strictly speaking this is the wrong question: it *is* a Cortex A7. if it was "compatible" that would imply that it was some sort of clone, which it's not. allwinner are licensees of ARM cores, including the Cortex A7. > Does it do hardware virtualization, http://www.arm.com/products/processors/cortex-a/cortex-a7.php apparently yes. which is pretty amazing. _______________________________________________ arm mailing list [email protected] https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/arm
