I would input that for a lot of the supported boards, systemd's size (runtime, specifically) is particularly unfriendly, especially to the boards with 512MB of RAM (or worse). Ignoring any other issues with it, this alone would be a disqualifying factor for embedded development.

I'll have one of these coming soon, if you need more hands testing. (I don't plan to run Armbian but I'm not averse to helping out for mainline.)

Ah, okay, thank you!

I've checked a few places, and noticed that the NanoPi NEO2 has had an upgrade to its CPU voltage regulator that does not seem to be reflected anywhere; the sunxi-linux wiki still reports that the regulator can provide only 1.1V, and I see no evidence of a regulator for the CPU in the device tree in the master mainline kernel branch. On the NEO2 V1.1, the CPU voltage regulator has been updated to provide GPIO-based voltage regulation, giving a selection of 1.1V (the same as the original board) or 1.3V (this setting is new). I'm quite new to kernel/device tree modifications, so I was wondering if anyone else was aware of this, and, if nobody is willing to incorporate it themselves, how I would go about adding support for the selectable voltage so that the board can be clocked higher than ~850MHz (according to sunxi-linux wiki).

I can confirm this with a 5.3.1 mainline kernel, and success with the given workaround. (I'm not using Armbian, but in this case it does not matter.)
