Microblaze port of OPC-UA open62541 stack

A Quartus/Nios II FPGA project that bundles open62541 (an OPC-UA stack) onto FreeRTOS for a soft-core processor on an Altera/Intel FPGA. It's for embedded engineers doing industrial automation who need OPC-UA talking directly off FPGA fabric rather than a Linux SBC.

Pairs a full OPC-UA stack with a real-time FreeRTOS target instead of just a bare-metal demo, and includes the complete Nios II BSP/HAL/LwIP stack so there's no guessing about the network layer underneath open62541.

The repo commits generated build artifacts (.sof, .elf, .map, .o, report files) straight into source control, which means it's a snapshot of someone's build output rather than a buildable project from clean. The README is a single line with no setup instructions, no Quartus/toolchain version pinned, and no indication of which open62541 version was vendored. One star, three forks, no commits since 2020 — there's no sign anyone, including the author, is maintaining or using this beyond the original project it was pulled from.
