Hi, I want to know about Kirkwood port.
(I have Kuro Sheeva, Sheevaplug with eSATA connector.)

Now we have following device drivers: simplebus, sata, twsi(I2C), gpio, ehci,
mge(ether)

But we don't some more drivers like localbus sdhci, nand flash, crypto engine,
XOR engine and so on.

Anyone work on it? First of all, what is localbus?

BTW, I also interested in PANDABOARD, so I tryed code from
https://gitorious.org/+freebsd-omap-team/freebsd/freebsd-omap/ .

With some change, I managed to build it (as ARMv6) and 
the kernel seems to try to start init. I use rescue sh as 
init process it stops with illegal instruction.

As investigating it,  I realized atomic operation need to
 be substantially rewritten.
