[maemo-developers] [maemo-developers] Documentation aout ARM jazelle?

Hello,

I really got nervous when I realized that the ARM9 in the 770 supports
ARM's jazelle extension but no java is installed on that box at all.
There are many well strucutured open source jvms and with arm's
jazelle it should be possible to interpret only the bytecodes jazelle
is not able to digest, as far as I know this happens with interrupts,
so at least an interrupt-forewarding kernel module would be needed.
Or does anybody know wether such a module already exists?

However I was not able to find any developer-quality documentation
about jazelle, like which interrupts are where thrown and I completly
lack any deeper knowledge.
Any ideas where to get such documentation from?

Thank you in advance, lg Clemens
