- For 6.18 + 6.19
- mixtile-blade3: add 4-pin header fan at 40c
- mixtile-blade3: add gpu nodes
- mixtile-blade3: add vcc5v0-host-en "usb" pinctrl
- somehow results in 2 working RTL8169's behind the ASM1182e on pcie2x1l0
- which just means the _schematics lie_
- mixtile-blade3: drop rst pinctrl from pcie2x1l0 and pcie2x1l1
- this is me probably being stupid, but also required for working ASM1182e/RTL8169
- Status of this mainline port:
- Initially started by Joshua Riek (2023?)
- I then added some PCIe3x4 stuff, but never got around to finishing it
- Specifically, the 2 FUSB302's are beyond me for now
- One of them _powers_ the board. To use with mainline, power the board some other way with 12V, otherwise kaboom.
- See sre's talk on this issue; Blade3 should be similar to Rock-5b in this aspect.
- A challenge has been the PCI2x1 lanes to the miniPCIe and ASM1182e switch
- Which by themselves seem to work, but the devices behind them (Switch + RTL8169 NICs) do not get powered
- Until one day I tried to describe a (in theory) USB-related power pin, and suddenly both PCIe NICs started working!
- All that said, the board is really not stable with this; end-users are much better off with vendor kernel for now.
- Any and all help is appreciated. Those boards are nice, they've 2 FUSB302, and fancy PCIe Endpoint mode stuff.
- Schematics we have access to are in https://damwold5pt25n.cloudfront.net/blade3/file/Schematic_Blade_3_v1.1.0.pdf
- Those clearly lie.

Purpose of This Repository
The Armbian Linux Build Framework creates customizable OS images based on Debian or Ubuntu for single-board computers (SBCs) and embedded devices.
It builds a complete Linux system including kernel, bootloader, and root filesystem, giving you control over versions, configuration, firmware, device trees, and system optimizations.
The framework supports native, cross, and containerized builds for multiple architectures (x86_64, aarch64, armhf, riscv64) and is suitable for development, testing, production, or automation.
Looking for prebuilt images? Use Armbian Imager — the easiest way to download and flash Armbian to your SD card or USB drive. Available for Linux, macOS, and Windows.
Quick Start
git clone https://github.com/armbian/build
cd build
./compile.sh
