Yes, LWP will need to know how to do a context switch on that
processor. If you have pthreads support on that platform, you can
configure arla with pthreads by using the configure option
--with-pthreads=dir.
If you don't have pthreads, you must add support for your processor
type in lwp/process.S. This should not be very hard if you know how
the processor works.
Other parts of arla should work regardless of the processor type.
