Updated the kernel to the latest version from LineageOS [1] (branch
`cm-14.1`), copied their configuration file and updated it according
to `pmbootstrap kconfig check`. Previous kernel was from `cm-12.1`
branch.
Fixed firmware package. Switched firmware source to
LineageOS/TheMuppets and install only the Wi-Fi firmware, but into the
correct directory. Previously all available firmware was simply copied
into wrong directories.

This device runs on linux-postmarketos-rockchip which at the moment of
writing is 5.13.0 with (only) 6 patches applied, so close-to mainline.
I personally use 2 of these devices with postmarketOS installed daily as
my homeserver setup and it has worked really well. It's also a good
target to run Plasma Bigscreen on as a TV setupbox
When kernel variants were renamed in
69cd6ff843
these dtb vars were forgotten, making it impossible to boot a kernel
build with `pmbootstrap build linux-postmarketos-exynos4`, no dtb is
appended to the zImage and we get stuck on samsungs boot logo.
Merged in mainline since 5.9-rc2-next-grate:
- all previously applied patches specific for Tegra and Nexus 7
New features, not merged yet in mainline (only in -next-grate):
- improved power management
- implemented USB OTG
New configuration options
- enable F2FS support (incl. compression), which leads to prolonging
eMMC life
Tested on E1565.

There's a generic udev rule to set group ownership of backlights to
'video', but it only runs on the ADD action, which seems to be too
late(?) since the backlight device is never owned by 'video' on boot.
This rule will run on CHANGE too, which might be overkill but seems to
get the job done. It's now possible to set the backlight brightness on
the PBP as a normal user.
Upgrade to 5.13.0 mainline and disable staging drivers.

This adds a very basic openrc runscript that sets the power state on
/dev/nvme0 to level 2, which seems(?) to be the lowest operational power
state based on some cursory internet searching (and querying the nvme
drives I have, Samsung EVO and Pro)
The drive path is hard coded, but could be made configurable later on. I
basically wanted to get something in pmaports quickly, since this power
stuff is a major source of instability for me and probably others too
who add nvme drives to this device.
1 does fit the lock screen better, but 1.2 works better overall.
Some things are tiny with 1. 1.2 fits the lock screen decently and
still provides decently sized user interface elements.

On top of the firmware we already have, we also need device-specific
modem firmware. Use script from firmware-motorola-potter(credit goes to
Sireesh Kodali). Also imitate the logic in firmware-motorola-potter.
The Huawei Ascend G7 is based on Qualcomm MSM8916 and therefore makes
use of linux-postmarketos-qcom-msm8916 as a close-to-mainline kernel.
Initially supported features:
- USB
- Storage (eMMC, SD card)
- Display
- Touchscreen, Buttons, Vibrator
- Notification LED
- WiFi/Bluetooth
- Accelerometer, Magnetometer, Proximity
- Audio
- NFC
The modem needs more work to work around strange Huawei firmware mess.
Note that the Huawei shipped an outdated firmware version that does
not support booting aarch64 kernels (like used in this device port).
However, the device does not verify firmware signatures so it is
possible to flash firmware from other devices. This is mostly
described in the wiki, but unfortunately it's quite complex.
However, the aarch64 version of linux-postmarketos-qcom-msm8916
receives much more testing so I would like to avoid adding more
armv7 MSM8916 devices unless absolutely necessary.
For pointercal:
Screen dimension 720x1280
Touchscreen dimension (reported by evtest) 1100x1900
720/1100*65536 = ~42896
1280/1900*65536 = ~44151
Offset doesn't seem to be needed.

AsteroidOS uses this config file to determine how the UI should look
(e.g. a round or a square screen), and if some things like Wi-Fi are
supported. Upstream auto generates this config file, but it seems so
simple and small that I think it's better for us to just ship the file
next to the APKBUILD

Gummiboot was dropped from Alpine. Switch to grub, which is what we use
for tablet-x86uefi too.
In contrary to tablet-x86uefi, run the grub-mkimage command directly
inside the device package:
* This avoids creating another confusing grub-x86 like package (looks
like the x86 version of alpine's grub package, as it's the case with
grub-efi-x86, but actually it is just the result of grub-mkimage).
* In contrary to grub-efi-x86, the resulting efi file is not shared
across several devices.
* It's consistent with uboot mkimage commands, which we also run in
device packages.

works on armv7 as well: touch, wifi, usb networking etc.
SWRast (gallium) was not enabled but is needed because the device

The AP6359SA is a BCM4359 SDIO-based Wi-Fi/Bluetooth module that PINE64
sells specifically for the ROCKPro64 device. This commit starts a
firmware package to support it specifically, while others can later add
firmware for other modules sold for the device. Also add this package as
a nonfree subpackage dependency in the ROCKPro64 device APKBUILD.
I was unable to find a suitable license for the firmware blobs, so until
we find a suitable repository containing all of the required files by
the module with a license included, or contact the vendor directly,
let's use LibreELEC's repository without a license for now.

