From f2b2cc146e5be18daef3ae9752699e9422f7070d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Andre Przywara Date: Mon, 27 Dec 2021 15:10:49 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] docs(allwinner): update SoC list and build options Our list of possible Allwinner build targets was missing the newly introduced R329 support. Fix that by adding a table with maps the SoC names to the build target names. Also add some explanation about the recently introduced PSCI power management providers.
