Support for Raspberry PI 4?

Postby jeajea » Fri Jun 28, 2019 3:15 pm

Is support planed for Raspberry PI 4?
If planned any estimate on when?
It appears it would be a good replacement for my Pogo plugs.
Is it an Arm 8 or what?

According to the spec sheet it is powered by a

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('', 'B')roadcom BCM2711, Quad core Cortex-A72 (ARM v8) 64-bit SoC @ 1.5GHz


I've tried booting from Generic AArch64. Didn't do anything though :(

Since you have the appear to have a pi 4 I would try installing the pi 3 version.

Note: even if the video doesn’t work you may be able to access it with SSH.
If I buy fours I don’t actually need the video.

Would someone who has a Pi4 post the output of the following:

$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', 'uname -a')
and
$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', 'gcc -c -Q -march=native --help=target')

Hey I have a raspberry pi 4 4GB currentley running raspian lite so that I can get info from it, let me know what information you need. Also I tried the aarch64 pi 3 mainline kernel install and it does not seem to boot. I will probably try the standard 32 bit pi 2 install ARMv7 later.

Edit: pi 2 ARMv7 does not work, when I tested it.

TLDR:

- hardware: Raspberry pi 4 (4GB)
- os: Raspian buster lite
- "uname -a": $this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', 'Linux raspberrypi 4.19.50-v7l+ #895 SMP Thu Jun 20 16:03:42 BST 2019 armv7l GNU/Linux')

On my quest to find out if there was anything I could do to further the push for arch on my raspberry pi 4 (although I am specifically hunting 64 bit mind you) I found Sakaki with a proof of concept: https://www.raspberrypi.org/forums/view ... ?p=1492322 and a later post https://jamesachambers.com/raspberry-pi ... ion-guide/ which I am hoping to use to get some good hints towards getting aarch64 on the pi4. I thought I should share those for anyone else searching.

I also noticed a page for raspberry pi 4 has come out although it links the pi2 image which to my understanding does not work, or atleast not with the afforementioned instructions at https://archlinuxarm.org/platforms/armv ... berry-pi-4 .
