1.44 kettenis 38: The current target platforms are Allwinner A10/A20/A33/A80, H3,
1.47 bentley 39: R16/R40, V40 (<code>sunxi</code>), Freescale i.MX6/7 (<code>imx</code>) and TI
40: OMAP3/4 (<code>am335x</code>/<code>beagle</code>/<code>panda</code>). We try to
1.44 kettenis 41: support most of the boards based on those SoCs. A list of supported
42: boards is in the <a href="#hardware">supported hardware</a> section.
1.2 jasper 43:
44: <p>
1.42 kettenis 45: There are still a fair number of things to do on each of these boards,
46: however OpenBSD is generally considered to be usable on them. The
47: platform is now self hosting, however there is no SMP support.
1.47 bentley 48: Networking is working on <code>am335x</code>, <code>imx</code>, <code>panda</code>
1.42 kettenis 49: and Allwinner A10/A20/H3.

1.26 tj 53: A note on the platforms and the associated boards: OpenBSD/armv7
1.2 jasper 54: bundles various platforms sharing the ARM v7 architecture. Due to the
1.42 kettenis 55: fact that there are many System on a Chips (SoC) around, OpenBSD/armv7
56: differentiates between various SoCs and may have a different level of
1.44 kettenis 57: support between them. All devices based on the Freescale i.MX6 and
1.47 bentley 58: i.MX7 are referred to as <code>imx</code>, all devices based on Allwinner
59: SoCs are referred to as <code>sunxi</code>. The boards with an TI OMAP 3/4
60: SoC are subdivided into <code>am335x</code> (for BeagleBone),
61: <code>beagle</code> (for BeagleBoard) and <code>panda</code> (for PandaBoard).
