arch/arm/arm2 <- contains e.g. the ARM2 pmap module
arch/arm/arm6 <- contains e.g. the ARM6 pmap module,
cache routines, TLB routines, etc.
arch/arm/arm7 <- contains all the ARM7-specific goo.
arch/arm/arm8 <- contains all the ARM8-specific goo.
arch/arm/sa110 <- contains e.g. the SA110 cache routines,
TLB routines, etc.
Seems basically sound, except...
A RiscPC can be fitted with any of arm6,7/SA110 (or even a few had arm8)
How would one build a kernel that could select at boot time the
appropriate CPU?
R.
