A Nios® V processor BSP project is a specialized library containing system-specific support code. A BSP:
  • Provides a software runtime environment customized for one processor in a hardware system.
  • Isolates your application from system-specific details such as the memory map, available devices, and processor configuration .
  • Includes header files (for example, system.h), and a linker script (linker.x). Use the BSP files when creating an application.
