samsung-serranovelte runs Linux mainline (linux-postmarketos-qcom-msm8916)
with support for:
- Display
- Touchscreen
- Sound
- GPIO keys
- NFC
- Vibrator
- IMU (Accelerometer + Gyroscope)
- Battery
The primary limitation of samsung-serranovelte is that it can only run
ARMv7 (32-bit) binaries, even though its hardware (MSM8916) is 64-bit
capable. This is because it was never updated with 64-bit compatible
firmware (usually introduced together with the Android 5.0 update).
[ci:skip-vercheck]: only added new architectures
The post-install depends on the -openrc files being present, and if the
dependency isn't explicitly specified then the device-* package may be
installed before the -openrc package, causing the post-install to fail.
Both sway and phosh require hardware acceleration (DRM) to work. Let's
activate that when we request one of them. Also don't let them fail
during startup on inputless setups (which is common on a raspberry pi).
Phosh is too slow to be unsable, but now, it'll at least be unusable out
of the box ;-)
Without this MR, elogind, and therefore weston will not start as it will
complain about cgroup mess:
[ 21.387150] elogind-daemon[1538]: Failed to determine whether /sys/fs/cgroup is a mount point: Symbolic link loop
[ 21.388341] elogind-daemon[1538]: Failed to mount cgroup at /sys/fs/cgroup/elogind: No such file or directory
Fix by applying this patch, thanks minlexx for pointing me to it! This
might possibly also be applicable to other kernel 3.4-based ports.

This provides alsa usecase profiles for the audio routing in the

Remove all firmware-support dependencies from the firmware package and
add them to -downstream-firmware and -mainline-firmware packages which
have an install_if on the downstream or mainline kernel subpackage.

Stock Android on PineTab is detected as 1f3a:1007.
Use those values as USB idVendor and idProduct on
postmarketOS, too.
idVendor 1f3a is "Allwinner Technology Co., Ltd."
idProduct 1007 is unknown to databases.
device/device-asus-me176c:
- Install me176c-factory to apply correct MAC addresses for
WiFi and BT
- Use FAT32 for boot partition. This allows flashing the boot
partition directly as ESP (EFI System Partition).
- Overall cleanup
device/linux-asus-me176c:
- Update kernel fork to 4.19.80
- Cleanup APKBUILD
- Stop building patched ACPI DSDT table directly into kernel
firmware/firmware-asus-me176c:
- Package WiFi firmware
firmware/firmware-asus-me176c-acpi:
- New package for the patched ACPI DSDT table
-> Separate from firmware-asus-me176c because it is always required,
(not optional)
[ci:skip-build]: runs into timeout
The modem boots up properly without causing any problems, so let's
install the firmware and support packages by default.
Also install adsp-audio now by default to boot up the adsp for audio and
other services provided by the processor.

The initramfs needs ext4 (to mount the rootfs) and usb_f_rndis
(to enable USB networking on devices that use USB configfs).
If these are built as modules, they need to be included in initramfs.

We have linux-postmarketos-qcom and linux-postmarketos-qcom-msm8916 now,
which is quite confusing. linux-postmarketos-qcom was originally added
for MSM8974 devices (e.g. Nexus 5) and its patches on top of mainline
are therefore quite focused on MSM8974.
linux-postmarketos-qcom-msm8916 on the other hand, has patches specific
to MSM8916. The two packages do not have any patch in common, therefore
merging the two would only cause signficiant overhead to coordinate
testing for devices of the two SoCs.
Therefore, it is better to keep them separate.
To avoid confusion, rename linux-postmarketos-qcom to
linux-postmarketos-qcom-msm8974 to make it clear that it is really
a close-to-mainline kernel for MSM8974 devices.

The sparse image tools (img2simg, simg2img, append2simg) are now
part of Alpine's android-tools package where they are continously
updated. (See https://github.com/nmeum/android-tools/pull/8)
Remove "libsparse" as depends from all packages because it is either:
- installed automatically by pmbootstrap when needed for
deviceinfo_flash_sparse="true"
(device-chuwi-hi10plus, device-htc-flounder, device-lg-bullhead,
device-semc-anzu, device-xiaomi-kenzo)
- seemingly unused(?)
(device-asus-z00t, linux-motorola-falcon, linux-motorola-peregrine)

This simplifies the uboot script and updates it to use correct address
offsets for kernel, ramdisk and fdt. Appending the dtb to the kernel is
no longer necessary. This also changes the dtb to the one used on
PureOS.
linux-samsung-apexq/APKBUILD updated with newer kernel commit
sha from d2 repo, and now builds and packages modules into the
rootfs in /lib/modules/. prima wifi module not yet working.
The subpackage depends on the "kernel-scripts" package, which has been
removed from pmaports.git. Therefore the -dev package could not be
installed, and our CI check of the binary repo noticed this and was
failing.

Make the renamed pine packages build again, by giving their post-install
files the new pkgname.
(So much for trivial package renames, needs better testing next time :p)
* Added display in final pinephone to the kernel
* Added getty
* Use RGB led to signify booting status in u-boot
* Enable CONFIG_GPIO_SYSFS
[ci:skip-build]: won't finish in time
Changes in the kernel defconfig:
- disable ANDROID_PARANOID_NETWORK (removes network restrictions)
- enable CONFIG_USB_G_ANDROID and CONFIG_DIAG_CHAR (for USB networking)
- enable DEVTMPFS (needed for udev -> touch support in weston)
- enable FB_MSM_DEFAULT_DEPTH_RGB565 (for 16-bit support to avoid red
screen)
- enable SYSVIPC (so busybox' syslogd can log to a ringbuffer in the
kernel)
- enable VT (for virtual terminal over USB)

Insert missing space into the depends line, so it reads "gmp-dev bash"
instead of "gmp-devbash". This did not cause a build failure, but made
the upstream compat CI check fail after the binary package had been
built and uploaded. It would also cause an error if one tried to install
the package. The CI check will pass once the fixed package is built and
uploaded.
[ci:skip-build]
* add dev-package
* modularize some kernel drivers
* modernize Makefile to silence some warnings
* fix various warnings

This rebases the Pixel 3 XL patches on top of Linux 5.3-rc5.
Also enabled more kernel modules related to modem, and applied
Bjorn Andersson's patch for resetting the UFS memory.

[ci:skip-build] because kernel takes more than one hour to build
Some Samsung muic's have debug possibility, but seems kernel config
option for that was deleted. Muic debug can be useful for attaching UART

Firmware for Exynos 7880 SOC from https://github.com/TheMuppets
It is needed to enable wifi, and possibly other hardware. All of firmware found on Muppets has been packaged.
Also contains wlan module configuration.
Use deviceinfo_framebuffer_landscape during splash screen generation.
Also add the postmarketos-splash arguments variable to the computation
of the hash for the cache.
Adjust device-pine-pinetab to use the new variable, and therefore rotate
its splash screen.

- rename 'ch-de' keymap to 'ch' as in X keyboard config file
- add PMOS_NO_OUTPUT_REDIRECT to kernel cmdline (fixes debug-shell)
- add all keymap files in initramfs
- load default us keymap in initramfs
Also fix a few spaces->tabs issues while we're at it.
Should result in the exact same commit being download as before, the
checksum is different because GitHub puts the commit instead of the
branch name into the archive.

The wallpaper has been broken, since we intentionally removed the N900
specific wallpaper from the postmarketos-wallpapers package. Just use
the default wallpaper, and tell feh to scale it nicely.

- USB networking works
- Display and touch works
- Weston, XFCE4, Plasma Mobile works with software rendering
- fb.modes added but charging-sdl still don't work
