The Nuvoton NPCM7xx SoC family are used to implement Baseboard
Management Controllers in servers. While the family includes four SoCs,
this patch implements limited support for two of them: NPCM730 (targeted
for Data Center applications) and NPCM750 (targeted for Enterprise
applications).
This patch includes little more than the bare minimum needed to boot a
Linux kernel built with NPCM7xx support in direct-kernel mode:
- Two Cortex-A9 CPU cores with built-in periperhals.
- Global Configuration Registers.
- Clock Management.
- 3 Timer Modules with 5 timers each.
- 4 serial ports.
The chips themselves have a lot more features, some of which will be
added to the model at a later stage.
