+ <p>Alpine is a family of Platform-on-Chip devices, including
+ multi-core 32-bit (first-gen Alpine) and 64-bit (Alpine V2) ARM
+ CPUs, developed by Annapurna Labs.</p>
+
+ <p>The primary focus areas of the Alpine platform are
+ high-performance networking, storage and embedded applications. The
+ network subsystem features 10-, 25-, and 50-Gbit Ethernet
+ controllers with support for virtualization, load-balancing,
+ hardware offload and other advanced features.</p>
+
+ <p>A basic patch set has already been committed to HEAD including:</p>
+
+ <ul>
+ <li>PCIe Root Complex support</li>
+
+ <li>Cache Coherency Unit driver</li>
+
+ <li>North Bridge Service driver</li>
+
+ <li>Updated Alpine HAL</li>
+
+ <li>Extended MSI support in GICv2 and GICv3 code</li>
+ </ul>
+
+ <p>Additional work, such as an MSI-X driver and full Ethernet
+ support, is currently undergoing community review on Phabricator.</p>
+
+ <p>The multi-user SMP system is stable and fully working, along with
+ the 1G and 10G Ethernet links.</p>
+
+ <p>The interrupt management code has been adjusted to work with the
+ new INTRNG framework on both ARM32 and ARM64.</p>
