Cypress bought the brcm WiFi stuff from broadcom so they want their firmware to
be called cyfmac instead of brcmfmac
a lot of brcmfmac firmware is now symlinked to cyfmac
Newer Qualcomm SoCs (e.g. SDM845. MSM8953) seem to use a different
method to talk to the modem. There are no longer separate rpmsg/SMD
channels for QMI messags, instead the modem is also available through QRTR.
On these newer SoCs, installing msm-modem-mainline is pointless,
because the created /dev/modem device will not actually allow
communicating with the modem. However, you still need the part from
the base package (msm-modem), which installs+enables rmtfs.
To avoid confusion, rename the msm-modem-mainline subpackage to
msm-modem-rpmsg. Install only "msm-modem" on SDM845 because that
likely does not allow communication with the modem through RPMSG
anyway.
At the moment we have Contributor: lines on some packages (but not all of them),
but often they don't represent the actual contributors to the package very well.
E.g. when we added them retroactively to the device packages we only added
the initial contributor (which isn't necessarily the person
who made most of the work for a device...)
The Git history is the most representative source for figuring out
who contributed to a package, so there is no reason to duplicate that
into the APKBUILD.
[skip ci]: way too many packages
The pkgrel bump in !1032 got lost during a rebase, rebuild the package to fix:
ERROR: Could not find dependency 'modem-qcom-msm-mainline-common' in any aports folder or APKINDEX.
Combine modem-qcom-msm-{mainline,downstream}-common to a single APKBUILD
with mainline and downstream subpackages.
Enable rmtfs service here instead of directly in the package.
[ci:skip-vercheck]: for qrtr version fix
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
