Prepare for better device categorization by moving everything to testing
subdir first.
[skip-ci]: chicken-egg problem: passing pmaports CI depends on pmbootstrap MR
depends on this MR
Related: postmarketos#16
All device ports have been changed in one of the previous commits,
so do one pkgrel bump for all of them using:
$ pmbootstrap pkgrel_bump device-*
[ci:ignore-count]
Most devices do not need to set any of these variables.
directfb can now automatically detect touchscreens, calibration is
only needed for resistive touchscreens and dev_keyboard is unused.
Automatically done using:
- sed -i '/deviceinfo_dev_keyboard=""/d' device-*/deviceinfo
- sed -i '/deviceinfo_dev_touchscreen=""/d' device-*/deviceinfo
- sed -i '/deviceinfo_dev_touchscreen_calibration=""/d' device-*/deviceinfo
The downstream kernel doesn't provide a separate dtb file,
but the experimental mainline kernel does.
Previously, the deviceinfo specified a dtb file for both kernels,
and pmbootstrap ignored the missing file for downstream kernel.
pmbootstrap now errors when the dtb file is missing, so this
fixes the downstream kernel by specifying a dtb file only for
the upstream kernel.
We don't need to append the dtb to the kernel image in all cases, with
e.g. the u-boot bootloader we can load the dtb seperately from the
kernel image. Introduce a new variable deviceinfo_append_dtb, if set to
"true", append the dtb, otherwise just copy the dtb file to the boot
partition.
Fixes#260

This is tested to boot on google-crosshatch, following these
instructions:
$ pmbootstrap init, choose the mainline kernel
$ pmbootstrap install --no-fde
$ pmbootstrap initfs hook_add debug-shell
(enter fastboot mode on the device)
$ fastboot set_active a
$ fastboot flash dtbo_a ~/.local/var/pmbootstrap/chroot_rootfs_google-crosshatch/boot/dtbo-google-crosshatch-mainline.img
$ pmbootstrap flasher boot
And you should get telnet after a while. This kernel takes a long time
to build, so [skip ci]. I can confirm it builds locally.
Note that this patch adds the mainline dtb path to deviceinfo. But the
parameter gets ignored on the downstream kernel, so it's fine to keep it
in the shared deviceinfo.
Mainlining this device is work in progress, details at:
