#################################
Overview
********
The Broadcom bcm958402m2_a72 board utilizes the Viper BCM58402_A72 SoC
to provide support for PCIe offload engine functionality.
Hardware
********
The bcm958402m2_a72 is a PCIe card with the following physical features:
* PCIe Gen4 interface
* RS232 UART (optionally populated)
* JTAG (optionally populated)
Supported Features
==================

Programming and Debugging
*************************
Flashing
========
The flash on board is not supported by Zephyr at this time.
Board is booted over PCIe interface.
Debugging
=========
The bcm958402m2_a72 board includes pads for soldering a JTAG connector.
Zephyr applications running on the Cortex-A72 core can also be tested
by observing UART console output.
