1 Samsung ARM Linux Overview
2 ==========================
7 The Samsung range of ARM SoCs spans many similar devices, from the initial
8 ARM9 through to the newest ARM cores. This document shows an overview of
9 the current kernel support, how to use it and where to find the code
12 The currently supported SoCs are:
14 - S3C24XX: See Documentation/arm/Samsung-S3C24XX/Overview.txt for full list
15 - S3C64XX: S3C6400 and S3C6410
22 There is still documentation in Documnetation/arm/Samsung-S3C24XX/ which
23 deals with the architecture and drivers specific to these devices.
25 See Documentation/arm/Samsung-S3C24XX/Overview.txt for more information
26 on the implementation details and specific support.
32 A number of configurations are supplied, as there is no current way of
33 unifying all the SoCs into one kernel.
35 s5pc110_defconfig - S5PC110 specific default configuration
36 s5pv210_defconfig - S5PV210 specific default configuration
42 The directory layout is currently being restructured, and consists of
43 several platform directories and then the machine specific directories
44 of the CPUs being built for.
46 plat-samsung provides the base for all the implementations, and is the
47 last in the line of include directories that are processed for the build
48 specific information. It contains the base clock, GPIO and device definitions
49 to get the system running.
51 plat-s3c24xx is for s3c24xx specific builds, see the S3C24XX docs.
53 plat-s5p is for s5p specific builds, and contains common support for the
54 S5P specific systems. Not all S5Ps use all the features in this directory
55 due to differences in the hardware.
61 The old plat-s3c and plat-s5pc1xx directories have been removed, with
62 support moved to either plat-samsung or plat-s5p as necessary. These moves
63 where to simplify the include and dependency issues involved with having
64 so many different platform directories.
