KNOWN ISSUES:
- You may experience p-boot display pipeline handover failures with the
new HDMI HPD fix since (2021-10-26) if you have drivers compiled in such
a way that parts of the sunxi DRM stack have to re-probe on boot.
One way to workaround this is to compile everything needed for anx7688
and display pipeline as built-in drivers.
- Pinephone/Pinebook Pro Alt-DP and USB-SS works only in one orientation.
- There are still bugs in fusb302 that need to be fixed, sometimes it stops
detecting all activity on TypeC port, requireing reboot to fix.
- For whatever reason ppkb-i2c-inputd doesn't register POGO INT pin interrupts
when pinephone-keyboard.disable_input is used.
2022-06-15:
- pull in v5.18.4
2022-06-09:
- pull in v5.18.3

2022-05-22:
- rebase on v5.18
- added support for front and back camera for Pinephone Pro
- resolved clock frequency incompatibility between the sensor drivers
2022-05-21:
- rebase on v5.18-rc8
- stupid ass schematic for pinephone pro is completely confusing, which is one
reason why world facing camera didn't work up to now. See for yourself:
This https://megous.com/dl/tmp/39cbd011289c6818.png apparently means that
IMX258 is connected to MIPI1_TX1/RX1 lol https://megous.com/dl/tmp/5f25b00ef0166252.png
MIPI_RX0 is isp0 MIPI1_RX1 is isp1. Just by reading the camera sheet in the
schematic, I happily assumed that naming signals MIPI_RX0, they actually really
are MIPI_RX0, but alas. Anyway, I moved IMX258 sensor node in device tree
to isp1, so that increases chances that users who have working connection
to the sensor over I2C will have a working camera now. :) Please test and
report back.
- some cleanup and patch re-ordering in ppp branches
- drop A64 idle states from DT (these should be auto-added by TF-A when supported;

2021-10-26:
- workadound broken HDMI HPD on Pinephone
- this should make Alt-DP mode work on pinephones where it failed previously
(reaching only DP state 0x03)
- HPD is now signalled to HDMI PHY via a software route instead of in hardware
(hardware is confirmed broken by the product design team, exactly as I discovered
previously: https://xnux.eu/log/#045)

2021-10-20:
- fixed probe error handling in anx7688 (fix suggested by rsglobal)
- added axn7688 dependency on its I2C bus supply (avoids probe failure when

2021-06-16:

2021-06-05:
- rebase on linus/master (5.13-rc5)
- add support for runtime calibration of minimum duty cycle of PWM backlight
(until now it was hardcoded in device tree)
- minimum brightness calibration instructions (default for lth_brightness is 10%,
meaning is 'PWM duty cycle at the lowest brightness setting'):
echo 1 > /sys/class/backlight/backlight/brightness
echo 1 > /sys/class/backlight/backlight/device/lth_brightness
echo 2 > /sys/class/backlight/backlight/device/lth_brightness
echo 3 > /sys/class/backlight/backlight/device/lth_brightness
... increase values until you like the minimum brightness
... then make sure to restore this value after each boot by writing it to
/sys/class/backlight/backlight/device/lth_brightness
2021-06-05:
- rebase on linus/master (5.13-rc4+)
2021-05-31:
- rebase on linus/master (5.13-rc4)

2021-05-20:
- rebase on linus/master (5.13-rc2+)

- applied Samuel's time travel avoidance fix https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/linux-arm-kernel/patch/20210515021439.55316-1-samuel@sholland.org/
- this should fix occasional stalls and system hangs
- revert fine tuned OCV based capacity reporting, PMIC is not reporting OCV correctly
so kernel has garbage input for the OCV -> capacity conversion and thus produces
garbage output too (this stops large jumps in capacity when plugging in a charger
and in general makes capacity reporting saner)
- fixed "NOHZ tick-stop error: Non-RCU local softirq work is pending, handler #08!!!"
- wifi driver no longer prevents dynticks from working
- improved (well..., added) suspend/resume code to anx7688 driver :)

