Hacking b2g on Raspberry Pi

b2g on the Raspberry Pi is still very much a work in progress. Eventually a nice compability matrix will be posted. But for now, the worst bugs to watch out for are
* graphics are barely functional. b2g can allocate video memory and submit jobs to the GPU, but there are numerous glitches in the graphics pipeline that result in distorted screen contents. {{bug|1072138}} {{bug|1072140}}* the GL stack is somewhat crashy. {{bug|1072145}}* page-flipping has been disabled to work a hang bug. The workaround hurts gfx perf and results in glitchier rendering. The underlying bug is most likely another symptom of this [https://github.com/raspberrypi/firmware/issues/315 github issue].* the output resolution of the RPi is artificially limited to 480p for the time being. This restriction will soon be lifted after an upgrade of the GPU driver.{{bug|1072148}}
* Wi-Fi dongles have not yet been tested. Most likely they don't work yet.
* audio output has not been tested. It may not work.
