ARM64 SoC Linux Support Check-List
summary
Checklist for bringing up an ARM64 SoC: write a minimal device tree .dtsi + DTS entry and add it to the arch/arm64 boot makefile; implement or instantiate a timer/clockevent and register the IRQ controller so the kernel can schedule and handle interrupts; provide an earlycon UART physical address or early console driver for printk during bringup; implement the clock framework and clk provider plus reset control, and expose pin routing as pinctrl groups with GPIO bindings; submit a minimal mainline patch early for review.
