Arm Versatile boards (``versatileab``, ``versatilepb``)
=======================================================

The Arm Versatile baseboard is emulated with the following devices:

-  ARM926E, ARM1136 or Cortex-A8 CPU

-  PL190 Vectored Interrupt Controller

-  Four PL011 UARTs

-  SMC 91c111 Ethernet adapter

-  PL110 LCD controller

-  PL050 KMI with PS/2 keyboard and mouse.

-  PCI host bridge. Note the emulated PCI bridge only provides access
   to PCI memory space. It does not provide access to PCI IO space. This
   means some devices (eg. ne2k_pci NIC) are not usable, and others (eg.
   rtl8139 NIC) are only usable when the guest drivers use the memory
   mapped control registers.

-  PCI OHCI USB controller.

-  LSI53C895A PCI SCSI Host Bus Adapter with hard disk and CD-ROM
   devices.

-  PL181 MultiMedia Card Interface with SD card.
docs/system: Split target-arm.rst into sub-documents Currently the documentation for Arm system emulator targets is in a single target-arm.rst. This describes only some of the boards and often in a fairly abbreviated fashion. Restructure it so that each board has its own documentation file in the docs/system/arm/ subdirectory. This will hopefully encourage us to write board documentation that describes the board in detail, rather than a few brief paragraphs in a single long page. The table of contents should also help users to find the board they care about faster. Once the structure is in place we'll be able to move microvm.rst from the top-level docs/ directory. All the text from the old page is retained, except for the final paragraph ("A Linux 2.6 test image is available on the QEMU web site. More information is available in the QEMU mailing-list archive."), which is deleted. The git history shows this was originally added in reference to the integratorcp board (at that time the only Arm board that was supported), and has subsequently gradually been further and further separated from the integratorcp documentation by the insertion of other board documentation sections. It's extremely out of date and no longer accurate, since AFAICT there isn't an integratorcp kernel on the website any more; so better deleted than retained.

docs: Be consistent about capitalization of 'Arm' The company 'Arm' went through a rebranding some years back involving a recapitalization from 'ARM' to 'Arm'. As a result our documentation is a bit inconsistent between the two forms. It's not worth trying to update everywhere in QEMU, but it's easy enough to make docs/ consistent. Note that "ARMv8" and similar architecture names, and older CPU names like "ARM926" still retain all-caps.
