+Summary
+=======
+
+This README is about U-Boot support for Renesas's ARM Cortex-A9 based RMOBILE[1]
+family of SoCs. Renesas's RMOBILE SoC family contains an ARM Cortex-A9.
+
+Currently the following boards are supported:
+
+* KMC KZM-A9-GT [2]
+
+* Atmark-Techno Armadillo-800-EVA [3]
+
+Toolchain
+=========
+
+ARM Cortex-A9 support ARM v7 instruction set (-march=armv7a).
+But currently we compile with -march=armv5 to allow more compilers to work.
+(For U-Boot code this has no performance impact.)
+Because there was no compiler which is supporting armv7a not much before.
+Currently, ELDK[4], Linaro[5], CodeSourcey[6] and Emdebian[7] supports -march=armv7a
+and you can get.
+
+Build
