One approach could be to just try to do things on your hardware, and see what works and if there are any problems, then trying to diagnose and fix them. You would be surprised how many issues you can find this way. This could be as simple as running a Linux distribution, and for instance trying to play back a video file. Some known shortcomings and TODO items are listed on the linux-sunxi Wiki's Linux mainlining effort page: https://linux-sunxi.org/Linux_mainlining_effort#Work_In_Progress Since you mentioned v4l2 and H5, it looks like HDMI audio support for the H5 is still missing, for instance, although there are patches out there. You could pick them up, and push them for mainlining. Another issue that popped up lately is USB-OTG support. Most H5 boards seem to have a properly wired micro-USB socket, so you could try if switching between host and peripheral mode works (I guess it doesn't). Then try to find the problem - between the USB PHY, the MUSB driver, and the generic Linux OTG code. If you have any questions, I suggest you join the #linux-sunxi IRC channel on OFTC: https://www.oftc.net/ If you don't have an IRC client, you can use the web service: https://webchat.oftc.net/ There are logs of previous conversations here: https://oftc.irclog.whitequark.org/linux-sunxi/ Cheers, Andre > I do have sunxi (H5) hardware available, can anyone advise/suggest anything > to take up as a head start ? > > Appreciate your help. > > -- > Thanks & Regards, > Rutvij H Trivedi > +91-94087 30545 > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "linux-sunxi" group.
