This initial port adds support of ARC HS Development Kit board with some basic features such serial port, USB, SD/MMC and Ethernet. Essentially we run Linux kernel on all 4 cores (i.e. utilize SMP) and heavily use IO Coherency for speeding-up DMA-aware peripherals. Note as opposed to other ARC boards we link Linux kernel to 0x9000_0000 intentionally because cores 1 and 3 configured with DCCM situated at our more usual link base 0x8000_0000. We still can use memory region starting at 0x8000_0000 as we reallocate DCCM in our platform code. Note that PAE remapping for DMA clients does not work due to an RTL bug, so CREG_PAE register must be programmed to all zeroes, otherwise it will cause problems with DMA to/from peripherals even if PAE40 is not used.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
