Add common.get_upstream_branch() and use it instead of assuming "master"
as upstream branch.
Example: user forks v20.05 to v20.05_some-fix, then creates a merge
request. CI must use v20.05 as upstream branch, when comparing for
modified files etc.
This makes recording system audio very simple and feasible in a cross-device
manner since application-logic can always rely / forward ALSA audio to the
loopback device instead of a device-specific audio interface.
This adds a hwdb override for the trackpad that fixes the reported size, this fixes
the acceleration profile and palm detection in libinput.
Pulse now follows alsa paths for ucm files so the path for the rk3399 ucm has been
updated to match.
The DB410c is a SBC with APQ8016 SoC. It runs on mainline without
any patches. This port makes use of the existing linux-postmarketos-qcom-msm8916
kernel package that is used for other mainline MSM8916 devices.
Tested functionality:
- USB Network, USB Host (e.g. an USB keyboard)
- Flashing (Fastboot)
- Display (HDMI)
- WiFi/BT
- GPU
- Audio (HDMI)
- FDE
Not tested:
- GPS
Note: The firmware package is called firmware-qcom-db410c (instead of arrow)
because the firmware is provided directly by Qualcomm, not Arrow.
Newer versions of alsa-lib now require a top-level ALSA UCM
configuration (/usr/share/alsa/ucm2/ucm.conf):
ALSA lib parser.c:2159:(load_toplevel_config) Unable to find the top-level configuration file '/usr/share/alsa/ucm2/ucm.conf'.
ALSA lib main.c:983:(snd_use_case_mgr_open) error: failed to import hw:0 use case configuration -2
alsaucm: error failed to open sound card hw:0: No such file or directory
The upstream ALSA UCM configurations are provided by Alpine's
"alsa-ucm-conf" package, so make sure to install it additionally.
What works:
- Booting
- Display
- Touch
- USB Ethernet
What doesn't:
- Sound
- Wi-Fi
- Modem
- Camera
(NOTE: If the display doesn't work, try flashing your phone back to stock, then trying again.)
Bring the GCC packages up to date with upstream.
This adds a patch for time64 compatible futext syscall, it is needed for musl 1.2
which makes our little phones works after 2038.

bq-paella has an external speaker amplifier connected to the right
channel of the headphones output. Add an extra UCM configuration
to handle this properly.
We are in the midst of the Linux 5.8 merge window so there is no new
-rc version to rebase on. -rc1 next week is also not the perfect choice
for a release (first rc is usually still a bit unstable).
On the other hand the changes that landed the last few days are quite
nice and ready to go, so I decided to rebase on a stable kernel release
(5.7.1). Not sure if I'm ever going to do this again :)
Changes:
- Update to Linux 5.7.1
- bq-paella: Add sound and modem
- Enable some new kernel options for DB410c
Just got done with my second port of postmarketOS, here's the device:
Amazon Fire 7 (2019) postmarketOS
Mediatek MT8163
600x1024 display
1GB RAM
Linux 4.9.77 (downstream kernel)
Untested:
- Wi-Fi
- Audio
Pretty much everything else
Works:
- Boots
- Touchscreen
- Battery percentage seems to show in Xfce
