now, the rootfs subvolume looks like @stretch,@bionic
it is possible to use different distribution in the same btrfs

The sed command was wrongly replacing every folder whose name ends
in 'log/' with 'log.hdd/', so i.e. '/var/log/ulog/*.log' became
'/var/log.hdd/ulog.hdd/*.log'. Subsequent logrotate exections would
fail due to non existent folders.
In addition, some logrotate config files may have more than one path
per line, so a 'g' option in the sed replacement regex is required
to replace all '/log/' entries at once.
In Debian Stretch, among others, udev's "predictable interface naming" has been
adopted, meaning the onboard ethernet is no longer named eth0, instead it's
"enx00..(mac address bytes)..". Use a udev rule to apply the RPS settings
instead of /sys/class/net/eth0/... which no longer exists.

* Bootscripts: Fixed boot-mvebu-next.cmd
The environment setting (armbianEnv.txt) is loaded to RAM located on
${load_addr} but the env import use wrong address (${pxefile_addr_r}).
bootargs still expect ${boot_interface} which carried over from boot-
marvell.cmd. Upstream's distro configuration use ${devtype} instead.

This merge request contains various files which add support for xt-q8l-v10 boards (TVBox) equipped with Rockchip RK3288 SoC, AP6330 WiSoC (BCM4330 WiFi + Bluetooth), 2 GB DRAM (LPDDR2 or DDR3), 8 Gb eMMC, Gigabit Ethernet, 3 USB (1 OTG), 1 microSD slot, SPDIF optical output, 1 HDMI.
Kernel patches:
This thouches all three linux-rockchip-* kernelconfigs, just adds brcmfmac and brcmutil modules and remote controller support. default flavor activates rockchip own remote controller driver, next and dev use the mainline GPIO CIR driver (dev has lirc userland support activated too).
About the remote controller, an additional kernel module is added to the existing keymaps which is activated via device tree.
About possibly clashing patches assert-phy-reset-when-waking-up-in-rk3288-platform.patch should be checked against other rk3288 boards because it addresses an errata in rk3288 which causes the USB Host ports to stop responding when exiting from autosleep. On my device if I connect the first USB device when the system is already running, the USB Host gets stuck without this patch. Probably to work correctly on other platforms the device tree should include the proper reset lines of the USB PHYs (for reference, check patch/kernel/rockchip-dev/xt-q8l-v10-add-device-tree.patch starting from line 869).
Patch 1-2-regulator-act8865-add-restart-handler-for-act8846.patch adds a restart handler which allows reboot using SIPC bit on act8846 power regulator. Possibly MiQi board is affected (is reboot working there?), others (tinkerboard) should not care.
Patch brcmfmac-add-ap6330-firmware.patch adds firmware file names for ap6330 , should be harmless in other cases.
Patch 0010-GPU-Mali-Midgard-remove-rcu_read_lock-references.patch is from Miouyouyou. It should be harmless, it was suggested by him to do some tests with devfreq
Other patches just add the proper device trees, Kconfig and bits for supporting the board as a regular kernel supported board and should not interfere with anything else
U-Boot patches:
All the patches for u-boot are per-board, so nothing is added which may interfere with other existing boards here. They include the device tree and u-boot config and also a couple of patches to support the silergy power regulators driving current to CPU and GPU
* Initial commit to provide kernel and u-boot configuration and device trees for xt-q8-v10 as patches

