+# Cadence IP Support Branch
+
+This branch will be used to contribute code to support Cadence
+hardware IP for AArch64-based platforms.
+
+## edk2-staging branch owners
+* Scott Telford <stelford@cadence.com>
+
+## Introduction 
+
+Cadence develops a variety of peripheral IP modules suitable for ARM
+SoC architectures. This branch is intended to provide a staging area
+for drivers and libraries developed to support Cadence peripherals
+that may be incorporated into various SoC architectures from other
+vendors, for later integration into the appropriate EDK2
+platforms. Initially, the focus will be support for the Cadence PCIe
+4.0 Root Port. For internal development and testing purposes, an EDK2
+platform has been developed for a minimal AArch64 system
+configuration, comprising a single Cortex-A53 processor, GIC-500,
+NIC-400, Cadence PCIe Root Port, and Cadence UART. This will be
+included in the branch to provide an example of driver/platform
+integration.
+
+## Related Modules
+The following modules are related to this branch:
+* CadencePkg   - Package containing Cadence-specific drivers and libraries
+* MdeModulePkg - Package containing generic drivers relevant to Cadence peripheral IP
-- 
2.2.2

Hi Scott, thanks for this. Looking forward to seeing it.

Andrew, Mike - for what it's worth, I'm happy to do the mechanics here
unless there are any objections.

Oh, and it's usually a good idea to cc maintainers of existing
packages you intend to work on. For MdeModulePkg, this is
 Feng Tian <feng.tian@intel.com>
 Star Zeng <star.zeng@intel.com> (from Maintainers.txt),
and if creating any new packages (as you are), probably cc the
stewards as well (we don't always spot all emails that hit the list)
 Andrew Fish <afish@apple.com>
 Michael D Kinney <michael.d.kinney@intel.com>
 myself.

Yes, we could do with adding this to the edk2-staging master branch
README.

Best Regards,

Leif

Looks good to me.

Apologies for delay - I've now pushed this to cadence-aarch64 in
edk2-staging.

I deleted one trailing space on line above before committing.
