web commit by jmcneill: Audio codec is supported on sun7i (same as sun4i)

1: [[!meta title="NetBSD/evbarm on Allwinner Technology SoCs"]] 2: 3: NetBSD supports many boards based on Allwinner SoCs. Starting with NetBSD 8.0, FDT is used to configure devices. As a result, a large number of boards and configurations can be supported with a single kernel. 4: 5: <img src="https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DIRGmsOXcAEJu-j.jpg" width="300"> 6: <img src="https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DJYA7SCXUAEvEQk.jpg" width="300"> 7: 8: [[!toc levels=2]] 9: 10: # Supported SoCs 11: 12: <table> 13: <thead> 14: <tr> 15: <th>Family</th> 16: <th>SoC</th> 17: <th>NetBSD version</th> 18: <th>Example boards</th> 19: <th>Notes</th> 20: </tr> 21: </thead> 22: <tbody> 23: <tr><td>sun4i</td><td>A10</td><td>8.99.3 and later</td><td><a href="https://www.olimex.com/Products/OLinuXino/A10/A10-OLinuXino-LIME/open-source-hardware">Olimex A10-OLinuXino-LIME</a><td></td></tr> 24: <tr><td>sun5i</td><td>A10s</td><td>-</td><td></td></tr> 25: <tr><td>sun5i</td><td>A13</td><td>8.99.2 and later</td><td><a href="https://www.olimex.com/Products/OLinuXino/A13/A13-OLinuXino/open-source-hardware">Olimex A13-OLinuXino</a>, <a href="https://www.olimex.com/Products/OLinuXino/A13/A13-OLinuXino-MICRO/open-source-hardware">Olimex A13-OLinuXino-MICRO</a></td></tr> 26: <tr><td>sun5i</td><td>GR8</td><td>8.99.5</td><td><a href="https://getchip.com/pages/chippro">C.H.I.P.
