Hi,

Just a heads up (I’m on vacation) so not “gone” 😀

Anyhow my patches are and will be for 14-stable for the foreseeable future, 14-stable has an EOL date of late 2028 so lots of time 😀

When 15-stable has matured enough I will start to move my sources there, but its a rather big undertaking not just the rockchip stuff…

Helping you with your phone project looks to be a fulltime developer job, which I don’t have the time for, sorry.

Hello bro.

As you may already know,I'm building a modular "phone" based on the radxa zero 3W board and FreeBSD 14.2 with the panfrost enabled (ported by covacat). But the 14.2 is going EOL and soon the whole 14.x branch. I'm interested in starting to think about the 15.x branch. Point is that FreeBSD works on the radxa board only because Soren developed his patch for the 14.x.

But what about grabbing the code of FreeBSD 15.0 (what's the closest
version that can work with the radxa zero 3W ?) and try to apply the
Soren's patch to its code ? And then integrate the code of covacat with your new drm-subtree code ? Is it doable ? Do you want to help me ? I think that most of Soren's patches don't apply to 15.x and he stopped even to reply to my messages. So I don't think he wants to modify it's patch to make them work for the 15.x branch.

Except you and Covacat,no one seems to be interested in this. And I'm not a developer. I can barely test hardware and code and report the errors that I get....

Hi,

FWIW I modified Emmanuel Vadot's work [1] to be buildable as kmods on
