Subject: [PATCH] AVR32 architecture support
This patch adds common infrastructure code for the Atmel AVR32
architecture.
AVR32 is a new high-performance 32-bit RISC microprocessor core,
designed for cost-sensitive embedded applications, with particular
emphasis on low power consumption and high code density. The AVR32

A GNU toolchain with support for AVR32 is included with the ATSTK1000

Alternatively, you can build it yourself by following the
Getting Started guide at avr32linux.org, which also provides links
to the necessary sources and patches you need to download:
A full set of u-boot, kernel and filesystem images can be built using
buildroot. This will also produce a working toolchain which can be
used instead of the official GNU toolchain above. A customized version
of buildroot for AVR32 can be downloaded here:

The AVR32 ports of u-boot, the Linux kernel, the GNU toolchain and
other associated software are actively supported by Atmel Corporation.
