+Arm MPS2 boards (``mps2-an385``, ``mps2-an505``, ``mps2-an511``, ``mps2-an521``)
+================================================================================
+
+These board models all use Arm M-profile CPUs.
+
+The Arm MPS2 and MPS2+ dev boards are FPGA based (the 2+ has a bigger
+FPGA but is otherwise the same as the 2). Since the CPU itself
+and most of the devices are in the FPGA, the details of the board
+as seen by the guest depend significantly on the FPGA image.
+
+QEMU models the following FPGA images:
+
+``mps2-an385``
+ Cortex-M3 as documented in ARM Application Note AN385
+``mps2-an511``
+ Cortex-M3 'DesignStart' as documented in AN511
+``mps2-an505``
+ Cortex-M33 as documented in ARM Application Note AN505
+``mps2-an521``
+ Dual Cortex-M33 as documented in Application Note AN521
+
+Differences between QEMU and real hardware:
+
+- AN385 remapping of low 16K of memory to either ZBT SSRAM1 or to
+ block RAM is unimplemented (QEMU always maps this to ZBT SSRAM1, as
+ if zbt_boot_ctrl is always zero)
+- QEMU provides a LAN9118 ethernet rather than LAN9220; the only guest
+ visible difference is that the LAN9118 doesn't support checksum
+ offloading
