With a modified bootloader, which enables device tree support, the Kindle Fire (1st gen; aka KC1 or otter) can boot pmOS with mainline kernel. The patches (aside from 0006) come from Michael John Sakellaropoulos <mjsakellaropoulos@gmail.com> and myself (Hansem Ro) while working on mainline support and documentation. Our current progress can be tracked at https://github.com/hansemro/kc1-linux. (Patch 0006 comes from RobertCNelson <robertcnelson@gmail.com>.) Details of each patch should be included in each patch. If you have any questions, feel free to reach out. So far: - kernel 5.11.0 works - pmOS boots - wifi works (with nonfree TI firmware) - display panel works - omapdrm/framebuffer works - panel backlight partially works: on/off support only - touchscreen works - USB OTG and CDC/ACM works - Debug UART works - battery fuel gauge works - charger controller works - temperature sensor works - green and orange leds work - RTC works - acclerometer works - no GPU acceleration - no PWM backlight control - no light sensor support - no audio support - no rproc support Installation guide (in draft state) can be found here: https://github.com/hansemro/kc1-linux/blob/pmOS_dev/pmOS/pmos_guide.md ------------- This commit includes WLAN fixes present in the following commit versions: - b1b11417 - 14ae3010 - 770955e4 - e6aa84d3 Issue: WLAN fails to power up and load firmware after being powered down.