Downstream kernel is outdated and no longer maintained by us. Thus,
removed. The linux-xiaomi-beryllium-mainline kernel is removed because
its superseded by the common sdm845 kernel and is no longer needed.
So far the debug-shell in initfs works. The device uses dynamic
partitions, so that has to be figured out to get a proper rootfs.
One thing to look out for is that mount_subpartitions task in initfs
hangs, so pmos_boot=sth was added to kernel cmdline to skip it. This is
also related to dynamic partitions, anyway.

There is already samsung-a3ulte in community, and the devices actually
share the same kernel, device tree, and basically everything except
firmware. We just need separate firmware packages because Samsung uses
different secure boot certificates on a3lte and a3ulte.
They also share the same wiki page which suggests installation using
the pre-built images now, so having pre-built images only for
samsung-a3ulte is quite confusing for users.
The situation is similar as for samsung-a5ulte and samsung-a5lte
which also are both in community already.
This updates the current commit and refactor APKBUILD to
more modern way of writing downstream kernels. Also move to main/ to fit
other linux-postmarketos-* kernels.
Right now the "bq-picmt" device port is quite confusing.
It's actually for the same device as "bq-paella", which is in community
and uses the mainline kernel, except that it uses the downstream kernel.
Having the downstream kernel packaged is useful for testing sometimes,
but otherwise the device package is completely unsupported.
The mainline port works much better. The downstream port should only
be used if you know what you are doing (e.g. because you want to test
if something is working on downstream but not mainline) and therefore
it should not show up in "pmbootstrap init" by default.
Move the device package to unmaintained to implement that.
Also, add an "# Unmaintained: ..." comment that will be displayed
in "pmbootstrap init" if the device is selected anyway.
This is required by some software, e.g. bluez/gnome to set some ACLs on
/dev/rfkill (see #904). While probably nobody will notice on the
downstream kernels (as we don't have any proper software there anyways)
it's definitely needed on mainline-ish kernels. Surprisingly only one
kernel has broken by enabling this option (linux-sony-tulip) which I've
patched up.
linux-postmarketos-qcom-sdm660 did not break by enabling this option,
but required linux4.17-gcc10-extern_YYLOC_global_declaration.patch to
build again, so this was fixed too.

This is a generic package for devices which use x86_64 CPU and 32-bit
EFI. Most distributions don't provide installation for 32-bit EFI, so
installation is not user-friendly.
Actually, these tablets deserve device-specific packages (I am going to
make ones for ASUS VivoTab Note 8 and ASUS Transformer Book T100TA), but
this one includes basic functions and can be booted on any 32-bit EFI
tablet with disabled secure boot and missing device-specific package.
I guess 32-bit EFI with 64-bit CPU is Intel's "feature" and AMD doesn't
have such stuff, so this package will be installed only on devices with
Intel CPU, unlike device-tablet-x64uefi which can be installed on any
x86_64 PC. So i decided to enable some Intel specific things (userspace
GPU stuff and alsa-ucm-conf).
I used for reference device-tablet-x64uefi and
device-trekstor-surftabduow1 packages. This package also can be used as
a reference for device-specific ones.

Port based on an unofficial LineageOS port
from https://www.los-legacy.de/17.1/zerofltexx, using kernel from https://github.com/Exynos7420/android_kernel_samsung_exynos7420/
What works:
- Kernel boots
- Display and touch input (tested with Weston)
- USB networking
Note: I removed camera support in kernel config for now, as there were related kernel crashes.
Wifi doesn't work either yet because the firmware dependencies/paths need to be fixed first.
The modprobe.conf is not necessary on those devices because they already
load the panel module using deviceinfo_modules_initfs. Let's skip the
modprobe.conf in that case so we don't need to add all panels in two places.
Simply disabling FIMC IS does not work however due to compilation
errors and a null pointer dereference. 01-fix-FIMC-IS-disabling.patch
takes care of this.
As with other exynos devices some additional things had to be disabled
to make the kernel compile after FIMC IS had been disabled,
specifically:
CONFIG_CAMERA_EEPROM
CONFIG_VIDEO_EXYNOS_MIPI_CSIS
CONFIG_LEDS_MAX77803
Apart from that we also have:
02-netfilter-symbols.patch, which fixes another compilation error.
03-usb_gadget-set-random-rndis-host-MAC-address-to-prev.patch (taken
from another device) which prevents host mac address being set to
00:00:00:00:00.
