There are other boards (namely the banana pi) that use exactly the same
devices.
Additionally, we are moving from static FDT support (DTB compiled
in-kernel) to DTB passed to kernel by the boot loader (ubldr). The u-boot
for these boards are already available on ports and as the crochet support
for these boards isn't committed yet, this should not bring any issues.

This config is already building all modules, so we don't need the
MODULES_EXTRA definition. It was also causing problems to users who
rely on MODULES_OVERRIDE to do the right thing.

The Allwinner SoC has an AHCI device on its internal main bus rather
than the PCI bus. This SoC is somewhat underdocumented, and its SATA
controller is no exception. The methods to support this chip were
harvested from the Linux Allwinner SDK, and then constants invented to
describe what's going on based on low-level constants contained in the
SATA standard and guess work.
This SoC requires a specific AHCI channel setup in order to start the
operations on the channel properly.
Clock setup and AHCI channel setup idea came from NetBSD.
Tested on Cubieboard 2 and Banana pi (and attachment on Cubieboard by
Pratik Singhal).

- Add HDMI framer node and add refernce to it to lcdc node. This part of
DTS tree is custom and does not match Linux DTS because Linux uses
combination of pseudo-node in DTS and hardcoded driver information
that does not map to our model.

tv open 480p
mmc rescan 0
fatload mmc 0 0x80100000 kernel.bin
go 0x80100000
The current FreeBSD driver doesn't program the video
clocks so the u-boot tv command is necessary in order
for the frame buffer to be useful (otherwise it can
be skipped).
The SD card for the Yiyate Android TV Box doesn't need
anything special beyond creating a FAT16 and a UFS

Beaglebone extensions (shields/capes).
Original dts filenames were not changed, they're now wrappers over dts
files provided by TI. So make sure you update .dtb files on your

GPIO addressing was changed: instead of one global /dev/gpioc0 there
are per-bank instances of /dev/gpiocX. Each bank has 32 pins so for
instance pin 121 on /dev/gpioc0 in old addressing scheme is now pin 25
on /dev/gpioc3
On Pandaboard serial console devices was changed from /dev/ttyu0 to
/dev/ttyu2 so you'll have to update /etc/ttys to get login prompt

This is based on the patch sent by Alexander Fedorov with the following
fixes/improvements:
- Better error handling;
- Clock is derived from PLL6 (obtained from netbsd);
- No more unnecessary busy loops on interrupt handler;
- style(9) fixes and code cleanup.
I also want to thanks Martin Galvan who has sent an alternative
implementation with some interesting fixes.
Tested on CubieBoard2, Banana-Pi (thanks to netgate!) and Cubieboard1
(Pratik Singhal).
This is intended to pave the way for the upcoming GSoC work (and make
easier the build of images for the supported boards).

r283057 applied most of D2432, however while it removed SMP from
AML8726, it missed adding the SMP option to the board specific

The Alpine Platform-On-Chip offers multicore processing
(quad ARM Cortex-A15), 1/10Gb Ethernet, SATA 3, PCI-E 3,
DMA engines, Virtualization, Advanced Power Management and other.
This code drop involves basic platform support including:
SMP, IRQs, SerDes, SATA. As of now it is missing the PCIe support.
Part of the functionality is provided by the low-level code (HAL)
delivered by the chip vendor (Annapurna Labs) and is a subject to
change in the future (is planned to be moved to sys/contrib directory).

Of note:
- This commit adds native FreeBSD/arm release build support without
requiring out-of-tree utilities.
- Part of this merge removes the WANDBOARD-{SOLO,DUAL,QUAD} kernel
configuration files, for which the IMX6 kernel configuration file
should be used instead.
- The resulting images have a 'freebsd' user (password 'freebsd'),
to allow ssh(1) access when console access is not available (VGA
or serial). The default 'root' user password is set to 'root'.
- The /etc/ttys file for arm images now enable both ttyv0 and ttyu0
by default.

Add the ARM_NEW_PMAP option to std.armv6. This is working well in early
testing and it's time for wide exposure, but it's still nice to be able
to fall back to the old implementation for testing when a problem comes
along. Eventually the option and the old implementation will go away.
The opportunity now exists to move a whole lot of boilerplate from all the
arm kernel config files into std.arm*, but that's a commit for another day.
