested with that version).
+
+If you use any version of ZDS-II other than 4.11.1 or if you install ZDS-II
+at any location other than the default location, you will have to modify
+two files: (1) configs/z16f2800100zcog/*/setenv.sh and (2)
+configs/z16f2800100zcog/*/Make.defs. Simply edit these two files, changing
+4.11.1 to whatever.
+
+Issues
+^^^^^^
+
+There are several, important open issues with the ZNEO port (8 as of this writing).
+See the TODO file in the top-level NuttX directory. One of these should be
+mentioned here because it causes a failure to compile Nuttx:
+
+ Description: The file drivers/mmcsd/mmcsd_sdio.c generates an internal compiler
+ error like:
+
+ mmcsd\mmcsd_sdio.c
+ Internal Error(0503) On line 2524 of "MMCSD\MMCSD_SDIO.C"
+ File <c3>, Args(562,46)
+
+ Status: Open. Recommended workaround: remove mmcsd_sdio.c from
+ drivers/mmcsd/Make.defs. There is no SDIO support for the Z16 anyway
+ Priority: Low
+
+This is bug in ZDS-II. It was discovered in version 4.11.0 and still exists
+in version 4.11.1.
+
+Configuration Subdirectories
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+- source/ and include/
+ These directories contain common logic for all z16f2800100zcog
+ configurations.
+
+Variations on the basic z8f162800100zcog configuration are maintained
+in subdirectories. To configure any specific configuration, do the
+following steps:
+
+ cd <nuttx-top-directory>/tools
+ ./configure.sh z16f2800100zcog/<sub-directory>
+ cd <nuttx-top-directory>
+ make
+
+Where <sub-directory> is the specific board configuration that you
+wish to build. The following board-specific configurations are
+available:
+
+- ostest
+ This builds the examples/ostest application for execution from FLASH.
+ See examples/README.txt for information about ostest.
+
+- pashello
+
+ Configures to use examples/pashello for execution from FLASH
+ See examples/README.txt for information about pashello.
+
+Check out any README.txt files in these <sub-directory>s.
