The `msm-fb-refresher` updates the screen for msm based devices. It is
not needed for all devices, so we had some extra code in the initramfs,
that would only add it when the `deviceinfo_msm_refresher` variable was
set. However, we are able now to add files to initramfs hooks, so this
hack can be removed and simplify everything.
Changes:
* Remove `deviceinfo_msm_refresher` from all deviceinfos
* Add sanity check for it
* Move all `deviceinfo` sanity checks to an extra function
* `postmarketos-mkinitfs`: remove code for msm refresher
* `msm-fb-refresher`: add initramfs hook
The postmarketos-base package used to make the user part of the "video"
and "audio" groups. However, this did not work reliably, and we were
adding the "wheel" group in "pmbootstrap install" anyway.
Now all groups get added in "pmbootstrap install", and the names of the
groups have been moved to `pmb.config.install_user_groups`.
* firmware-samsung-i9195: new wlan subpackage
* samsung-i9195: add wlan firmware to nonfree-firmware dependencies
* firmware-samsung-i9195: change pkgver to sequential numbering.
this breaks package management. be careful when updating this package.
the old version was `201707.1`, which is higher than `1.1.0`.
Previous post install action results in loading wlan module during
sysinit. This is not possible since wlan device is only exposed after
wcnss-wlan service. This also delays ssh startup for approximately 3
minutes.
Loading wlan module should only be done on default runlevel, after
wcnss-wlan service has been started.
Also add a reference fb.modes file, although directfb applications still
doesn't work and cause the framebuffer driver to crash.
- Currently just graphics along with weston tested
- Depend on firmware-adreno from device-lg-hammerhead
- Reduce dep of linux-firmware
- Just pull qcom, bracm and adreno firmware
This package is currently broken in Alpine's binary packages for
the testing repository, and their build bot is stuck with another
package. In turn, this makes our package building for the repo get
stuck, as we can't build device-nokia-n900 (and it stops there).

As discussed in #1039, I want to split feature/hybris branch into
smaller sensible pull requests.
This is the first one that simply adds android-headers and libhybris
packaging. libhybris allows apps compiled with glibc (musl in our case)
to load Android libraries that utilize bionic libc, which is used to
load proprietary userspace drivers.
The package isn't very useful on its own and requires core (non-UI/Java)
Android services to be running in some way - either in Halium-style LXC
container or in same root as main OS with modified init (Mer/Sailfish do
it this way). Both ways are tested to work in postmarketOS.
libhybris also includes some tests, not all of them are known to be
representative, but test_vibrator and test_egl_configs are usually good
indicators if system is set up correctly.
* Progress can be followed in #1206
* Kernel boots with device tree from LineageOS and can
be installed by android recovery zip
* Networking comes up at boot but there's not display yet
* As discussed in IRC/matrix, we're removing `linux-postmarketos-lts`
for now. The kernel isn't used right now, and we save lots of
maintenance effort with not updating it every week or so.
* new config option `"kernel"` with possible values:
`"downstream", "mainline", "stable"` (downstream is always
`linux-$devicename`)
* ask for the kernel during `pmbootstrap init` if the device package
has kernel subpackages and install it in `_install.py`
* postmarketos-mkinitfs: display note instead of exit with error when
the `deviceinfo_dtb` file is missing (because we expect it to be
missing for downstream kernels)
* device-sony-amami:
* add kernel subpackages for downstream, mainline
* set `deviceinfo_dtb`
* device-qemu-amd64: add kernel subpackages for stable, lts, mainline
* test cases and test data for new functions
* test case that checks all aports for right usage of the feature:
* don't mix specifying kernels in depends *and* subpackages
* 1 kernel in depends is maximum
* kernel subpackages must have a valid name
* Test if devices packages reference at least one kernel
* Remove `_build_device_depends_note()` which informs the user that
`--ignore-depends` can be used with device packages to avoid building
the kernel. The idea was to make the transition easier after a change
we did months ago, and now the kernel doesn't always get built before
building the device package so it's not relevant anymore.
* pmb/chroot/other.py:
* Add autoinstall=True to kernel_flavors_installed(). When the flag
is set, the function makes sure that at least one kernel for the
device is installed.
* Remove kernel_flavor_autodetect() function, wherever it was used,
it has been replaced with kernel_flavors_installed()[0].
* pmb.helpers.frontend.py: remove code to install at least one kernel,
kernel_flavors_installed() takes care of that now.
* Specify a device tree binary file for p4wifi kernel
Previously the p4wifi kernel was using Android patches which append the
dtb to zImage in the kernel makefile.
Now follow mainline kernel convention of leaving the zImage and dtb
separate. Follow postmarketOS convention of specifying dtb file in
deviceinfo.
* Use linux-postmarketos-mainline APKBUILD build functions for p4wifi
* Update linux-samsung-p4wifi to kernel 4.16
- Use mainline broadcom bluetooth hci driver
- Use mainline atmel_mxt_ts driver
- Use mainline stmpe811 mfd driver and add stmpe811 ADC block
This doesn't exist anymore: so:libboost_filesystem.so.1.62.0
Affected packages are all from LuneOS UI:
* activitymanager
* mojoservicelauncher
* nodejs-module-webos-dynaload
