on the port-acorn32's TODO list for quite some time :
- when the serial console is selected, don't exclude the screen
alltogether; currently the keyboard is still not attached but that might be
a configuration problem in the GENERIC console or a failure to explicitly
connect to a wsmux. This needs further investigation.
- create a framework for the display memory writeback on vsync for
StrongARM processors since they don't have a write-trough cache. This is to
solve the lazy screen update that is very evident in single user mode on
these processors; the cache isn't flushed/written back that often and parts
of the screen can thus be resident in the cache but not written out to
memory yet.
- clean up some loose ends in the code.
The IOMD/VIDC combination is now moved to arch/arm/iomd together. These
files still need a lot of cleaning up :( .... esp. the RC7500 support that
is still dormant in it; this needs either to be removed or split out for
RC7500's ``VIDC'' video/audio variant.
Apart from the RC7500 support wich is still in arch/arm32 the
iomd,vidc,riscpc and podulebus subdirectories of arch/arm32 can be removed.
This split still uses some small parts of arch/arm32 .... those are the MI
parts that haven't been moved yet.
RiscPC/A7000 have been tested and confirmed to build as should NC.
