We cannot have two of them at the same time, most compiler would fail here
but for some reason our didn't.
However, it's better to just use one (the new one, or the old one). Enable
CONFIG_RTL8723CS_NEW, which is the new driver that made it to pine64
kernel since 5.5.

We should disable it by default and let the user to enable it
when they want it.
And currently it's causing problems where the backlight would
go very dark with it enabled on PinePhone.

bq-paella allows running unsigned firmware from other devices.
We can use that advantage to replace some of the original firmware
with newer versions from other devices. The DB410c has updated WCNSS
firmware that reportedly improves WiFi/BT coexistence (i.e. behavior
when both WiFi/BT are active at the same time).
Depend on the virtual "firmware-qcom-msm8916-wcnss" package to give
the user the choice which firmware version they would like to run.
The newer version from "firmware-qcom-db410c-wcnss" is installed by
default (since it has a higher "provider_priority"), but the user
can choose to replace it by running "apk add firmware-bq-picmt-wcnss".
- Set fixed commit in "source" line to avoid future problems if some
change is pushed to the repository
- Add pmb:cross-native to build natively since these are just a few
copy operations
- Remove some unneeded `cd "$srcdir"` lines
- Avoid installing venus.mbn since this is just a combined version of
venus.mdt + venus.b*
- Split -wcnss subpackage into -wcnss and -wcnss-nv to allow replacing
the WCNSS firmware with a newer version from firmware-qcom-db410c
- Provide "firmware-qcom-msm8916-wcnss" to still allow switching to
the original firmware if wanted
- Install only WCNSS_qcom_wlan_nv.bin for aarch64 since the other
configuration files are only needed for downstream (armv7)
The WCNSS firmware from DB410c is also useful for other devices
that can run unsigned firmware (e.g. bq-paella) because it is newer
and reportedly has some WiFi/BT coexistence problems fixed.
To allow easy switching betwen the original firmware from the manufacturer
(firmware-bq-picmt-wcnss) and the newer firmware (firmware-qcom-db410c-wcnss)
we make both packages provide a virtual "firmware-qcom-msm8916-wcnss"
package. The newer version from firmware-qcom-db410c gets a higher
provider_priority so it is installed by default.
However, the user can choose to do "apk add firmware-bq-picmt-wcnss"
to get the original firmware from the manufacturer instead.
This release gets rid of the hacks needed for out-of-tree modules in the
previous version of calamares.

Following discussions in
https://gitlab.com/postmarketOS/pmaports/-/issues/398, swclock has been
removed from postmarketos-base to avoid setting time incorrectly on
devices with a hardware clock. The various raspberry pi don't have
an hardware clock. This activate swclock back.
Fails to build, because extra-cmake-modules from Alpine is not available
for armhf. Its APKBUILD says "Blocked by qt5-qtdeclarative".

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.)
