Yeah, and in all cases, we won't be wrong. While if a new SoCs comes out which is part of the sun9i (let's say A842), you'll have to select an option that states that it is for the A80. The list will be confusing for the user and/or a pain to maintain for us. > > Such a person would know that the A80 is part of the sun9i family if > > it has some knowledge of the Allwinner SocS.

So there's a good > chance that a user knows "A80" but not "sun9i". Good thing we do have a wiki page just for that then. http://linux-sunxi.org/Allwinner_SoC_Family#Comparison_table > And last I heard the sunXi designations are a bit unreliable since > Allwinner renumbered them differently (is the A20 a sun7i or a sun8i). It might have been both to Allwinner. It's always been sun7i for us.
