[bug#39617] [PATCH 0/2] Add initial Pinebook Pro support |

Hello ARM Gurus!
These patches add initial Pinebook Pro support. There are several rough edges,
your help would be much appreciated!
A vanilla kernel does not work yet; apparently development to upstream
pinebook-pro patches lives here:
https://gitlab.manjaro.org/tsys/linux-pinebook-pro
Similarly, Das U-Boot has a pinebook-pro development branch
https://git.eno.space/pbp-uboot.git
Because of "guix pull failing on aarch64"
https://issues.guix.gnu.org/issue/39352
these patches must be applied on top of
c7dd15596ffd09ab40629c89e7014e51a4d7e95e
(or use branch wip-pinebook-pro from https://gitlab.com/janneke/guix.git)
To install Guix System on the microSD in a Pinebook Pro, do something
like
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
sudo mount /dev/mmcblk0p1 /mnt
sudo -E ./pre-inst-env guix system init gnu/system/examples/pinebook-pro.tmpl
/mnt
sudo -E ./pre-inst-env guix system init arm-baar.scm /mnt
sudo sed 's,FDTDIR \([^ ]*\),FDT \1/rockchip/rk3399-pinebook-pro.dtb,'
/boot/extlinux/extlinux.conf
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
Because of the aarch64 guix pull problem, the separate repositories for
kernel and u-boot, the weird MMC numbering changes /dev/mmcblk0 <->
/dev/mmcblk1 and this ugly extlinux.conf fixup I am not sure where to
share this code, maybe wip-pinebook-pro @ savannah. WDYT?
For more details, see
https://joyofsource.com/guix-system-on-the-pinebook-pro.html
I think it would be nice to have an updated this blog on guix.gnu.org when
these silly problems are resolved.
Greetings,
janneke
