what about PI 4

[graysky]

@tiagoboldt - Can you boot from the internal microSD with the kernel I built on the RPi4? I do not have an external USB for testing purposes.

[graysky]

Kevin pushed 4.19.57-2 now which should boot on the Pi4. Until the arm7h image gets updated you will obviously need to update the uSD card on another Pi, then move the card into your Pi4.

i can confirm new kernel as functional
thank you for your work

[tiagoboldt]

I can also boot my pi4 after updating the kernel on my previous pi2. Good job guys!.

I can also confirm that the PI 4 works well with the new kernel, with one exception: wi-fi seems to be disabled and no adapter is shown within dmesg or lsusb. ifconfig only shows wired connections. iw list keeps empty.

did someone get wi-fi to work as well?

[sivent]

I can confirm wifi adapter is missing

Also, kodi-rbp3 seems to not be working. I only get a blank screen with no errors in debug log

Other than that, all seems to work so far. great work

Got wifi to work with this workaround:

- unload driver (indispensable!):
modprobe -r brcmfmac

- load driver again:
modprobe brcmfmac

brings wlan0 up and works properly.

Before this, dmesg gives some reason: "brcmfmac: brcmf_sdio_htclk: HT Avail timeout (1000000): clkctl 0x50"

Can someone confirm this? How can this got to work from the (re)boot without any workaround?

... and kodi didn`t work as sivent said, I can confirm this.

[graysky]

I dunno about wifi ... need to compare the two kernel configs and see if ours is missing something. It's odd that unloading it then reloading it works so perhaps my previous statement is off the mark.

Recommend you (andisci) post this to the raspberry pi forum as they might have a suggestion, addition of some module parameter or whatever.

About kodi-rbp3 ... yes, that is expected. The RPi4 does not use windowing with dispmanx for GL window surfaces like the 1-3 do so these packages won't work on Pi4. It will try to use the firmware GL libs (in /opt/vc/lib) and headers (in /opt/vc/include) which won't work on the Pi4 (GL hardware is only supported by MESA libs). It will need to be gbm but currently there is no hardware decoding for this.

Makes sense about kodi, thanks for looking into it.
I have a feeling v19 is a few months away at least, any chance you can create a kodi-rbp4 or AUR package if/when you manage to get those LibreELEC patches working for v18?

unloading/reloading brcmfmac didnt work for me btw. still get that same error

[fryfrog]

Is this for aarch64 or armv7l?

My working and updated aarch64 microSD didn't boot, but the same armv7l did so that answers my question.
