Expand the MIPS Makefile help text to list generic board names, generic
defconfigs, and legacy defconfigs which have been converted to generic
and are still usable.
Here's a snippet of the new "make ARCH=mips help" output:
...
If you are targeting a system supported by generic kernels you may
configure the kernel for a given architecture target like so:
{micro32,32,64}{r1,r2,r6}{el,}_defconfig <BOARDS="list of boards">
Where BOARDS is some subset of the following:
boston
ni169445
ranchu
sead-3
xilfpga
Specifically the following generic default configurations are
supported:
32r1_defconfig - Build generic kernel for MIPS32 r1
32r1el_defconfig - Build generic kernel for MIPS32 r1 little endian
32r2_defconfig - Build generic kernel for MIPS32 r2
32r2el_defconfig - Build generic kernel for MIPS32 r2 little endian
32r6_defconfig - Build generic kernel for MIPS32 r6
32r6el_defconfig - Build generic kernel for MIPS32 r6 little endian
64r1_defconfig - Build generic kernel for MIPS64 r1
64r1el_defconfig - Build generic kernel for MIPS64 r1 little endian
64r2_defconfig - Build generic kernel for MIPS64 r2
64r2el_defconfig - Build generic kernel for MIPS64 r2 little endian
64r6_defconfig - Build generic kernel for MIPS64 r6
64r6el_defconfig - Build generic kernel for MIPS64 r6 little endian
micro32r2_defconfig - Build generic kernel for microMIPS32 r2
micro32r2el_defconfig - Build generic kernel for microMIPS32 r2 little endian
The following legacy default configurations have been converted to
generic and can still be used:
sead3_defconfig - Build 32r2el_defconfig BOARDS=sead-3
sead3micro_defconfig - Build micro32r2el_defconfig BOARDS=sead-3
xilfpga_defconfig - Build 32r2el_defconfig BOARDS=xilfpga

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