* Fixed bcm4330 bluetooth firmware linking for hciattach used by ap6330-bluetooth.service
* Removed foreign test patches from xt-q8l-v10 u-boot directory
* Initial commit BPi R2:
Currently working/not working:
- u-boot:
- builds with minor issues
- patching and cleanup happens on 'https://github.com/chwe17/u-boot-mt'
- next (https://github.com/frank-w/BPI-R2-4.14)
- boots with minor issues
- ETH doesn't work with nm
- sata works
- no wifi (needs driver from: https://github.com/frank-w/BPI-R2-4.4)
- USB not working (xhci-mtk 1a1c0000.usb: fail to get vbus) needs investigation
- appended device tree is needed due to u-boot doesn't work with fdt (kernelpacking needs adjustemts e.g. cat zImage dtb > zImage-dtb
- dev (kernel.org master)
- untested, needs adjustments in config (e.g. CONFIG_LOCALVERSION="")
- since no defconfig is available config is based on frank-w 4.16 Kernel
- Kernel builds without issues
- manual packing of kernel and dtb similar to next
The board boots, serial console is available but everything else must be expected as not working!
- to do:
- u-boot needs a cleanup
- binary blobs needs investigation
- eMMC is **not tested** and needs for sure adjustements! (don't try nand-sata-install!!!)
- bootscript isn't tested (only manual boot over u-boot console at the moment)
- both kernelconfigs aren't 'armbian standard' modules need to be adjusted
Only use it when you know're familiar with u-boot commands!
* Small fixes, add bootscript
- add bootscript for patched u-boot (needs patching of u-boot, currently under investigation and not working properly)
- revert cat zImage dtb > zImage-dtb (cause not working)
- first cleanup of dev kernelconfig (remove CONFIG_LOCALVERSION="")
* Minor fixup
-kernelconfig for next was adjustet so that USB is recognized
-firt bootscripts was written to boot with source command (doesn't work 100% reliable)
-slightly adjustd boardconfig (e.g. bootscript)
must still be considered as early wip!
* small update (FDT works now)
-working bootscript
-adjusted boardconfig
-earlyprintk activated in kernelconfig
* First attempt to get ETH working
-all interfaces are bridged together
-performance sucks at the moment (not clear if it's related to insane network configuration or I miss something obvious... :P )
* Major update (see below for changes):
- 4.14 kernel was dropped due to https://forum.armbian.com/topic/7296-bananapi-r2-csc-mt7623-as-new-boardfamily/?do=findComment&comment=55194 and following
- boot.cmd was adjusted to 'clean' mainline behaviour
- next build opition and its defaultconfg was removed (at the moment dev only)
- rework of the network default configuration
- default configuration will be over network.d **not** NetworkManager
- per default all wired interfaces are bridged together to br0 (still wip)
- old 'interfaces' configuration was removed
- boardconfig is adjusted (no desktop until I've prove that HDMI works)
- what works/ not works:
- board boots up without manual u-boot hacking
- SATA, USB3 (massstorage) is tested and works without issues
- due to rework of network configuration this is still wip and must be considered as 'not working'
* moved to network.d for configuration of wired network
- renamed bsp packages
- blacklist wired interfaces for NetworkManager
- defined all wired interfaces as br0 in systemd/network
- defined networkd als default renderer for bionic (not tested yet!)
* The houskeeping commit:
- BOARDFAMILY was renamed to mt7623 instead of mt7623n (including patchfolders etc.)
- Network.d has no fully control over wired networkes (block NM from controll, start networkd on firstrun etc.)
- Further cleanup kernelconfig
- CPU temp is visible from userspace
- missed switch driver loaded
- cryptodrivers are there (not tested)
- still a bunch of work
* Add DMA mem alloc patch
-under testing!
* Add next option (4.17.y) stick dev to master (4.18-rc1 untested)
* minor fixes:
- solve kconfig issues between 4.17 and 4.18
- stick next branch to 4.18
- first attempts to bring up gmac2 (doesn't work currently)
* switch to upstream u-boot
- fix ext4 dependency in patch series
- kernelpacking currently broken
* add bootz & cmd_ext4
* resolved merge conflict
* apply ugly u-boot patch, fix bootscript
* remove unneeded stuff, apply forgotten stuff
* update config for dev & clean up boardconf (remove xenial)
* - drop dev and next, move into default. There is no intention to provide stock kernel
- fixed board description, renamed to WIP, where it can be merged later
- packing boot firmware to the u-boot package
- docker dependencies (aufs will be added later. not essential)
- attached to 4.19.y
- loading armbianEnv.txt
- UUID support (tested)
- enabled ZRAM (tested)
- enabled eMMC install (not quite working properly yet)
- Bionic has some issues with systemd networking.
* gov to ondemand (thermals are conservative anyway), remove unneeded kernelconfigs
* Added AUFS, remove debug from kernel boot parameters, add ath10 mPCI support (which works)
* add power-off-key and rtc
* Added onboard wireless, but it's enabling is disabled by default. Too fragile.
* Change to CSC target
