The BSPs are kept in the $RTEMS_ROOT/c/src/lib/libbsp directory. They
are filed under the processor family (m68k, powerpc, etc.). A given BSP
consists in the following directories:
@itemize @bullet
@item @b{clock} -
support for the realtime clock, which provides a regular
time basis to the kernel,
@item @b{console} -
rather the serial driver than only a console driver, it
deals with the board UARTs (i.e. serial devices),
@item @b{include} -
the include files,
@item @b{startup} -
the board initialization code,
@item @b{timer} -
support of timer devices,
@item @b{shmsupp} -
support of shared memory in a multiprocessor system,
@item @b{network} -
the Ethernet driver.
@item @b{rtc} -
the real-time clock driver.
@item @b{wrapup} - XXX

Another important element are the makefiles, which have to be provided by
the user.
@b{NOTE:} This manual refers to the gen68340 BSP for numerous concrete
examples. You should have a copy of the gen68340 BSP available while
reading this piece of documentation. This BSP is located in the
following directory:
@example
$RTEMS_ROOT/c/src/lib/libbsp/m68k/gen68340

Later in this document, the $BSP340_ROOT label will be used
to refer to this directory.
