linux4sam_5.8 tag

Kernel

Enhancements are added on top of the official v4.9 Linux kernel tag where most of the Microchip SoC features are already supported. Note as well that we re-integrate each and every stable kernel release on top of this Long Term Support (LTS) kernel revision. This means that each v4.9.x version is merged in our branch.

Here is a little summary of the main additional enhancements:

  • Integration of stable kernel updates up to v4.9.87
  • Addition of the Peripheral Touch Controller (PTC) input driver with firmware and configuration files management
  • Addition of the new SAMA5D2 PTC EK board
  • Use of bounce buffer with SPI on ARM9 SoCs
  • fix SMC register offset for SAMA5D2
  • fix 10/100 Ethernet macb settings for SAMA5D3 by removing support for scatter-gather
