This week's updates center on expanded board support, Rockchip and Qualcomm platform maturation, and build system refinements.

New hardware coverage grew across multiple SoC families, with the Lubancat 5IO (RK3588), KickPi K3B, Mellow Fly C5 3D printer board, and community support for the Orange Pi Zero 3W (Allwinner A733). The Arduino UNO Q advanced to mainline 7.1 on the edge kernel and gained desktop hardware acceleration via Mesa pinned to Trixie backports, while the BeagleY-AI received ISP, IMX219, and VPAC patches. Companion fixes addressed NVMe/SD boot conflicts on the NanoPi M6, Ethernet on the BigTreeTech CB1, and AIC8800 UART Bluetooth on Orange Pi A733 hardware.

Rockchip work concentrated on the YY3588 and CM3588-NAS platforms, with device tree cleanups, a corrected HDMI-RX detect GPIO, and quieter DRM logging for dw-hdmi-qp and dw-dp bridges. Newer bl31, bl32, and DDR blobs landed for RK3576, and stale U-Boot was refreshed fleet-wide to resolve a SWIG build break. On the Qualcomm side, SC8280XP was refactored from a board to a family configuration, and the Radxa Dragon Q8B gained UFS image provisioning, QDL flashing support via the imager, and a mainline 7.1 edge target for the Q6A variant.

Build and tooling improvements included a new show-extensions CLI command, a switch from the adduser suite to useradd/groupadd during first login, non-interactive Dpkg conffile handling in chroot, and clang compatibility fixes for carried Rockchip64 patches and SpacemiT RTL8852BS builds. The mainline kernel target advanced to 7.2-rc2, and MGLRU was enabled across sunxi, sunxi64, and sun60iw2 kernel configurations.
