Description The current script can overwrite drivers which are set as built-in in the board-specific config. This is not desirable. Add a check to ensure we do not convert built-in stuff into modules. First encountered it when pocketbeagle 2 kernels was enabling EXT4 as module instead of being built-in, which makes the current rootfs (using ext4) fail to run. How Has This Been Tested?

5G is often associated with Gigabit speeds when found in mobile handsets or connected laptops, while there’s also 5G LPWA for battery-powered IoT devices. 5G RedCap, which stands for Reduced Capability, offers a middle ground for industrial IoT applications that keep some 5G features such as low latency, low power consumption, enhanced security, and network slicing while limiting the bandwidth to around 85 Mbps. 5G RedCap, also called NR Lite, will be part of 3GPP Release 17 scheduled for later in 2022, and further improved in Rel 18 in 2023. It will be first found in applications currently relying on LTE Cat 1 through Cat 4, and can be considered a light version of the 5…

Description This PR includes the following changes I noticed that we were making use of r_i2c to communicate with AXP chip for Orange Pi lite2 and one plus in linux kernel, but were using r_rsb in u-boot. Made this consistent by porting the patch used in sunxi kernel to u-boot. Moved to board specific crust config for Orange Pi 3, lite2 and one plus. The difference from previous configuration is that crust will now be aware of presence of AXP power chip present on the board and hence should be able to lower the power usage further during sleep or shutdown state Enabled kernel module for Hantro G2 video codec block available on H6 boards. Should allow faster video decodi…

We’ve written about STMicro Time-of-Flight ranging sensors several times over the year, including the latest VL53L8 which offers a range of up to 4 meters. But if your application would benefit from a more extended range, Toppan and Brookman Technology have designed a three-dimensional range image sensor (3D sensor) capable of measuring distances from one to 30 meters. using a hybrid Time-of-Flight (ToF) method. That method, proposed by Professor Shoji Kawahito of Shizuoka University, is a new sensing technology combining the indirect ToF method of measuring distance by phase difference and the direct ToF methodology for measurement based on time differences.

Description After today's complete stall of primary Ubuntu infrastructure I switched to mirrors in order to rebuild caches. First problem is that often mirrors for amd64 and others are placed on different locations. This part is covered but it fails for riscv64 architecture. In order to cover that too, its better to have more generic variable CUSTOM_UBUNTU_MIRROR_PORTS and have everything that is not amd64 there. By quick research - if mirror hosts arm64 it also hosts risv64 and vice versa. Second problem - if caches are re-generated with 3rd party mirrors, release lists remain with those values. How to approach to that problem? We want that - at least our builds - are a…

Changes to be committed: modified: aml-s9xx-box.tvb PR #6659 broke upgrades for the aml-s9xx-box package. That PR introduced two new files in /boot which is a fat filesystem on this box.

Arducam Mega is a 3MP or 5MP camera specifically designed for microcontrollers with an SPI interface, and the SDK currently supports Arduino UNO and Mega2560 boards, ESP32/ESP8266 boards, Raspberry Pi Pico and other boards based on RP2040 MCU, BBC Micro:bit V2, as well as STM32 and MSP430 platform. Both cameras share many of the same specifications including their size, but the 3MP model is a fixed-focus camera, while the 5MP variant supports autofocus. Potential applications include assets monitoring, wildfire monitoring, remote meter reading, TinyML applications, and so on. Arducam Mega specifications: Camera Type 3MP with fixed focus 5MP with auto-focus from 8cm to inf…

Description Bump rockchip64 edge kernel to v6.10. Includes the rk3328 gpio2 bank fix from https://github.com/armbian/build/pull/6974 Minor changes have been needed to bring patches from 6.9 to 6.10 (notably, very small rework of the overlay compilation). @brentr rk3308 now has a mainline audio codec driver. It breaks several patches that previously introduced a driver and manipulated it to "sync with BSP" and convert to "component". This commit contains all the modifications I did to allow the kernel to compile cleanly, but the result may not provide working audio or may not provide the same functionalities as before, hence rk3308 audio section requires some more separa…

Armbian's next release boots the FriendlyElec NanoPi M5 end-to-end from UFS on a mainline U-Boot, with no proprietary recovery image in the loop. It is the first RK3576 board in the catalogue to reach this state, and the integration pattern paves the way for the others. UFS, the storage class that replaced eMMC in phones, is packet-based and full-duplex with command queuing. The practical gain over an SD card shows up in random I/O, in latency under concurrent load, and in write endurance that holds up over years of deployment. FriendlyElec ships UFS on the M5 because the RK3576 has a native UFS controller, a sensible choice for any board destined for kiosks, robots, or i…
