Draft: linux-postmarketos-rockchip: upgrade to 6.8 and use armbian config

Adam Thiede requested to merge adamthiede/pmaports:rockchip_67 into master

Attempting to get the rockchip kernel up-to-date and working. I have only tested this on pine64-rockpro64.

I pulled the bulk of the config from Armbian, since they have a working up-to-date config. It is located here. I also used pmbootstrap kconfig check linux-postmarketos-rockchip and satisfied all the issues it pointed out.

Previous attempts to update the kernel just using pmbootstrap kconfig migrate resulted in no networking for me, so working networking on a current kernel is a big step up for me!

What's working:

  • booting
  • network
  • display (at 1024x768@60hz only; the monitor it is hooked up to is 1280x1024@70hz)

I am not able to test anything else, since I don't have pcie devices, sound, or anything else hooked up to my rockpro64, but it boots and seems to work fine.

dmesg-679.txt

lsmod-679.txt

Would be nice to have help from some more experienced folks to figure out what is missing to get full-rez video.
