More On Cell SPUs and SPUfs At Developerworks
Arnd Bergmann has written an article on the new Cell processor and the abstractions that Linux uses to access the SPUs. The design is very Unixlike, with access to the SPUs done via a virtual filesystem. An interesting followup to the details released during the unveiling at Linuxtag, the article also has some nice links to more information about the new processor and the PPC architecture.
