I've had JH7110's FreeBSD support as my project to learn kernel development.

Here is my github repository:
https://github.com/jsihvola/freebsd-src/

I have written preliminary drivers for GPIO, reset and clock gen
and now it boots.

(Unfortunately I wasn't aware of M. Horne's DMA fix for MMC and spent around a 
month fixing it by myself (I only should have gone through his old Github 
repository more carefully...))

For last weeks I've been working with Ethernet driver (gmac4 devices are 
supported in FreeBSD (/sys/dev/eqos) but JH7110 needs more code...)

Being busy with all this stuff I haven't _yet_ inspected Robn's Github 
repository, but I'm aware of it.

So be free to use my codes. And I hope we can communicate for a more 
coordinated JH7110 development effort.
