Can you tell me where you would draw the line? Based on a discussion we had on
IRC, I was going to send a patch to rename ARCH_THUNDER to ARCH_OCTEON
and clarify how it relates to the other families. Here is what I
understood it should be:
config ARCH_OCTEON
bool "Marvell OCTEON and ThunderX data processing units"
help
This enables support for Marvell (formerly Cavium) OCTEON
Family of DPUs and SoCs, including OCTEON 10, Octeon TX2
CN92xx/CN96xx/CN98xx, OcteonTX CN8xxx, ThunderX CN88xx, and
Octeon Fusion products.
Note: these are unrelated to the similarly named ThunderX2
CN99xx server processors, the Octeon TX2 91xx SoCs and the
Armada processors.
config ARCH_THUNDER2
bool "Marvell/Cavium ThunderX2 Server Processors"
select GPIOLIB
help
This enables support for Marvell's discontinued ThunderX2
CN99XX family of server processors, originally sold by Cavium.
Note: these do not include the unrelated ThunderX CN88xx or
OCTEON TX2 processors, despite the similarities in naming.
config ARCH_MVEBU
bool "Marvell EBU SoC Family"
help
This enables support for Marvell EBU familly, including:
- Armada 3700 SoC Family
- Armada 7K SoC Family
- Armada 8K SoC Family
- Octeon TX2 CN91xx Family
If that's not the correct interpretation, does that mean that OCTEON 10
and Octeon TX2 CN92xx/CN96xx/CN98xx are a different family from
Octeon/TX CN8xxx and ThunderX CN88xx and should have a fourth
symbol, or are they part of the Armada family?
