[LEDE-DEV] [PATCH v2 0/5] mvebu: add kernel 4.14 support

Sun Jan 21 09:53:03 PST 2018

This add support for kernel 4.14 to the mvebu target. My main reason to 
add kernel 4.14 support is to make it easier to also add support for the 
Marvell Armada 3700LP ARM64 SoCs especially the ESPRESSObin board. 

I do not have any of the currently supported boards so I can not runtime 
test this myself, Lucian Cristian already tested an older version of
these patches on one of his boards.

My current working tree for this target can be found here:
https://git.openwrt.org/?p=openwrt/staging/hauke.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/mvebu-4.14
This tree also contains the code needed for the ESPRESSObin, but we 
still have some problems with the image creation, the bootloader boots 
by default the kernel + dtb from a ext4 file system on a SD card and 
also uses this partition as root file system.
Tomasz Maciej Nowak is working on the image generation for the 
ESPRESSObin board.

I am waiting for positive and negative feedback on these patches, if you 
run into a problem which you do not have with kernel 4.9 please report 
this.

changes in:
v2:
 * refresh on current generic kernel 4.14 integration
 * create ubifs fs format version 4 also with kernel 4.14, this should 
   fix sysupgrade (downgrade) from kernel 4.14 to 4.9
 * rename the wireless driver path when upgrading

Hauke Mehrtens (5):
  kernel: ubifs: create use file system format 4 by default
  mvebu: move files to files-4.9 and files-4.4 folder
  mvebu: copy config and patches from 4.9 to 4.14
  mvebu: Make kernel 4.14 patches apply
  mvebu: migrate uci config to new PCIe path
