Description This patch has been mainlined in the kernel for both v6.6.37 and somewhere in v6.9.y branch too.. There are several reports that it broke rk3328 pinctrl and, as the worst side effect, eMMC controller does not work anymore on rk3318/rk3328 (reports on the forums: this, this and this) I identified the single line that is causing the issue; reverting the single change fixes the bad pinctrl behaviour in my case.

Arduino has recently announced the Opta micro PLC with industrial IoT capabilities adding yet another solution to the Arduino Pro family. Arduino used to focus on the hobbyist crowd, but with the launch of the Arduino Pro family in 2020 starting with the Portenta H7 board, the company switched its main focus to the more profitable enterprise market. Since then they’ve launched several other boards designed in-house, and last year started collaborating with the introduction of the Arduino WisGate Edge LoRaWAN gateways based on RAKwireless hardware. The Arduino Opta is another one of those collaborations as it was designed together with Finder, who calls their devices PLR (…

Description Refresh kernel config to match fenix 1.6.4. This enables CONFIG_W1_SLAVE_THERM which was enabled on fenix as well. On bookworm, and also possibly on newer version of ubuntu, systemd starts all of the services present on first boot. Making the /etc/machine-id file empty ensures that machine id is still initialized on first-boot, while other services are not started automatically. This also seems to be observed by alex3d as well as reported in #6264 . However I was not able to reproduce the same issue on any of the other boards I have. Hence I have currently only handled it for meson-s4t7 family. This also makes the previous hack of masking chrony-wait.service …

Description Bump rockchip64 edge kernel to v6.10. Includes the rk3328 gpio2 bank fix from https://github.com/armbian/build/pull/6974 Minor changes have been needed to bring patches from 6.9 to 6.10 (notably, very small rework of the overlay compilation). @brentr rk3308 now has a mainline audio codec driver. It breaks several patches that previously introduced a driver and manipulated it to "sync with BSP" and convert to "component". This commit contains all the modifications I did to allow the kernel to compile cleanly, but the result may not provide working audio or may not provide the same functionalities as before, hence rk3308 audio section requires some more separa…

Description After today's complete stall of primary Ubuntu infrastructure I switched to mirrors in order to rebuild caches. First problem is that often mirrors for amd64 and others are placed on different locations. This part is covered but it fails for riscv64 architecture. In order to cover that too, its better to have more generic variable CUSTOM_UBUNTU_MIRROR_PORTS and have everything that is not amd64 there. By quick research - if mirror hosts arm64 it also hosts risv64 and vice versa. Second problem - if caches are re-generated with 3rd party mirrors, release lists remain with those values. How to approach to that problem? We want that - at least our builds - are a…

Description Bumping U-boot to 2024.01-rc5 for Allwinner boards. There were some defconfig patches that were failing, I have migrated them to board config file using post_uboot_config_target hook function. This has resulted into removal of several patches. There are still some defconfig patches left, I will move them as and when needed. Apart from that, updated crust support patches for Allwinner H3 as few of them had patch application failure. As U-boot now has AXP313 support, I have removed the patch for the same and have migrated Bigtreetech to use the upstream driver. How Has This Been Tested?
