The "rtems on unix" port is part of rtems.  It is freely available
from the rtems site: www.oarcorp.com   The unix support is organized
around a hypothetical cpu named 'unix' (as opposed to 386 or hppa, etc).
The BSP is 'posix'.

Currently hppa, sparc and 386 UNIX hosts are supported.  Supporting a new
UNIX host cpu type is pretty easy; just have to puzzle out your setjmp
buffer format.  Which is even easier if newlib supports your cpu.

wlc> If someone has used it before, could they share the experience?

Here at Division/HP we've used the UNIX port extensively over the past
year or so.  It has worked beautifully for our simulations.  We regularly
simulate 20 or more of our boards working together on a single workstation.

99.9% of our code is exactly the same for the UNIX simulation and the
real hardware.
