qrtr-ns is now part of the Linux kernel (as of version 5.9), so
there is no need to start it in userspace anymore. It does not seem
to be needed (or working) on downstream either.
linux-postmarketos-qcom-msm8996 is the only mainline kernel which
is still on < 5.9. In preparation to make the qrtr dependency optional
for rmtfs, let's explicitly enable qrtr-ns for MSM8996 devices to avoid
causing regressions.
Update to kernel 5.9 with the following changes:
* Change tri-state key to macro keys instead of 'A', 'B' and 'C' keys.
[ci:skip-build]: already built successfully in CI
Initial support for Sony Xperia XA (codename: sony-tuba). Builds, can be
flashed, ssh connection through usb works, display works, touchscreen works,
no wifi or anything else.
According to the wiki pages, some interfaces can't be built for the
armhf architecture. This device is configured to armhf but it actually
supports armv7 architecture. Tested with a samsung-i9300.
This new version:
- Upgrades device config from upstream to v25
- Fixes a problem using modesetting driver on Xorg (lightdm
was broken because it now uses Xorg)
- Override GDK to use GLES (change from upstream Purism)
Replace the old downstream port with a new aarch64 port running the
linux-postmarketos-qcom-msm8916 close-to-mainline(TM) kernel.
Most of the functionality is working:
- USB Network
- Storage (eMMC, SD card)
- Display, brightness control
- Touchscreen, buttons
- IMU (accelerometer+gyroscope)
- Notification LED
- Sound (Speaker, Headphones, Microphones)
- WiFi, Bluetooth
- Modem (SMS, voice calls, mobile data)
Coming soon (hopefully): Battery/Charging, USB-OTG (not working yet)
There are many variants of the device, so more changes to handle
differences between them may be needed in the future. For now,
the only relevant difference is the required modem firmware:
- wt88047 (global variant)
- wt86047 (China variant)
... have different kind of modems and they do not seem to work with
the firmware of the other one. The way this is handled in this device
package is that there is a separate kernel variant for both of them.
All other required firmware can be shared, and therefore there is no
differentiation needed when using the kernel variant without modem.
I renamed "wingtech-wt88047" to "xiaomi-wt88047".
My reasoning for that is the following:
- Wingtech is the ODM (original design manufacturer), they designed the
hardware and (probably) manufactured it. But postmarketOS port applies
to the combination of both hardware and firmware, and the firmware was
at least partially provided by Xiaomi.
- wt88047 looks lonely with the "wingtech" vendor, when all other Xiaomi
devices use "xiaomi", even though many from them were probably also
designed by Wingtech.
- We don't use the ODM hardware name for other devices either, e.g.
"wileyfox-crackling" would be "longcheer-l8150" with the same approach.
I think the port is better visible as "xiaomi-wt88047" (too bad Xiaomi
seemingly did not have a proper codename for this device...)
In preparation for adding mainline device port for Xiaomi Redmi 2
(wt88047), remove the downstream device port. It's still armhf
which makes it clear that it hasn't been tested for a long time.
The mainline port has many more features, also it is aarch64, which
is not compatible with the downstream kernel.
Actually the display has been working in initramfs since MR 1261
(device-bq-paella: enable display and touchscreen on boot).
We should make it explicit in deviceinfo.
device-motorola-ocean: Add support for both downstream and mainline
kernel
device-motorola-ocean: Update dependency for downstream kernel
The dependency mentioned is wcnss-wlan.

Device package changes:
- Replace ALSA configs with dependency (soc-sprd-audio-sc8830)
- Add reboot-mode as dependency
Kernel package changes:
- Use dtbtool-sprd instead of dtbtool
- Move code and device tree to external repo
- Add patch for GCC10
- Add patches for framebuffer
This Patch is needed, because in the kernel the audio from the cpu to the headset gets turned around. We need to turn this around again.
Please revert this if there is a fixed kernel.
This adds a Finnish/Swedish key map for the Nokia n900.
The same keymap is used for Finnish and Swedish.
This makes the keyboard work in the console. To fix the
XkbLayout other changes are needed to pmbootstrap.

- E1565 is original "grouper" and it's for modern devices similar to
tilapia
- PM269 is earlier produced Nexuses with different PMIC (not very often
seen)
