Cover letter [PATCH 0/6] Add basic support for Allwinner A1X SoCs

Dear Maxime Ripard,

Quoted 7 lines · Maxime Ripard

You'll find in this patchset the initial support for Allwinner A10 and A13 SoCs from Allwinner. Since the internal name of these SoCs are sun4i and sun5i, the mach- directory is named sunxi.

You can find these SoCs in the Cubieboard, the A13-olinuxino or the Melee A1000.

Quoted 6 lines

Both SoCs should work fine, as the A13 is a trimmed down version of the A10, but it has only been tested on a A13-OlinuXino from Olimex.

Support is quite minimal for now, since it only includes timer and IRQ controller drivers, so we can only boot to userspace through initramfs. Support for the other peripherals on these SoCs will come eventually.

Would you mind adding a file Documentation/arm/sunxi/README (or another name) that lists the SoCs that are supported and the public datasheets that are available for those SoCs?

I think it's always great to ease the process of finding the SoC datasheets.

Thanks!

Thomas
