Documenting the DC Hardware

Im expanding the documentation on my wiki --> http://www.radionerds.com/index.php/DreamCatcher Id like to get the hardware documented as much as possible..

NOTE: I recognize many of these items, however i need to know not only what they are, but if they have additional functionality, and are included in the Device Tree Template for Armbian, and if so what is the /sys/class or /dev location for its use..

Here is the Datasheet for the AllWinner A13 Chip, but we still need to know what was implemented in the DC

A13 Datasheet - v1.12 (2012-03-29).pdf.tgz (808.2 KB)

Essentially we need to document this board completely so more advanced integrations can be accomplished with it.

LEDS,
What are they designed to do, and what are the software interfaces?
- LED11/STATUS
- LED10/AGP3
- CHGLED

Misc items / Headers
- two pin header between power buttons marked “2 1” Possibly LIPO_BAT? Battery backup? battery power?
- Switch between the power buttons, marked
---- PD3
---- Auto Boot (auto boot on power up?)
- Two pin header marked CHG_IN
- JP1 Jumper pad

Main header pins
Can you define what these pins are for? of course some are obvious, but please confirm and state if there are other purposes for them. if there is a /sys/class for export or /dev use what is that?
