* 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
