This README details how to build the FSK bridge example

To build and run the FSK bridge rea
1) Open existing hdl/quartus/bladerf.qsf project in Quartus
	a) Generate the Nios core
		i) Tools -> QSys -> File -> Open -> navigate to ./hdl/fpga/ip/altera/nios_system/nios_system.qsys
		ii) After opening qsys file, go to Generation tab, click the "Generate" button
	b) Compile the embedded Nios image
		i) Tools -> Nios II Software Build Tools for Eclipse
			I)   File -> Import -> General -> Existing Projects into Workspace -> Next
				-> Browse to checkout root directory -> check both lms_spi_controller and lms_spi_controller_bsp
				-> Finish
			II)  right click lms_spi_controller_bsp -> NIOS II -> Generate BSP
			III) right click lms_spi_controller -> Build
			IV)  right click lms_spi_controller -> Make Targets -> Build... -> select mem_init_generate -> Build
	c) Synthesize FPGA image
		i) Processing -> Start Compilation

2) Compile driver and user mode applications
	a) cd linux/kernel ; make ; insmod bladeRF.ko
	b) cd ../apps; make
	c) To program the fpga execute ./simple_load c4images/blink.rbf
		i) Load bladerf.rbf from the quartus output_files directory

3) Use bladeRF as an FSK bridge!
