Details on Raspberry Pi 5 support timelines
by Peter Robinson 06 Jan '25

06 Jan '25

Hi Folks, I finally got some time over the weekend to dig into Fedora on the RPi5. The TL;DR is that there won't be any way of even basic support officially for F-40 GA. For those interested in more details..... The main pieces missing from the upstream kernel to boot to a login prompt over serial is appear to be the following: * The SoC pinctrl driver * Support in the mmc storage driver for the SoC variant * Minor bits for the gpio driver I'm not aware of any efforts to get anything upstream, I've not seen patches on lists etc. We have the firmware (bcm/u-boot) pieces in place in Fedora 40 and the kernel will start to boot and you get serial console output except you end up at a dracut prompt due to lack of storage. I am considering doing a Fedora kernel with patches in copr, and probably a F-40 remix minimal image, to enable minimal boot so other low level developers can use it as a basis for further investigation for things like upstream development. I don't have a timeline for this yet but I suspect late April. At the moment this looks like it'll be mSD, WiFi, serial console support and not much else. I've not looked at PCIe, the RP1 chip, or any other peripherals at all. I'll reply to this thread if/when I have any further updates, feel free to reference it elsewhere. Until there's either a kernel or kernel+image unless you can contribute to upstream kernel pieces there's probably nothing that can be done like "testing". If you can do kernel and would like to assist me feel free to reachout outside of this thread. Peter

Intel Xe
by Pim Zandbergen 01 Sep '24

Upstream has support for Intel Xe graphics in all of kernel, libdrm and mesa, yet all of these packages are built with Intel support disabled on aarch64. Intel Xe drivers, unlike i915 are architecture independent. On x86_64, they conflict with i915 drivers, so an elaborate scheme is used to allow both drivers to coexist. On aarch64, Intel Xe has no legacy counterpart, so no conflict either. All the more reason to enable Intel Xe on aarch64, just like on x86_64. Intel Xe support may not be perfect on aarch64, but this is just as true on x86_64.

RK3568 + Panfrost needs clk-scmi.ko on F40 Live iso
by Patrick Laimböck 31 Jul '24

Hi, I'm installing F40 on an Odroid M1 (RK3568) NVMe. After writing Fedora-Workstation-Live-osb-40-1.14.aarch64.iso [0] to an eMMC card and booting it I see lots of: [ 69.233581] panfrost fde60000.gpu: get clock failed -517 [ 69.233617] panfrost fde60000.gpu: clk init failed -517 On RK3568 the Panfrost driver needs the clk-scmi kernel module to be loaded to be functional. Where to report this? FWIW: when F40 Live is booted, it says "PRE-RELEASE/TESTING" in the top right corner and there are no options to select packages nor add a repo with updates (IIRC this was possible with F40 Live x86_64?) At the end the installer reports an error that it could not remove something old EFI related, that the system would not be bootable and that it's due to a bug. After finishing the installation, U-boot could not find/boot Fedora on the NVMe. So it's a known issue but is there a fix? Best, Patrick [0] https://mirrors.hostiserver.com/fedora/fedora/linux/releases/40/Workstation…
