Hi Guenter, Things have changed. The BeagleBoard.org foundation is no longer planning to make any further boards using the JH7100 or upcoming JH7110 SoCs from StarFive. I still think support for the JH7100 will make it upstream eventually, but I'm no longer confident enough to recommend merging this before there are more concrete plans for the SoC. So thanks for the reviews. I'll repost it when I think it's time to consider it for upstream again. /Emil
