i've started a comparison of function names and IO base addresses (nm
modules/nand/libnand) and have found that the function names are
exactly the same, as well as the I/O base for the A20 NAND driver is
exactly the same as that of the A10. i would hazard a very rough
guess therefore that the hardware of the A20 NAND is identical to that
of the A10.

"the usual" fucking around with the header files however has been done
[by that manager that we know orders allwinner software team members
to alter the copyright messages]. in the A10 3.4 source code
arch/arm/plat-sunxi/include/plat/platform.h we have a correct
Copyright message, 2007-2012, Copyright Allwinner Ltd, and in the A20
3.3 source code arch/arm/mach-sun7i/include/mach/platform.h we have
Copyright 2010-2015, Copyright Reuuimlla Technology Co., Ltd.
<www.reuuimllatech.com>

i note according to whois queries that the domain name
reuuimllatech.com is not registered. does anyone have £15 to spare
that they'd like to throw at a domain registrar, perchance?

sorry, i invented the word reuuimllatech. my stupid manager asked me to
remove all allwinner word from source code. so i replaced all allwinner with
reuuimlla, the reverse of allwinner.

ROFLMAO. Brilliant. I wondered where such a name came from. You didn't
only reverse you tilted a few letters.

BTW. I know it's a thin line. But if the copyright holder is
non-existent, then there is no copyright right?

Another questionable thought. What about registering "Reuuimlla
Technology Co., Ltd." at the Chinese authorities (chamber of
commerce) and claim copyright as stated in the code.

...Corporate legal thinking yugh.

Rules and laws never hinder those who which to harm. Those who want
live in harmony are always limited by the rules to prevent harm.

The problem is choice and choice is probably the solution.

anyway, i'm going to try an experiment - compile up an A20 kernel,
replicate the stuff i did earlier with A10 (fex loader) and then try
compiling the standard A10 3.4 nand kernel in.
