Re: Interrupt differences between 32-bit and 64-bit kernels

As you noticed the smp_affinity isn't implemented yet. Is the smp_affinity ever going to be implemented? It is an important feature to achieve performance in case of IRQ-hungry peripherals... Nobody asked for this before as a necessary feature. There are only few kernel developer working on upstrea...

 Nice, thanks for the update.
So it is looking like 5.6 will be the cross over point for Pi4 on mainstream?
Anything missing?
The whole graphics stuff (VC4, V3D), DMA engine and VCHIQ. I think they are more time consuming.

Re: Moving Linux kernel to 4.19

AFAIK Ubuntu and Gentoo doesn't use the mainline kernel. They still use the RPi vendor kernel or a fork. The distributions i'm aware of that use the mainline kernel are Arch (arm64 variant), Debian, OpenSuSE and Fedora. The chances are good that Linux 5.5 will gain GENET support (Ethernet) for RPi4....

Re: Moving Linux kernel to 4.19

Wondering why 4.19 is till been worked on? Because all the end user RPi kernel bases on the last LTS release, which is reliable. That post looks like 5.5 for Pi4's will be very mainstream. Should there be a new post "Moving to kernel 5.5"? The Mainline 5.5 has only very little Pi4 support from a us...

Re: Moving Linux kernel to 4.19

I'd surmise that the 5.3 kernel is just not mature enough yet. Probably won't be playing nice until at least 5.3.25 I would guess. Same for 5.4.

Re: Status of Raspberry Pi 4 in Mainline

I would have thought arm64 is the preferred mainline kernel. Optimizing for Aarch64 would give a better future and minimize the support required. From kernel perspective there is no preference. Both must work, but the BCM2711 / PCIe stuff needs some extra work for arm64. Nicolas Saenz Julienne take...

Ein alternativer Ansatz wäre MQTT als Zwischenschicht zu verwenden. Der Broker (z.B. Mosquitto) könnte dann auf dem Pi laufen auf dem auch rddtool läuft.

Yes, this is correct. But your patch will only be backported to 4.19 if it applies to these rules.

Re: Pi4 64-bit raspbian kernel for testing - Focus on Pi4

Feeling guilty for this. My recent pull request backported the upstream driver changes from 5.4 into 4.19. This also introduced the accepted upstream compatibles for clock and pinctrl which doesn't work with the pre 4.19.75 device tree. A possible workaround would be to add the old compatibles to th...

Ich kann ehrlich gesagt, nicht den Wirbel um die "64bit-Version" verstehen. Den Support gibt es doch schon länger und Distributionen wie Arch, Fedora oder OpenSuSE nutzen das auch fließig.
