The Hammerhead platform is built around a AVR32 32-bit microcontroller
from Atmel. It offers versatile peripherals, such as ethernet, usb
device, usb host etc.
The board also incooperates a power supply and is a Power over Ethernet
(PoE) Powered Device (PD).
Additonally, a Cyclone III FPGA from Altera is integrated on the board.
The FPGA is mapped into the 32-bit AVR memory bus. The FPGA offers two
DDR2 SDRAM interfaces, which will cover even the most exceptional need
of memory bandwidth. Together with the onboard video decoder the board
is ready for video processing.
This patch does include the basic support for the fpga device driver,
but not the device driver itself.

This replaces the at32_clock_list array with a linked list.
Clocks can now be registered (added) to the list.

Now that Linux includes support for the Atmel AT91SAM9260 and
AT91SAM9261 processors in addition to the original Atmel AT91RM9200
(with support for more AT91 processors pending), the "mach-at91rm9200"
and "arch-at91rm9200" directories should be renamed to indicate their
more generic nature.
The following git commands should be run BEFORE applying this patch:
git-mv arch/arm/mach-at91rm9200 arch/arm/mach-at91
git-mv include/asm-arm/arch-at91rm9200 include/asm-arm/arch-at91

This adds support for the Atmel AVR32 architecture as well as the AT32AP7000
CPU and the AT32STK1000 development board.
AVR32 is a new high-performance 32-bit RISC microprocessor core, designed for
cost-sensitive embedded applications, with particular emphasis on low power
consumption and high code density. The AVR32 architecture is not binary
compatible with earlier 8-bit AVR architectures.
The AVR32 architecture, including the instruction set, is described by the
AVR32 Architecture Manual, available from
http://www.atmel.com/dyn/resources/prod_documents/doc32000.pdf
The Atmel AT32AP7000 is the first CPU implementing the AVR32 architecture. It
features a 7-stage pipeline, 16KB instruction and data caches and a full
Memory Management Unit. It also comes with a large set of integrated
peripherals, many of which are shared with the AT91 ARM-based controllers from
Atmel.
Full data sheet is available from
http://www.atmel.com/dyn/resources/prod_documents/doc32003.pdf
while the CPU core implementation including caches and MMU is documented by
the AVR32 AP Technical Reference, available from
http://www.atmel.com/dyn/resources/prod_documents/doc32001.pdf
Information about the AT32STK1000 development board can be found at
http://www.atmel.com/dyn/products/tools_card.asp?tool_id=3918
including a BSP CD image with an earlier version of this patch, development
tools (binaries and source/patches) and a root filesystem image suitable for
booting from SD card.
Alternatively, there's a preliminary "getting started" guide available at
http://avr32linux.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/GettingStarted which provides links
to the sources and patches you will need in order to set up a cross-compiling
environment for avr32-linux.
This patch, as well as the other patches included with the BSP and the
toolchain patches, is actively supported by Atmel Corporation.
