h2. About the Linaro OpenEmbedded Release for ARMv8-A
"OpenEmbedded":http://www.openembedded.org/wiki/Main_Page is a software framework used for creating Linux distributions aimed for, but not restricted to, embedded devices. The port offered here has been built using Linaro GCC version 4.8.
h2. About the Juno ARM Development Platform
The Juno ARM Development Platform (ADP) is a software development platform for ARMv8-A. It includes:
* The Juno Versatile Express board
* ARMv8-A reference software ports available through Linaro
* Optional LogicTile Express FPGA board to extend the Juno system - this adds a large FPGA to Juno that can be used for driver development or prototyping.
The Juno hardware delivers to software developers an open, vendor neutral ARMv8-A development platform with:
* Cortex® A57 and A53 MPCore™ for ARMv8-A big.LITTLE
* Mali™-T624 for 3D Graphics Acceleration and GP-GPU compute
* A SoC architecture aligned with Level 1 (Server) Base System Architecture
The Juno ADP is available from ARM, please visit "www.arm.com/juno":http://www.arm.com/juno for details.
h2. About the Linaro Stable Kernel (LSK)
The Linaro Stable Kernel (LSK) is produced, validated and released by Linaro and is based on the Linux stable kernel tree. The LSK focuses on quality and stability and is therefore a great foundation for product development. It also includes backports of commonly desired features, provided they meet the quality requirements, and also any bug fixes.
LSK releases appear monthly. Sources are also made available so you can build your own images (see the "'Building from Source'":https://releases.linaro.org/14.10/members/arm/openembedded/juno-lsk/#tabs-3 tab).
h2. License
The use of Juno software is subject to the terms of the Juno "End User License Agreement":https://releases.linaro.org/14.10/members/arm/openembedded/juno-lsk/#tabs-5.
h2. Support
Please send any ARM support enquiries to "juno-support@arm.com":mailto:juno-support@arm.com?subject=Juno%20support%20request. Engineers at Linaro Members can receive support for Juno by sending support requests to "support@linaro.org":mailto:support@linaro.org?subject=Juno%20support%20request or visiting "http://support.linaro.org":http://support.linaro.org.
h2. Functionality Listed by Software Component
h3. Linux Kernel
* Support for the ARM Juno Development Platform
* Limited set of peripherals present on the Juno development board: on-chip USB, non-secure UART, HDMI output, keyboard and mouse functionality over PS/2 connector, ethernet support is provided via on-board SMSC ethernet chip.
* Full USB driver support in Linux, for access to mass storage and input devices.
* big.LITTLE MP support for all 6 cores.
* DVFS stable operating points are enabled for nominal and overdrive
h3. UEFI
* Booting an Operating System from NOR Flash or USB mass storage
* Support for Ethernet and PXE boot
* Version: v1.0-rc0
h3. ARM Trusted Firmware
* The ARM Trusted Firmware provides an open source framework enabling easy integration of secure OS and run-time services to ARMv8-A platforms
* Loads the System Control Processor(SCP) firmware into the SCP
* Initializes the Trusted World before transitioning into Normal World.
* Services CPU hotplug requests coming from Normal World
* Provides a standard Power State Coordintion Interface (PSCI) implementation
* Version: v0.4-Juno-0.5-rc1
h3. SCP Firmware
* System configuration
* DDR initialization
* Basic power state management for frequency and C-states
* SCPI commands (Ready, Set/Get Clocks, Set/Get CPU power states)
* Thermal protection (shutdown at 85C, Linux will receive a warning at 75C)
* DVFS support
* Version: 1.0.0-rc3
h2. Known Limitations Listed by Software Component
h3. Linux Kernel
* The big.LITTLE support is functional but has not yet been tuned for efficiency and performance.
* The CPUIdle framework is present but disabled in the kernel config due to firmware issues which will be addressed in a future release.
h3. UEFI
* No display controller support
* No USB OHCI support. Only EHCI is supported
h3. ARM Trusted Firmware
* Does not support changing the primary core using SCC General Purpose Register 1.
* Does not support bringing up secondary cores using PSCI CPU_ON when they have been enabled at boot time by SCP using SCC General Purpose Register 1.
h2. Known Issues
