Bananapi m2p HDMI CEC

Hello, I have a question about HDMI CEC in Armbian Stretch, is it possible to run this? After command lsmod I have module hdmi_hw_cec, I install libcec and cec-utils packages but cec-client still show "not devices". I read in sunxi wiki http://linux-sunxi.org/Linux_mainlining_effort#Status_Matrix that HDMI CEC should be active in revision 4.17, so when we can expect this version? :)

libcec and cec-utils will probably never work with mainline kernel CEC infrastructure. You need cec-ctl from v4l-utils to work with that.

 

BTW, if you have 4.17 kernel or higher, make sure that you have "/dev/cec0" device present, otherwise some kernel features might not be enabled. Additionally, it seems that CEC doesn't work on some H3 boards but it does on others. Probably because this feature was never supported in BSP kernel and board maker couldn't really test it. I really don't know if it works on BPi M2+.

Thank you jernej. I tested CEC in OpenElec (http://forum.banana-pi.org/t/openelec-kodi-16-0-xbmc-on-the-banana-pi-bpi-m2-project/1600) with kernel 3.4.113 and it's work. Now I'm testing 4.14.78-sunxi  and I have cec0 in /dev/. I installed v4l-utils and in cec-ctl:

Unfortunatelly CEC still not working. If I try running cec-follower:
 

root@bananapim2plus:~# cec-follower -m
cec-follower SHA                   : not available

        Logical Address Mask       : 0x0000
        CEC Version                : 2.0
        Logical Addresses          : 0 (Allow RC Passthrough)


FAIL: missing logical address(es), use cec-ctl to configure this

Does anybody have an idea how CEC running?
