networking in fedora on Odroid XU4
by Michael Whapples
I have installed fedora 31 on my Odroid XU4 following instructions at
https://blog.pcfe.net/hugo/posts/2019-01-27-fedora-29-on-odroid-hc2/.
Mostly it seems to work, at least for what I want (IE. as a headless
server). There is one problem which I am having.
The built in network controller works most of the time. However I have
found if I do a reboot using shutdown -r now then the network card is
not found by linux (eg. output of lsusb does not show it and it is not
in output from ifconfig).
If I should shutdown using shutdown -h now and then power on by using
the power button, the network controller is detected and networking
works normally.
Some google searches suggest that people with the same model of realtek
network card, but in an external form, have had problems with their
network card because of power management features in Linux. If I check
/sys/bus/usb/devices/6-1/power/control then the value is "on" which I
believe means no power management/suspend. So seems like this may not be
the issue.
Does anyone have any suggestions on what may be wrong? Might this be a
kernel bug and if so where would be best to report it?
Thanks in advance for any help.

Adding support for the Pinebook Pro
by Dan Čermák
Hi list,
I have recently received my long awaited Pinebook Pro and wanted to
install Fedora on it.
Unfortunately, I haven't found concrete hints that the Pinebook Pro is
supported by the Fedora ARM spin. All I found was the
arm-image-installer package, but that one appears to support the
Pinebook (without the Pro) and armv7hl only.
What would it take to get a semi-official Fedora image for the Pinebook?
I'd definitely be willing to invest some time into this, as I don't
fancy running Debian/Arch/Android on that machine.
And on related matters: anyone knows if it is possible to put Silverblue
on an ARM machine?
Thanks in advance,
Dan

[PATCH] kernel build of dtc tool
by Steven A. Falco
I ran into a problem with multiple definition of yylloc in the dtc tool when trying to compile the kernel in rawhide via mock, because of a change in gcc10.
The attached patch allows me to build the dtc tool.
Where is the best place to submit this? It should go into the upstream kernel, but Fedora may want the patch before then. I'm not sure how to proceed.

Adding an RTC module
by Steven A. Falco
I'd like to add an RTC module to a Raspberry Pi. I see that uboot has some support for device tree overlays, but if I'm reading the code correctly, it doesn't seem to be enabled for the Pi.
Is it possible to use device tree overlays at this point, or am I better off building a custom kernel?

RPi 4
by Dirk Streubel
Hello Peter,
...
<https://lists.fedorahosted.org/archives/list/arm@lists.fedoraproject.org/...>
why is RPi 4 supported on Ubuntu early than in Fedora? Is there any
different in kernel in Ubuntu?
Yes, they use random vendor forks.
Can you say something about the timetable? Would it be possible to use
the PI4 with Fedora32, i mean official?
Or it this to early?
I have tested at at Friday with Rawhide at it has not worked. It always
stop at the same point of the Installation.

Was this a Debian box by chance? Or perhaps the paths are hard-coded
incorrectly in the sources? Then you will have to patch them in
fpcsrc/compiler/systems/t_linux.pas before building the cross-compiler.
The bootstrap binary contains multi-arch paths only:
/usr/local/lib/fpc/
/usr/lib/fpc/
=/lib;=/usr/lib;=/usr/X11R6/lib
=/usr/lib/aarch64-linux-gnu
=/usr/lib
On Fedora, there should be /usr/lib64 there. Not sure why the warning
about the missing crti.o file isn't printed, though.
Thanks,
