We move the former Atmel wording to the the new Microchip name for this SoC family. With the name of the directory we also change the content in relation with the update of the MAINTAINERS file. The Datasheet links now point to real documents instead of 404s. Signed-off-by: Nicolas Ferre <nicolas.ferre@microchip.com> Signed-off-by: Alexandre Belloni <alexandre.belloni@bootlin.com> |

ARM Microchip SoCs (aka AT91)
=============================
Introduction
------------
This document gives useful information about the ARM Microchip SoCs that are
currently supported in Linux Mainline (you know, the one on kernel.org).
It is important to note that the Microchip (previously Atmel) ARM-based MPU
product line is historically named "AT91" or "at91" throughout the Linux kernel
development process even if this product prefix has completely disappeared from
the official Microchip product name. Anyway, files, directories, git trees,
git branches/tags and email subject always contain this "at91" sub-string.
AT91 SoCs

Documentation and detailed datasheet for each product are available on
the Microchip website: http://www.microchip.com.

Linux kernel information
------------------------
Linux kernel mach directory: arch/arm/mach-at91
MAINTAINERS entry is: "ARM/Microchip (AT91) SoC support"
Device Tree for AT91 SoCs and boards
------------------------------------
All AT91 SoCs are converted to Device Tree. Since Linux 3.19, these products
must use this method to boot the Linux kernel.
Work In Progress statement:
Device Tree files and Device Tree bindings that apply to AT91 SoCs and boards are
considered as "Unstable". To be completely clear, any at91 binding can change at
any time. So, be sure to use a Device Tree Binary and a Kernel Image generated from
the same source tree.
Please refer to the Documentation/devicetree/bindings/ABI.txt file for a
definition of a "Stable" binding/ABI.
This statement will be removed by AT91 MAINTAINERS when appropriate.
Naming conventions and best practice:
- SoCs Device Tree Source Include files are named after the official name of
the product (at91sam9g20.dtsi or sama5d33.dtsi for instance).
- Device Tree Source Include files (.dtsi) are used to collect common nodes that can be
shared across SoCs or boards (sama5d3.dtsi or at91sam9x5cm.dtsi for instance).
When collecting nodes for a particular peripheral or topic, the identifier have to
be placed at the end of the file name, separated with a "_" (at91sam9x5_can.dtsi
or sama5d3_gmac.dtsi for example).
- board Device Tree Source files (.dts) are prefixed by the string "at91-" so
that they can be identified easily. Note that some files are historical exceptions
to this rule (sama5d3[13456]ek.dts, usb_a9g20.dts or animeo_ip.dts for example).
