58c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ciIntroduction
68c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci------------
78c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci
88c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci  The Samsung range of ARM SoCs spans many similar devices, from the initial
98c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci  ARM9 through to the newest ARM cores. This document shows an overview of
108c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci  the current kernel support, how to use it and where to find the code
118c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci  that supports this.
128c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci
138c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci  The currently supported SoCs are:
148c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci
158c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci  - S3C24XX: See Documentation/arm/samsung-s3c24xx/overview.rst for full list
168c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci  - S3C64XX: S3C6400 and S3C6410
178c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci  - S5PC110 / S5PV210

218c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci---------------
228c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci
238c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci  There is still documentation in Documnetation/arm/Samsung-S3C24XX/ which
248c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci  deals with the architecture and drivers specific to these devices.
258c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci
268c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci  See Documentation/arm/samsung-s3c24xx/overview.rst for more information
278c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci  on the implementation details and specific support.

308c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ciConfiguration
318c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci-------------
328c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci
338c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci  A number of configurations are supplied, as there is no current way of
348c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci  unifying all the SoCs into one kernel.
358c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci
368c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci  s5pc110_defconfig
378c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci	- S5PC110 specific default configuration
388c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci  s5pv210_defconfig
398c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci	- S5PV210 specific default configuration

428c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ciLayout
438c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci------
448c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci
458c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci  The directory layout is currently being restructured, and consists of
468c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci  several platform directories and then the machine specific directories
478c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci  of the CPUs being built for.
488c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci
498c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci  plat-samsung provides the base for all the implementations, and is the
508c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci  last in the line of include directories that are processed for the build
518c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci  specific information. It contains the base clock, GPIO and device definitions
528c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci  to get the system running.
538c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci
548c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci  plat-s3c24xx is for s3c24xx specific builds, see the S3C24XX docs.
558c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci
568c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci  plat-s5p is for s5p specific builds, and contains common support for the
578c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci  S5P specific systems. Not all S5Ps use all the features in this directory
588c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci  due to differences in the hardware.
598c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci
608c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci
618c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ciLayout changes
628c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci--------------
638c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci
648c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci  The old plat-s3c and plat-s5pc1xx directories have been removed, with
658c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci  support moved to either plat-samsung or plat-s5p as necessary. These moves
668c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci  where to simplify the include and dependency issues involved with having
678c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci  so many different platform directories.
