A system emulator (RTL) has been used to validate the cores. The emulated system runs at several Khz (700KHz) and is real slow. Booting linux takes more that 40 minutes. We have a bridge for the ethernet interface to talk to outside network, and it does not terminate TCP connections. If a process running on such a system tries to talk a process that is running on a normal system (like a PC) over TCP/IP protocols what will be the issues we will find in the stack? I have a good idea on what is going to happen. Just looking for comments/input.