2021-05-01:
- fixed suspend failure of light/proximity sensor
- raise the default minimum frequency for mbus devfreq governor
(you can still lower it in sysfs for higher runtime power savings at the cost
of some performance, see /sys/class/devfreq and tune it there for your distro)
2021-04-26:
- rebase on 5.12 final
- fixed behavior with dumb charger (DCP) being forced to 500mA on boot from anx7688
driver
- disable lradc wakeup by default (lowers the power consumption in suspend)
2021-04-25:
- rebase on linus/master
- I've created a patch that disables touchscreen controller during system sleep
reducing power consumption by about 40mW in sleep (and by 130mW when touching
the screen in sleep)
- before: https://megous.com/dl/tmp/0533207eed42258c.png
- after: https://megous.com/dl/tmp/5d504d680415e2e3.png
- those power spikes are touch controller checking if there's a finger touching
the screen, and those dense spikes are when the finger is actually touching
the screen

- rebase on 5.12-rc4
2021-03-15:

- pulled in some fixes from linux-next into fixes-5.11
- disable MMC runtime PM again (causes issues on H5/H6 https://megous.com/dl/tmp/1eec9b1c7f03ad93.png)
- used nvmem reboot driver (suggested by Samuel in RFC patch) for rebooting to FEL,
eMMC bootloader, various p-boot boot configs on either eMMC or SD card's bootfs filesystems,
boot menu, etc. via reboot() syscall with extra arg (see LINUX_REBOOT_CMD_RESTART2)
(p-boot is also updated to support this mechanism, as of 2021-02-15)
2021-02-08:
- rebased on 5.11-rc7
2021-02-04:

- rebased on top of linus/master
2020-12-07:
- rebased on top of 5.10-rc7
2020-12-05:
- modem power driver: add more powerup modes and change interface for dumb and fastboot powerup
- you can now write 2, 3 or 4 to .../powered sysfs file to select differnt powerup mode from
the normal one (1)
- this is useful for selecting alternate userspace configurations early in boot to allow
tracing the userspace processes from early on for reverse engineering, and in the near
future, it will be used to switch between original and fully-FOSS userspace code
running on the modem's APPS CPU on powerup
- see https://xnux.eu/log/#028
2020-12-02:
- fix WiFi blocking suspend
- improve modem power driver interaction with kernel's autosleep
- shorten resume times from 1.2s to 400ms (wifi driver optimization)
2020-11-30:
- I improved the anx7688 driver to actually respect PD capabilities of the source,
and don't overload it. This should make it more likely to work with the USB-C
docks when docks are powered.
- Pine64 dock can provide either 500mA when powered from regular USB-A charger
(regardless of what kind of charger it is, it can't use more current from it)
- With my 3A PD charger, Pine64 dock will advertise 2600mA and Pinephone will
now respect this limit.
- rebase on linus/master (5.10-rc6 atm)
- increase I2C clock for sensors and touchscreen/anx7688 from 100kHz to 400kHz
- added patch from https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/dri-devel/cover/20200222024210.18697-1-yuq825@gmail.com/#23237865
for easier GPU debugging (suggested by bshah)

2020-11-25:
- added a new 2020-10 wifi driver and cleaned up to work with PinePhone
- see wifi-5.10 branch

My kernel's main integration branch is 'orange-pi-$VER' (this one).
No other branch is supposed to work alone. My defconfigs are tested
and work on the boards I support. Read the README.md for more info.
Only my branches based on the current mainline kernel branch are
maintained (those are usually the -rc# kernels!). You can find the
current mainline version here https://www.kernel.org/ (mainline: ...)
My prebuilt kernels can be found at https://xff.cz/kernels/ You can
use them to test that your board works, or just run them without
bothering with building everything yourself. I run them on all my
boards.
My website is https://xnux.eu and may contain useful advice.
Good luck!
