@Igor I have been using uboot V2025.04(2025-snuxi) on orangepi zero2w since 19 April and everything is works as it should no problems. https://github.com/ZjemCiKolege/build/commit/b3eaeb7d2059c3429951da7e6022c9528237c0e7

And I have ruled out that this is Armbian OS problem.

Thanks for this!

Just checked in and am surprised this thread has gotten so much attention. Glad people have been able to use and modify the image as needed. Huge shoutout to @Nick A for all the support he's giving in here

Rockchip devices generally cannot be bricked. Short the maskrom pin i showed you and reflash. You can build the image from source or from here https://github.com/armbian/community/releases

Try looking for hints here: https://jellyfin.org/docs/general/post-install/transcoding/hardware-acceleration/rockchip/ They use mali blobs for hw en-/decoding.

Hi, I was not expecting someone to debug some old experimental kernel just for me. I've trying to report bug, give back something to the community. It is not build problem, so Github says use forums for that. I've spent more than a week to have latest and greatest experimental kernel (6.14.5, 6.14.8) or not so experimental (6.12.9, 6.12.23, 6.12.30) with DKMS. Did many rebuilds, reinstalls and reflashes. I was using INSTALL_HEADERS=yes in CLI args or config. DKMS drivers (zfs and aic8800) does not work. I am suspecting that problem is in sunxi headers like reported month ago in github issue. There, the same DKMS driver works on same version on the kernel on RaspiOS where it was working. When that person tried to do it on Armbian it doesn't work. If I was skillful enough I would try to fix it by myself, but I am not. Therefore I am reporting this bug here.

30-40% of GH runners we use are on arm64 platform. Compilation work in all combinations. Yes. This was lying around. Allwinner should work the same, but *edge kernels are experimental, adjust expectations. You have all tools you need, but nobody will be debugging some old experimental kernel just for you. Hint: when you generate image from sources, enable kernel headers install (i think parameter is INSTALL_HEADER=yes), so you have the one that are matching your kernel. In repository, they are probably different / not compatible. I checked if it works for latest stable (the only target that is worth spending time) kernel on supported hardware (that was around my desk). Unsupported hardware running unsupported kernel - it is expected that things will be failing.

If I understood correctly, Github job is running on amd64 platform, your test is on rockchip kernel. I am talking about sunxi kernel. Latest sunxi kernel where zfs-dkms worked (on Allwinner H618) was 6.11.2-edge. My RK356x board is on the way, but it would be nice to make this small LonganPi-3H with H618 usable

This 100% works - we are even running daily automated tests on Bookworm, Jammy and Noble. https://github.com/armbian/os/actions/runs/15362508470/job/43232345405 Manual test on Rockchip64 (Bananapi M7) with 6.12.28-current, latest kernel from daily repository. System: https://paste.armbian.com/tiwisuhugi Here is build log:

seems like the config should be distinguishing by models, not by .. idk even what it is. let say config->OrangePi2->hardware->peripherals->i2c->i2's enumerate.

Hi, I could try to help with maintenance, but first we should find where the problem is. Even if we ignore aic8800 driver (I can confirm that when it is working it is indeed shiet and there are occasional USB disconnections of WLAN card), zfs-dkms still doesn't work. Latest version where both drivers were working was 6.11.2. Currently compiling 6.11.9 to see if there DKMS drivers work. I am suspecting that kernel headers for 6.12 and later kernels are to blame

Welcome to the club Perhaps you rather help us maintaining and fixing what is possible, so I would guide you away from things that are complete waste of time. Such as this. DKMS works on Armbian, but if this (shit) driver works, that is another question. In some cases it takes years before driver become usable ... while performance still sucks. https://docs.armbian.com/WifiPerformance/#xradio-xr819 AFAIK, there are no reliable driver for aic8800. Sorry for bringing bad news ...

All the kernel panic options that you have shown here occur on v6.12.23. It all happens randomly. I suspect that this may be due to the presence of broken (faulty) blocks on the memory device. It's easy to check this.If you connect the SD card via an adapter to a Linux computer: sudo fsck.ext4 /dev/sdX1

Sometimes panic is after reboot, sometimes is after few hours of uptime. Panic1 from the previous post is while doing apt update. 2nd was while compiling zfs-dkms and 3rd I don't rember. The same Noble image works on eMMC, without panic, for now. I'll try to reproduce it with another SD card.

