+
+The Gateworks Newport Family of Single Board Computers has been announced end of life. 
+
+Software support will be provided for a limited time. 
+
+Gateworks will continue to support the existing versions of the boot
+firmware, Ubuntu rootfs, Linux kernel, and OpenWrt specifically these
+versions:
+- !Cavium/Marvell BDK from their SDK-10.1.1.0 (early boot firmware)
+- U-Boot v2021.01-newport
+- Linux v5.15.15-newport
+- Ubuntu Jammy (22.04) based rootfs
+- OpenWrt v24.01 (based on 5.15 kernel)
+- Gateworks System Controller v61
+
+There are issues presented with the 6.1 kernel that make cns30xx
+difficult or impossible to support without help from !Marvell/Cavium
+which will not happen due to their dropping of support for this SoC.
+Regarding OpenWrt specifically, support for the cns30xx has been
+removed upstream due to these kernel issues.
