(End of quotes from your text. Later ones are from elsewhere.) I do not expect that is the current approach in head any more. Using ALLWINNER as an example: = https://svnweb.freebsd.org/base/head/sys/arm/conf/?sortby=3Drev&sortdir=3D= down#dirlist shows that there is only one ALLWINNER* configuration file: ALLWINNER_UP 320777 2 months andrew Remove the MULTIDELAY = option from arm. It's now enabled when PLATFORM is enabled=E2=80=A6 for uniprocessor ALLWINNER's.

Adding to GENERIC has included removing non-GENERIC in recent times. ALLWINNER might not have been updated for some time before it was removed for all I know. The last update prior to the removal was: > Revision 308405 - (view) (download) (annotate) - [select for diffs]=20 > Modified Mon Nov 7 10:26:44 2016 UTC (10 months, 3 weeks ago) by = andrew=20 > File length: 2994 byte(s)=20 > Diff to previous 305505 > Start to deorbit the kernel configs in GENERIC by marking them with > NO_UNIVERSE.