When you have started the device on a new operating system image, does the kernel panic appear? After what action does the core panic?

Yes in overlays i2c3-ph is on system is i2c-1 on OZPI v2/3 boards on pins 3 and 5 So you can check connected devices on pins 3 and 5 i2cdetect -y 1

I had this plan on utilizing the Radxa Rock 5 ITX+ as a Moonlight client device to stream games from my desktop computer to my living room TV, and using my 8BitDo Ultimate controller to play. On paper, the board has all the bells and whistles needed to do it, but I am having trouble getting hardware decoding of H264 and/or HEVC to work as expected. From what I gather, I need mesa-vpu support, but the documentation I find is very scattered, and repositories that once held the needed resources are no longer available. I am currently running Armbian_25.DBhsHKsx.2.2_Rock-5-itx_bookworm_vendor_6.1.99_cinnamon-backported-mesa_desktop.img (build date 21st of February, 2025), downloaded from Armbian.com. Hardware decoding does however not work, despite it being marked with "backported mesa". I've been at this for two weeks now with different images, including Armbian and Radxa OS, even going so far as trying to build Armbian myself from scratch. The image I am currently using is however the most stable I have experienced so far. Am I missing something? How do I get hardware decoding to work? Edit: Link to armbianmonitor output

Good lords. i2c3-ph is actually i2c-1which is i2c-0 since it is on pin 3 and 5. LOL ! This is literally a total mess.

How to compile DKMS on the board? I am trying this for the past week without success and starting to go crazy... The last kernel which worked is 6.11.2. I tried with zfs-dkms (from apt's repositories and from manually build .deb from zfs git) and with aic8800 drivers. I've tried Bookworm image, tried Noble. Tried -current and -edge kernels. Tried many kernel revisions. Tried to build kernels (image & headers) with compile.sh with docker, without docker. Updated my x86 Debian to Trixie. Compilers are same on the build host and on the board: longanpi-3h# dpkg -l | grep -i gcc ii gcc 4:13.2.0-7ubuntu1 arm64 GNU C compiler ii gcc-13 13.3.0-6ubuntu2~24.04 arm64 GNU C compiler ii gcc-13-aarch64-linux-gnu 13.3.0-6ubuntu2~24.04 arm64 GNU C compiler for the aarch64-linux-gnu architecture ii gcc-13-base:arm64 13.3.0-6ubuntu2~24.04 arm64 GCC, the GNU Compiler Collection (base package) ... root@4585c06e2f54:/armbian# dpkg -l | grep -i gcc ii gcc 4:13.2.0-7ubuntu1 amd64 GNU C compiler ii gcc-13 13.3.0-6ubuntu2~24.04 amd64 GNU C compiler ii gcc-13-aarch64-linux-gnu 13.3.0-6ubuntu2~24.04cross1 amd64 GNU C compiler for the aarch64-linux-gnu architecture ii gcc-13-aarch64-linux-gnu-base:amd64 13.3.0-6ubuntu2~24.04cross1 amd64 GCC, the GNU Compiler Collection (base package) ... Or even better: Is it possible somehow to build those drivers on the host PC? 16x x86 CPUs are much, much faster than 4x A53.

Hi, I am not aware of the older Longan image. I've used it for a few months with OrangePi Zero3 image without kernel panics. I've collected few more kernel crashes on the same image (latest Ubuntu Noble freshly installed on SD card): apt update on USB WiFi, LAN still connected, DKMS aic8800 built, freshly reinstalled image While doing apt install zfs-dkms panic3:

I confirm that armbian-config has problem with add ovelay prefix to overlays= please look on: https://github.com/armbian/configng/issues/592 So i must add manually devices in amrbinaEnv.txt and for OZPI v3 to use I2C i have overlay_prefix=sun50i-h616 overlays=i2c3-ph

I assume should work with vendor. Maybe missing node in device tree. Maybe missing firmware blobs or same as above. Expected since neither SPI nor eMMC are present by default. Direct boot from NVMe isn't support by any Rockchip soc.

does anyone know how to get maskrom and uart on this rk3228a board from mxq pro 4k 5G since pushing the little button shows up as armlogic devices on device manager but the actual chip is rockchip and sorry for bad quality images
