ARM Ltd. Versatile Express family found in arch/arm/mach-versatile/Kconfig

The configuration item CONFIG_ARCH_VEXPRESS:

• prompt: ARM Ltd. Versatile Express family
• type: bool
• depends on: CONFIG_ARCH_MULTI_V7
• defined in arch/arm/mach-versatile/Kconfig
• found in Linux kernels: 5.19, 6.0–6.11

Help text

This option enables support for systems using Cortex processor based ARM core and logic (FPGA) tiles on the Versatile Express motherboard, for example:

- CoreTile Express A5x2 (V2P-CA5s) - CoreTile Express A9x4 (V2P-CA9) - CoreTile Express A15x2 (V2P-CA15) - LogicTile Express 13MG (V2F-2XV6) with A5, A7, A9 or A15 SMMs (Soft Macrocell Models) - Versatile Express RTSMs (Models)

You must boot using a Flattened Device Tree in order to use these platforms. The traditional (ATAGs) boot method is not usable on these boards with this option.
