rspboot
\- RSP boot sequence microcode.
.SH DESCRIPTION
This small RSP microcode program enforces the
OS synchronization between the host CPU (R4300) and the RSP. These
are mostly software conventions, but they do include setting of
some hardware registers to begin a new task.
.PP
It processes the task header structure, loads the microcode for the task,
and begins the task execution.
.PP
The boot code does not remain in IMEM; it must be re-loaded at
the beginning of each task.
.SH BUGS
None outstanding.
