This is the RFC initial patchset for the "new" Allwinner SUNIV ARM9 SoC.

The same die is packaged differently, come with different co-packaged
DRAM or shipped with different SDK; and then made many model names: F23,
F25, F1C100A, F1C100S, F1C200S, F1C500, F1C600, R6, etc. These SoCs all
share a common feature set and are packaged similarly (eLQFP128 for SoCs
without co-packaged DRAM, QFN88 for with DRAM). As their's no
functionality hidden on the QFN88 models (except DRAM interface not
exported), it's not clever to differentiate them. So I will use suniv as
common name of all these SoCs.

As it's the first not ARMv7+ Allwinner SoC to get supported, this
patchset firstly made CONFIG_ARCH_SUNXI a common config item, and let
selectable CONFIG_ARCH_SUNXI_V{5,7} to internally select it. This makes
reusing most work possible. This is PATCH 1~2.

The ARM9 has neither GIC nor arch_timer, like the sun4i/5i Cortex-A8
SoCs. So adapt the IRQ and timer driver used by sun4i/5i to support
suniv. This is PATCH 3~5.

Then it's the common way to support a new SoC -- pinctrl, CCU and
initial DT.

Icenowy Zheng (9):
  ARM: add CONFIG_ARCH_SUNXI_V7 for differentiate ARMv5/v7 Allwinner
    SoCs
  ARM: sunxi: add Allwinner ARMv5 SoCs
  irqchip/sun4i: add support for suniv interrupt controller
  clocksource: sun4i: add a compatible for suniv
  clocksource/drivers/sun4i: register as sched_clock on suniv
  pinctrl: sunxi: add support for suniv (newer F-series SoCs)
  clk: sunxi-ng: add support for suniv SoC
  ARM: dts: suniv: add initial DTSI file for suniv and F1C100s
  ARM: suniv: f1c100s: add device tree for Lichee Pi Nano

Where is that suniv prefix coming from?

And you need to have a SoC in all your compatibles. This isn't about
being clever or not, this is just a matter of being able to accurately
read in a crystal ball. Or maybe it's just the same, in which case,
I'd really like to have a course :)

You should really answer two questions here:
  - Are you able to predict whether you'll find an SoC part of that
    family in the future that derives a bit and will need a compatible
    of its own?
  - Are you able to predict which quirks we'll need along the way to
    support all the SoCs you've listed there?

If you can't answer yes to both these questions, with a 100%
certainty, then you'll need a SoC name in the compatible.

Which doesn't prevent you from sharing as much as possible the DT like
we did between the A10s and the A13 for example.

The BSP (Melis and Linux). (e.g. "libs/suniv" directory of the Melis SDK and 
"arch/arm/boot/dts/sunivw1p1.dtsi" in the Linux SDK)

Okay. I will choose to use f1c100s in my next patchset, as it's where
it's developed. (Although I mainly refered F1C600 BSP and document)

So the suniv-f1c100s.dtsi will still be kept empty and all peripherals known 
should go through suniv.dtsi.

Do you have a link to that BSP?

Sorry if I wasn't really clear. You can totally keep the current DT
structure if that makes sense (and judging by what you're saying, it
does.), but the compatibles should have the SoC name in it.

I have it on the Baidu Pan. Is it acceptable?

Yep, it's not crazy fast but it works :)

There's Melis (F1C100s) and Linux (F1C600) BSP.

In case it's not clear, the compatible strings and any new bindings need 
to be documented.
