sunxi: remove usage of legacy LED API

2026-03-16T20:55:53+00:00

We are trying to get rid of the legacy LED API and PinePhone is one of
the last ones requiring it.

Unlike all other users of the legacy LED API, PinePhone is controlling
the GPIO LED in SPL. Unfortunately, Sunxi doesn't enable DM support in
SPL because of tight space constraints, so we cannot make use of the
modern LED framework as that is based on DM_GPIO.

Since PinePhone is the last user of this API, I'm moving the logic to
Sunxi SPL code and will let this community decide how to handle this hot
potato.

The logic is extremely simplified as only one GPIO LED is currently
controlled in SPL by PinePhone. No need for handling multiple LEDs or
inverted polarity, let's keep it simple.

This however allows us to use the modern LED framework once in U-Boot
proper since this logic won't collide with the new framework.

Since the only misc drivers that were compiled in SPL were guarded by
CONFIG_LED_STATUS and CONFIG_LED_STATUS_GPIO, we can also disable
CONFIG_SPL_DRIVERS_MISC (which does nothing anymore).

This also saves some space for PinePhone in SPL and proper.

mtd: rawnand: sunxi_spl: add support for H6/H616 nand controller

2026-02-03T20:45:18+00:00

Introduce H6/H616 NAND controller support for SPL

The H616 NAND controller has the same base as A10/A23, with some
differences:
- MDMA is based on chained buffers
- its ECC supports up to 80bit per 1024bytes
- some registers layouts are a bit different, mainly due do the stronger
ECC.
- it uses USER_DATA_LEN registers along USER_DATA registers.
- it needs a specific clock for ECC and MBUS.

For SPL, most of the work was setting the clocks, adding the new
capability structure for H616 and supporting the new USER_DATA_LEN
registers.

Tested on Whatsminer H616 board (with and without scrambling, ECC)

mtd: rawnand: sunxi: remove usage of struct sunxi_ccm_reg

2026-02-03T20:44:33+00:00

The sunxi_ccm_reg is legacy, drop its usage from nand related code

For that, CCU_NAND0_CLK_CFG and CCU_AHB_GATE1 are added to the clock
files when missing.
And clock code in sunxi_nand{,_spl}.c and board.c are changed to use the
new scheme.

Moreover, drop AHB_DIV_1 in favor of the more readable CCM_NAND_CTRL_M/N

board: sunxi: Add X96Q support

2026-01-25T23:29:32+00:00

The X96Q is a set-top box with an H313 SoC, AXP305 PMIC, 1 or 2 GiB RAM,
8 or 16 GiB eMMC flash, 2x USB A, Micro-SD, HDMI, Ethernet, audio/video
output, and infrared input.

  https://x96mini.com/products/x96q-tv-box-android-10-set-top-box

This commit adds a defconfig and some documentation. The devicetree is
already in dts/upstream.

The CONFIG_DRAM_SUNXI_* settings are chosen such that the register
values in the DRAM PHY's MMIO space are as close as possible to those
observed when booting with the preinstalled vendor U-Boot. The DRAM
clock frequency of 600 MHz was reported in the vendor U-Boot's output.

sunxi: avoid double vendor prefix when CONFIG_OF_UPSTREAM is enabled

2026-01-25T23:29:32+00:00

When CONFIG_OF_UPSTREAM is enabled, the device tree name provided by SPL
already includes the vendor directory (e.g., "allwinner/board-name").

The existing logic in misc_init_r() unconditionally prepends "allwinner/"
for ARM64 builds, resulting in an incorrect path like
"allwinner/allwinner/board-name.dtb".

This patch modifies the logic to only prepend the vendor prefix if
CONFIG_OF_UPSTREAM is NOT enabled. This ensures compatibility with both
legacy builds and the new upstream devicetree structure.

Merge patch series "Convert extension support to UCLASS and adds its support to boot flows"

2025-11-03T16:12:05+00:00

Kory Maincent (TI.com)  says:

This series converts the extension board framework to use UCLASS as
requested by Simon Glass, then adds extension support to pxe_utils
and bootmeth_efi (not tested) to enable extension boards devicetree load
in the standard boot process.

I can't test the imx8 extension scan enabled by the
imx8mm-cl-iot-gate_defconfig as I don't have this board.
I also can't test the efi bootmeth change as I don't have such board.
