This is another huge branch with close to 450 changessets related to
devicetree files, roughly half of this for 32-bit and 64-bit respectively.
There are lots of cleanups and additional hardware support for platforms
we already support based on SoCs from Renesas, ST-Microelectronics,
Intel/Altera, Rockchips, Allwinner, Broadcom and other manufacturers.
A total of 6 new SoCs and 37 new boards gets added this time, one more
SoC will come in a follow-up branch. Most of the new boards are for
64-bit ARM SoCs, the others are typically for the 32-bit Cortex-A7.
Going more into details for SoC platforms with new hardware support:
The Snapdragon 855 (SM8150) is Qualcomm's current high-end phone platform,
usually paired with an external 5G modem. So far we only support the
Qualcomm SM8150 MTP reference platform, but no actual products.
For the slightly older Qualcomm platforms, support for several interesting
products is getting added: Three laptops based on Snapdragon 835/MSM8998
(Asus NovaGo, HP Envy X2 and Lenovo Miix 630), one laptop based on
Snapdragon 850/sdm850 (Lenovo Yoga C630) and several phones based on
the older Snapdragon 410/MSM8916 (Samsung A3 and A5, Longcheer L8150
aka Android One 2nd gen "seed" aka Wileyfox Swift).
Mediatek MT7629 is a new wireless network router chip, similar to
the older MT7623. It gets added together with the reference board
implementation.
Allwinner V3 is a repackaged version of the existing low-end V3s chip,
and is used in the tiny Lichee Pi Zero plus, also added here. There is
also a new TV set-top box based on Allwinner H6, the Tanix TX6, and the
eMMC variant of the Olimex A64-Olinuxino development board.
NXP i.MX8M Nano is a new member of the ever-expanding i.MX SoC family,
similar to the i.MX8M Mini. As usual, there is a large number of new
boards for i.MX SoCs: Einfochips i.MX8QXP AI_ML, SolidRun Hummingboard
Pulse baseboard and System-on-Module, Boundary Devices i.MX8MQ Nitrogen8M,
and TechNexion PICO-PI-IMX8M-DEV for the 64-bit i.MX8 line. For 32-bit,
we get the Kontron i.MX6UL N6310 SoM with two baseboards, the PHYTEC
phyBOARD-Segin SoM with three baseboards, and the Zodiac Inflight
Innovations i.MX7 RMU2 board.
In a different NXP product line, the Layerscape LS1046A "Freeway"
reference board gets added.
Amlogic SM1 (S905X3) and G12B (S922X, A311D) are updated chips from their
set-top-box line and smart speaker with newer CPU and GPU cores compared
to their predecessors. Both are now also supported by the Khadas VIM3
development board series, and the dts files for that get reorganized a
bit to better deal with all variants. Another board based on SM1 that
gets added is the SEI Robotics SEI610.
There are a handful of new x86 and Power9 server boards using Aspeed BMC
chips that are gaining support for running Linux on the BMC through the
OpenBMC project: Facebook Minipack/Wedge100/Wedge40, Lenovo Hr855xg2,
and Mihawk. Notably these are still new machines using SoCs based on
the ARM9 and ARM11 CPU cores, as support for the new Cortex-A7 based
AST2600 is still ramping up.
There are three new end-user products using 32-bit Rockchips SoCs:
Mecer Xtreme Mini S6 is an Android "mini PC" box based on the low-end
RK3229 chip, while the two AOpen products Chromebox Mini (Fievel) and
Chromebase Mini (Tiger) run ChromeOS and are meant for commercial settings
(digital signage, PoS, ...).
One more single-board computer based on the popular 64-bit RK3399 is
added: the Leez RK3399 P710.
