Changes upstream rarely match exactly what is happening this far downstream. So let's take control by moving the old and patching a new. This gives us more freedom to make edits when we want or need to and avoid errors. View the full article

Description The issue When using ./compile.sh rewrite-kernel-config and then running the menuconfig with ./compile.sh kernel-config, just exiting and saving without any manual changes, the kernel config may still change. This is because rewrite-kernel-config does force some kernel options without any additional checks e.g. for dependencies. Using the config menu with kernel-config does those checks automatically and solves all dependencies. Example: Using ./compile.sh kernel-config on linux-rockchip64-edge.config (e.g. with BOARD=nanopi-r5c), the option CONFIG_DEBUG_KERNEL=y is automatically selected, since it is a dependency for CONFIG_EXPERT=y, which is selected in this kernel config as well. But then, ./compile.sh rewrite-kernel-config forces CONFIG_DEBUG_KERNEL to disabled. However, this breaks the dependency for CONFIG_EXPERT=y, which is still enabled. In consequence, CONFIG_DEBUG_KERNEL will be set to =y next time anyone runs ./compile.sh kernel-config on this config. The goal Doing a kernel-config (with no manual changes, just start and exit with saving) or a rewrite-kernel-config should lead to the exact same config file. It should be consistent. The solution This PR tries to solve this in the following way: Save the config right after the forced configs were applied Do an oldconfig after forced configs were applied to have kernel make solve any issues (will add ~3 seconds on each rewrite-kernel-config) Let the user see what was changed by kernel make so changes can be made accordingly Changes in forced kernel options by armbian-kernel.sh Set DEBUG_INFO_NONE=y instead of DEBUG_INFO=n since the latter is not configurable Remove GDB_SCRIPTS=n since DEBUG_INFO_NONE=y already implies this Example output in build log (for rk3588-legacy kernel): [🚸] Forced kernel options introduced misconfigurations or missing dependencies! [ Please re-run rewrite-kernel-config ] [🚸] If this warning persists [ please remove dependent options using kernel-config or adapt your custom_kernel_config hooks ] [🐛] In some cases, the issue might also be [ misconfigured options in armbian_kernel_config hooks ] [🔨] -DEBUG_INFO_NONE y [🔨] -MODULE_COMPRESS_NONE y [🔨] DEBUG_KERNEL n -> y [🔨] EXPERT n -> y [🚸] See options above which have been changed automatically [ to solve dependencies and/or misconfigurations ] As you can see, some of the forced kernel options did not have the expected results since kernel make had to change these to solve dependencies and make the config sane. Warning: This will output lots of changes on the first time it runs. Re-run it, the second run will output only the relevant changes. Some kernel configs will have to be adapted to solve the issues which are output in the warnings (like above), or armbian-kernel.sh might have to be adapted a bit linux-rockchip64-edge.config is an example, I just ran rewrite-kernel-config on this and kernel make did its magic. Overall, this should lead to more sane kernel configs. How Has This Been Tested?

Description As per subject, bump edge kernel to 6.8 for rockchip 32 bit family. Also include a patch to handle an apparently missing Makefile in tools/cgroup directory which makes the compilation process crash when cleaning the tools kernel subdirectory. In case other families are bumped to kernel 6.8, it should be copied as well or moved into misc directory and applied somewhere until kernel people fix that.

Description As described in the forum topic https://forum.armbian.com/topic/35677-tinkerboard-not-booting-after-updates/#comment-185896, upgrading on Asus Tinkerboard breaks the bootloader and prevents the entire system to reboot. As side effect - but not yet reported by anyone - should also break other rk3288 and rk322x board bootloaders.
