Linux mainline support

#1

what is the status of linux mainline support for Edge-V ? At least device tree etc stuff?

See the post below which include some device but not the one from Khadas. Did devs get their sample device etc?

PS: Mainline Linux support is key for success of such an device.

@numbqq Well you should gain more experience in the Mainline stuff. A lot of Brends did not success as they should because of lack of Mainline support.

You could contact some Linux mainline developers and contribute them a device, but they will of course need you and all information of what that device can == Specification like in link @balbes150 posted.

@numbqq You gain experience from doing. Mailing lists are nowhere near as simple as sending a PR on github, but if I can figure out how to send changes upstream it’s not impossible! :slight_smile:
