Our corresponding Linux support relies on u-boot configuring the clocks correctly before booting, so it is not possible to boot any board without the CGU/CDU configuration happening here. There are also no board files, device trees, or defconfigs included here, but some common definitions that will be used to build board files currently are. The sc5xx SoCs themselves include many armv7 families (sc57x, sc58x, and sc594) all using an ARM Cortex-A5, and one armv8 family (sc598) indended to be a drop-in replacement for the SC594 in terms of peripherals, with a Cortex-A55 instead. Some of the configuration code in dmcinit and clkinit is quite scary and causes a lot of checkpatch violations. It is modified from code initially provided by ADI, but it has not been fully rewritten. There's a question of how important it is to clean up this code--it has some quality violations, but it has been in use (including in production) for over two years and is known to work for performing the low level SoC initialization, while a rewrite might introduce timing or sequence bugs that could take a significant amount of time to detect in the future. --- 1afa75c087a7961428f9cd9d0f47d5baa928c445
