We have some MVME8110 (QorIQ P5010) boards that we're using with VxWorks 6.9.  This uses the Universe chip just like the MVME6100.  I'd be very interested in RTEMS support with NFSv3 or 4.  It would be very helpful for us to move away from VxWorks and be able to move to newer versions of EPICS 7.

I hope this means that SLAC will be participating in the ongoing RTEMS 5 porting effort :)

There is a generic 

I'd not heard of an 8100 before.  At a glance, the immediate difference from the mvme2700 is the CPU.  The 8100 is based on a 64-bit e5500 core.

The mvme2700 variants advertise a P2010 or P2020.

The mvme8100 variants advertise a P5010 or p5020
