Opensource documents for Loongson CPUs...

Primary LanguageTeX

Purpose

=======

This project is an effort to create a complete set of community-based documentations for the series of Loongson MIPS chips. See MIPS run, and see Loongson run!

The priority of the project for now is to create a relative complete document (two volumes) for the Loongson 3B1500 processor in Chinese first, then in English.

Download

========

Below is a list of documents prepared by the loongson-doc project.

Tools

=====

The pandoc markdown is picked as the main tool due to its simplicity and flexibility, while LaTeX is still employed to handle hard cases: mostly complex tables. In the end, pandoc would convert the whole document to the pdf format.

Required packages

=================

Packages required to compile the loongson-doc project are (under Debian)

  • pandoc
  • texlive-lang-cjk
  • texlive-fonts-recommended
  • texlive-science

The current document uses Adobe fonts for typesetting Chinese: these fonts can be downloaded from the adobe acroread website. If you would prefer a complete open-source solution (such as Wenquanyi fonts), please check out the template file and comment/uncomment a few lines in the font setting section. Hopefully they are straightforward.
