Hi!
In 6.8-rc0, driver for gc2145 (front camera on pinephone) was merged,
but we don't have corresponding dts entries. Does anyone have setup
where they can fix it easily?
[If you have hints how to set-up pinephone for kernel development,
that would be welcome. Currently I have mobian with rather old 6.1
kernel on it, and lack of keyboard/ethernet makes things tricky.]
Best regards,
Pavel

Hello Pavel,
Isn't this simply the case of picking the gc2145 bits from Megis tree?
https://megous.com/git/linux/tree/arch/arm64/boot/dts/allwinner/sun50i-a64-pinephone.dtsi?h=orange-pi-5.10#n410
[For the pinephone kernel development there's the option of building the
kernel using envkernel.sh in postmarketOS with
https://wiki.postmarketos.org/wiki/Compiling_kernels_with_envkernel.sh
which has some automation for building a kernel and pushing it to a
connected device. Ethernet and keyboard are replaced by ssh and
usb-networking in this case]
Greetings,
Martijn

So far I'm mostly using "pmbootstrap build --src" [1], which essentially
builds the pmOS kernel package but replaces the source with the tree I
point at. I keep thinking I should try envkernel.sh [2], which is
supposed to set up cross-compiling with the usual make flow. Maybe
that'd work with bindeb-pkg?
I don't know how well an unpatched mainline kernel would run, I'm
currently using megi's 6.7 tree [3] plus the pmOS patches as the basis
for my rtw88_8723cs development [4] (if you look at the history, it's
v6.7 -> orangepi-6.7 -> pmos-6.7 -> rtw88_8723cs). I know megi's kernel
has some DTS patches but haven't looked too deeply into the changes,
maybe some could be upstreamed together with the camera part.
Regards,
Fiona

Well, that, adjusting dts bits to the new driver, testing and
submitting the patch. And it looks someone did the work and patches
are floating around. GOod :-).
I'm fighting with kexec crashing as soon as I pass dtb. Do I need to
modify the dtb somehow?
Best regards,
Pavel
