ARM: SAMSUNG: Add initial documentation directory and overview
Start Documentation/arm/Samsung and add an initial overview file which whilst is not complete, is better than nothing. Signed-off-by: Ben Dooks <ben-linux@fluff.org>

Samsung ARM Linux Overview
|
||||
==========================
|
||||
|
||||
Introduction
|
||||
------------
|
||||
|
||||
The Samsung range of ARM SoCs spans many similar devices, from the initial
|
||||
ARM9 through to the newest ARM cores. This document shows an overview of
|
||||
the current kernel support, how to use it and where to find the code
|
||||
that supports this.
|
||||
|
||||
The currently supported SoCs are:
|
||||
|
||||
- S3C24XX: See Documentation/arm/Samsung-S3C24XX/Overview.txt for full list
|
||||
- S3C64XX: S3C6400 and S3C6410
|
||||
- S5PC6440
|
||||
|
||||
S5PC100 and S5PC110 support is currently being merged
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
S3C24XX Systems
|
||||
---------------
|
||||
|
||||
There is still documentation in Documnetation/arm/Samsung-S3C24XX/ which
|
||||
deals with the architecture and drivers specific to these devices.
|
||||
|
||||
See Documentation/arm/Samsung-S3C24XX/Overview.txt for more information
|
||||
on the implementation details and specific support.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Configuration
|
||||
-------------
|
||||
|
||||
A number of configurations are supplied, as there is no current way of
|
||||
unifying all the SoCs into one kernel.
|
||||
|
||||
s5p6440_defconfig - S5P6440 specific default configuration
|
||||
s5pc100_defconfig - S5PC100 specific default configuration
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Layout
|
||||
------
|
||||
|
||||
The directory layout is currently being restructured, and consists of
|
||||
several platform directories and then the machine specific directories
|
||||
of the CPUs being built for.
|
||||
|
||||
plat-samsung provides the base for all the implementations, and is the
|
||||
last in the line of include directories that are processed for the build
|
||||
specific information. It contains the base clock, GPIO and device definitions
|
||||
to get the system running.
|
||||
|
||||
plat-s3c is the s3c24xx/s3c64xx platform directory, although it is currently
|
||||
involved in other builds this will be phased out once the relevant code is
|
||||
moved elsewhere.
|
||||
|
||||
plat-s3c24xx is for s3c24xx specific builds, see the S3C24XX docs.
|
||||
|
||||
plat-s3c64xx is for the s3c64xx specific bits, see the S3C24XX docs.
|
||||
|
||||
plat-s5p is for s5p specific builds, more to be added.
