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.
Now that CPU scaling is enabled, there is no need to disable the big cluster,
which was hurting performance before by staying at 19.2 MHz. Remove maxcpus=2
from the command line arguments.

Support the downstream kernel and a close-to-mainline fork. Waveform

Everything else should work.
The update to Linux v5.13.1 also includes updating the haptics driver
to the latest one posted to the mailing lists, which was renamed to
qcom-spmi-haptics. Rename the udev rule for this driver and update the

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.
Having RMTFS at runlevel boot makes it start the modem too fast and causes
crashes. Move it to runlevel default with a post-install.

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.

My engineering prototype 1 Gb pinetab is close to unusable,
so I can't use it to test pmOS. Also, PINE64 is no longer
selling these devices, and the ones that were sent previously
to some developers use different display panel anyway.
Martijn Braam and Dylan Van Assche agreed to maintain it.

Wifi just needs firmware, audio is broken.
Other parts haven't been tested yet.
The close-to-mainline kernel removed the generic-dsi driver in favor of
normal panel drivers. Also the panel drivers are now built in. Reflect that.
Also reflect the changes of firmware-motorola-ocean in

Headset jack events emit 2 events: 'Headset Microphone Jack'
and 'Headphone Jack'. These were properly detected before,
but not headphone jack events only: 'Headphone Jack'.
This change allows to detect headphone jack events as well
and act on these events by setting the headphones as
default audio output while keeping the internal
microphone as audio input. For headsets,
the microphone is switched to the headset microphone as well.

Port based on an unofficial LineageOS port
from https://www.los-legacy.de/17.1/zerofltexx, using kernel from

- Kernel boots
- Display and touch input (tested with Weston)
- USB networking
- Wifi
For now only including Wifi drivers, as I wasn't yet able to
successfully test audio and camera subsystems (but I intentionally left
these firmware files commented out in the APKBUILD file).

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

The PMIC AXP803 sends an interrupt to the A64 CPU when the
battery is critical low. This wakes up the tablet at ~10%
battery level, but UPower wasn't configured to add upon
this interrupt as the action level was way lower.
Therefore, the PMIC performed a hard shutdown when the
battery level dropped further, which may cause data loss.

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.

We used to have it at 40% and just bumped it to 100%. With 100%, I can
hear static noise in the headphones when using the PinePhone (pmOS CE)
in a silent room, even if I turn the volume down in Pulseaudio (e.g.
18%-30% in Phosh). This was not the case when we had it at 40%.
70% seems to be the sweet spot, where no static noise can be heard when
using headphones in a silent room, but where volume can still be turned
up to a very high level if necessary.
Ported succesfully to armv7. Everything that worked on armhf
