This is an ARM + FPGA instrumentation board used at telescopes in
Antarctica, Chile, and Canada:
https://pole.uchicago.edu/
https://arxiv.org/abs/1608.03025
https://chime-experiment.ca/
With these commits and a suitable userspace, we can boot the board, load
a FPGA bitstream, and communicate with the RTL design. Most of the board's
telemetry sensors (temperatures, voltages) are functional but detailed
testing is to follow.
We are weaning ourselves off TI's "official" kernel for this SOC, which
has been stuck at 2.6.37 and is not really fit for use. To anyone at TI:
despite good silicon and some dedicated support enginers, your
open-source software strategy for these parts has not worked well.
Please get in touch with me if you'd like to have a constructive
discussion about ways to improve it.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
