No Ethernet or Wifi on sun8i-h3-orangepi-zero-plus2.dtb

[Ken Restivo]

My Armbian paste is at https://paste.armbian.com/yamakinoce

 

This is an OrangePi Zero Plus, with an H3, not an H5 or an H2.

 

I see all kinds of problems here but don't know how to fix them. It seems the DTB is just wrong for this board.  For one, there are interrupts showing up in /proc/interrupts for HDMI and LCD, but this physical board has *neither* of those.

 

It has an Ethernet PHY but neither the kernel nor uboot see it. It also has a Wifi but the kernel does not see that either.

 

Does a correct DTB exist for this board? What is its name? I vaguely remember a couple ways to force the kernel and uboot to use a different DTB than what it calculates, but I would need to know if such a DTB exists in the first place.

 

Thanks!

The Orange Pi Zero+ is community maintained.  That means, there is no guarantee that the device even gets boot-tested.  Going through git log I don't see much activity related to this board for the last two years, so quite possibly this is very stale.

 

Current maintainer is @schwar3kat.  Maybe he can tell us more if he can reproduce your issue.

 

If you are able to test this board and fix issues to improve support for it in Armbian, your contributions are more than welcome.  I do not have the board and am not aware of anyone who owns it.

So you say you have and Orange PI Zero Plus, but you have tagged this post as Orange PI Zero Plus2 H3. (Which are two completely different boards). So the first question is what actual board do you have (I know that Orange PIs board names are very confusing).  And then what build are you testing?
