I wonder if the sunxi (apart the weird letter case) is actually needed. Maybe we can just put "Allwinner SoCs" (it would be great if you could fix the SoCs case too).

Thanks!

If you want to have exact naming, try to find something that excludes the old Sun3i (F20) and earlier chips (unless someone is already planning to work on them). Maybe also mention the "Boxchip" name, although that seems to be falling out of use these days.

if we use "Allwinner AX SoC" ?

I'm not sure that's good to exclude chips. We have a number of SoCs we don't support even on later families (A31s, A23, mostly). I'm not sure we want to have an ever growing list of SoCs supported (or not-supported).

"sunXi" would be fine I guess, or "A-series" like suggested on IRC.
