## Notes about the hardware
1. Cavium connected *GPIO10* to a global reset line.
It's unclear which chips are connected, but at least the PHY and SATA chips
are connected.
2. The 4 QLMs can be configured using DIP switches (SW1). That means only a
subset of of the available connectors is working at time.
3. The boot source can be configure using DIP switches (SW1).
4. The core and system clock frequency can be configured using DIP switches
(SW3 / SW2).
5. The JTAG follows Cavium's own protocol. Support for it is missing in
OpenOCD. You have to use ARMs official hardware and software.
