The ViewVC web interface does not work like a file directory in a typical file system for what it reports for the likes of a20/ and a83t/ . . . https://svnweb.freebsd.org/base/head/sys/arm/allwinner/ listed (compared and contrasted examples): a20/ as at revision 310117 (age 4 weeks) not based on adding or removing file(s) but just for updates to at least one file below a20/ as of that revision. (Additions and removals would also change the reported revision and age.) but: a83t/ as at the older revision 306646 (age 3 months) based on there being (since back then): no updates to files, no additions of files/directories, and no removals of files/directories. When you update the files files in a83t/ the revision and age will update, even if you do not add or remove files. So what I reported for a83t/ did indicate the lack of updates that a10/, a13/, a20/, a31/, a33/, a64/, and h3/ got in revision 310117. (Of course it might have been that a83t/ did not need such updates for some reason but that seemed less likely.) > Each of thoses directories only contain file for the padconf (the > pinmuxing information) and a file with the list of needed file for this > SoC (if one want to compile a kernel for a specific SoC).

And thanks in advance for the updates! === Mark Millard markmi at dsl-only.net
