16 years agoJake and Kevin,
I appreciate the quick and detailed replies. I understand that FSL and Avalon shouldn't be directly compared, but they were similiar enough such that we were able to create a simple and small hardware translation layer such that a Nios II can talk to FSL peripherals. I am tasked with creating the software to translate from the Xilinx calls to Avalon peripheral access calls. This seems pretty trivial but I will have to do some translation of addresses since they are certainly not the same for the two processors. I think IORD and IOWR will end up being the most straightforward for me. Thanks, -Brad
